2015 TGC World Tour Par 3 Challenge - 1-2 weeks starting 11/22

[SFR]

Just to confirm Craig, which of the two were to be the one to use? One has Beta in the title.

Don't think there are any issues with design as it is great, just harder than you would think but then again to score well on a par 3 course is not easy.

There were a couple major drops off the edges around greens and make for tough recovery shots, so practice is needed. Also the elevation drop on some, you need to know what to hit. I think one was 190 plus yards but with the drop, a 7 iron made it.

Here is hole by hole layout and some tips to playing the course:

Please jot down any issues with the course and let me know. I can correct and republish after we finish. Unfortunately you have to republish the course again, you can't just edit it and replace it. So you end up with multiple versions that show up in search which is confusing.

Change of plans. We're just doing 2 rounds for this one. Please add Friends and practice playing online with somebody.

Practice round tonight. Anybody?

Do you want us to make the changes with protee on penalties? I thought latest interface set everything for us.

No, the only thing you need to set is the greenside bunker penalty to 40. Leave everything else at zero. The game will automatically have rough and heavy rough penalties.

GC2 users set everything to default of zero.
