    After 2 days with no hockey I had a great practice round. Mind you, I hit autorewind when I had a distance that I wanted to practice..... usually 20, 60,80, 230-250 are the distances that I use autorewind for extra practice. Too bad you can't do that IRL......Just stand there from 230 out and just keep dropping balls. After about 10 or so...... say to your buddies,,,,, ok, I am ready to continue.... Game on. I really need to do that one day.

      Damn Sam, Keither you're my hero!!!!! You play some serious golf! I posted my first round today and am embarrassed! Chipping putting is totally killing me! Even if I figured that out I'm way out of my league here but still having fun! Looking forward to getting the kahunas to be able to actually play some rounds with like Sim players in the future.

        Keep playing..... you will get better. When you get the hang of chipping and putting, it will be an awesome day. What I use as a general rule of thumb.....putting..... for every inch of elevation give it an extra foot or so of distance...... putting down 10"... putt about 10 feet shorter. When I first started, I was really happy breaking 90 consistently. Then when I broke 80, I took a picture of the scorecard and sent it to my buddies. Now if I don't break 80, I wonder WTF went wrong. Dougie...... I do play a lot, TGC and the sim..... best money I have ever spent. I still feel like a kid a Christmas when playing in the man cave.

      Oh what might have been. Lip out on one and two and another on one of the holes on the front, two missed 7 footers and the capper was wedge into the water on 18 from middle of the fairway. At least it was way better than my first round.

          My putting was way off today. A couple 3 putts. Hitting my irons pretty well, but just too many mistakes on the greens.

              Nope, just played a practice 18 after putting in my id and looked at non tour recorded shots. No dice. Shot recording is set on and id is in my profile. Dang, shot 76 which is good for me.

              It works now, thanks. I was a bit worried when i saw shot 156 but then saw it included range shots. thanks again

            Looks like you played the wrong tournament. We found your scoring on a "Crooked Sticks" tournament. You need to play the Franklin Templeton Shootout.

              Ah, bummer, thanks. I just looked at the name of the course and knew this one was on that course. Rookie mistake. Had fun though. On the other point, shouldnt I see something on my page for shot recording?

                You can leave your name as is. What you're missing is the TGC USER ID in your FORUM PROFILE. Right now its set to your name. This should be the ID you find in the settings file. Looks like XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

                That is probably my issue too. I will fix that either tonight or tomorrow. Thanks.

              Fun course, shot my best score on Saturday, had everything working - unfortunately wasn't able to get round 2 in the books.

                Is there a chance I can finish my 2nd round today, the server was down in the afternoon and when I went to play it last night, I was a dumb F&$^*r and played the other crooked stick tournament.
                It does not make that much difference though if I can't. I have been totally sucking since I got my GC2. I guess that is what happens when you have a LM that actually reads your shot correctly. lol
                It has been a huge learning curve, but I am starting to get it together.
                Has anyone else had the same prob when they got their GC2?

                  LOL! Daddio - your self talk is right up there with mine.

                  Curious, what LM did you have before?

                  I had a GSA, never hit so many fairways and greens in my life as I did with that!
                  What system do you have?
                  I checked, I do have 13 hrs left and will do the second round later, hopefully I can break 100 lol

                  Daddio - I have a SkyTrak. I haven't had it that long. It seems pretty accurate thus far. It seems that either people love the ST or hate it. I'm still skeptical at this point. I haven't heard anyone not love the GC2 though. Good luck and just know that you're not the only one that can't hit a fairway.
