Yes it is tough. I played my rounds with Z as I am away this week. Didn't play any practice rounds so just winged it. Thanks for playing with me Z. Good luck to all of you. I will be eatching the matches on Twitch.

Anyone playing on Sunday? Looking to play sometime after 10 CST...

[Libbing]

I can play in the afternoon. Not sure what time yet, but will post when morning commitments end.

[bcgc0918]

SSShheeww. Afternoon is looking pretty good right now. Had a late one tonight. Forgot about the time change. I will be ready any time after 12 CST. The last pot was worth $240 after 4 carries. So I had to stay to claim it.

[Libbing]

Nice! How about 2:00 Eastern / 1:00 Central (on the new clock!)

[bcgc0918]

LOL sounds great see ya then.

[bcgc0918]

Nice round Mike.

Geez I never even noticed Bubba put up 2 dang good rounds. That is going to be tough to beat. Schweet scores there my friend.

Jebus! Just noticed I am down to a -1 HCP now in time for this tourney after my stellar 73 and 78 T6 performance at Doral. Would have figured it would go up. I really think we should be capping the HCP at 0 or start flighting. Pretty much unwinnable for me this point forward as people are winning tourneys a 9 under par and such. I've shot exactly 3 rounds under par ever on my Protee ever.

[Maverick]

I can't believe I need to explain this again. Every hdcp system uses the course rating and slope. It's more than just your score over par. If you shoot well on an easy course, it might not effect it much. If you do well on a tough course, it will make a big difference.

It's about your potential. Not your average score. Look at mine. I shot like shit but it stayed at a 2.0. Tom played better than me but it stayed at 3.0 for him. Maybe I should be complaining too?

The idea is to even it out so everybody has a chance. You think your's should have gone up to a +2? Let's take you and me for example, since I'm a 2 now. You're longer off the tee and with every club. And pretty much a better player than me. I've only had one round under par btw. If you're a 2, why should I even bother playing?

I really which we had the ability to use different tees. Or if we had more people playing, I would like to have two flights. 1 flight for scratch non hdcp golfers that can carr
