      OK so I've played my first tournament and my first 3 rounds - great fun!

      MAN around the greens are tough, I pitched from one side of the green to the other ALL day long and bashed 10 foot putts 10 foot by ALL day long! Still fun though, and some hole outs from a far!

      I must admit, reading about SHOT recording got my thinking "ma,it cant be THAT hard" well............ mines isn't working. From what I can tell

      Forum user name: dg_1983
      Forum TGC ID = copied from USER ID in the settings file
      Forum TGC nickname = dg_1983
      From settings notepad; TGC User Name: David Green
      From settings notepad;TGC USER ID "xxx-xxxx etc"
      TGC nickname = dg_1983
      SHOT RECORDING ON in settings


      What have I missed? I'm hoping the _ is causing issue, rather than a user error!!! (I think somewhere it _ is not allowed, perhaps in the skytrak TGC interface??)



      I'm hoping everyone found Augusta a little bit tougher than usual??

        Looks like you are on the tour website as dg1983. So I am thinking that in TGC game you are listed as dg1983 instead of dg_1983. They all have to be the same. Check it out..... There is another guy on the tour website with an underscore... so I don't think that is the problem.

      Played the final round today with the Masters on. I just shot my second round ever in the 60s. I shot a 68 today with a birdie on 18. That was a lot of fun!

          Well done blechbox! I planned on making a run at you in the 3rd round for the gross standings and played terrible. Pressure got to me. What happened to tkotts? Did you tie him up so he couldn't finish his rounds?

            I've changed my gimmes to 3 footers. It does matter especially on greens like Augusta. I missed 3 or 4 putts last week between 4 and 6 feet. Still gotta match line and speed!

            Hopefully the proposed changes to handicapping will help with the interest level a bit. Sorry to hear about the injury. I've been dealing with tennis elbow for about a month now and the only thing that seems to help is not playing. Not happening though.

          I really dont understand why the lies aren't dictated by the game. This Half a club for light rough and an extra club for rough is way to easy.. Sometimes you get a crappy lie, thats golf. Cant hit a 3 wood 230 out of heavy rough onto the green IRL! It would really put a premium on fairway tee shots, as it should!

          Not trying to start a movement or anything, just an opinion. would like to have a patch for myself.

            Easily my favorite course , Have to hit a draw ,fade, all the shots, managed to get back to even par after a shaky first round. Big fun though, to see shots on TV that you are about to hit or just hit. BIG fun!!!

              Couldn't agree more Boo! I need the course to tell me the shape, for better or worse. Augusta does that. Plus my pull draw works fairly well most of the time.

                And how long ago was that mthunt ?? I'm guessing, only about 2 years ago.
