    Limits on Scores?

    How do you guys feel about limiting the scores for a hole. I.e a par 3 will be capped at 6 or 7. Par 4 at 8 or 9. And par 5 at 10 or 11.

    Personally, I think we should limit a score to double par. What do you guys think?

    I personally like the idea. It helps get me out of my patented blowup holes and speeds up play for the group I like the idea of double plus 1...i.e. the limit on par 3 is 7, par 4 is 9, par 5 is 11.
    How does it work on ProTee? Is a player able to essentially pick up on a par 3 hole when they reach 7 and they will be carded for the 7?
    Edit: Reason I like the double par score plus one is it allows for the multiple out of bounds shots. For example...I'm on a par 3 and I accidentally jack 2 tee shots out of bounds. I still have the chance to hit the green and 1 put for the 6 or 2 put for the 7....being capped at the 7.

      Double par + 1 sounds good. You can't just pick up the ball in an online game. This might be a bug since it works offline. But once you're at double par + 1, you shouldn't be taking your time to hit a shot or to make a putt. Just speed up at that point.

            considering this rule is because of me, I am ok also with it.

              Not because of you bubs. Others have needed it too.


              Ok. Limit will be Par + 1 from now on, starting with the Canadian Open.

                On second thought, double par is plenty.

                  i see the idea behind the score limit- but I know I play much worse when just trying to get through the hole-
                  but I dont think I play slow normally- that would be a nice feature for pro tee to add- the concede/skip
                  button.

                    I agree Tharn. I think there is an option for skip hol but it doesn't do well online. When playing offline you can s skip hole with no issues. Online it locks the game up.
