3rd round, -7... I'm getting better and liking this version more and more.

-7....

Will probably start with the Tournament tomorrow and embarrass the club.

Even with some of the aides enabled I´m all over the greens, not to mention my abysmal putts.

But I really like this game!

I stunk the joint up with my opening round. I might play a bit and try and get some done tonight or later this week. I need a huge handicap, because I suck.

If you add any dailies, I'd recommend making them short. Maybe 1 or 2 rounds of 9 or just 1 round of 18.


I'm hopeless without the caddy for putting, and Tour Pro is really challenging me, as is obvious by my tournament scores.

Highest score wins, right?

Collector's ed. here, plus the Emerald Dragon.

BTW, I have the original game. I wasn't sure if I'd like it so I didn't splurge on the special edition. Kind of wish I had now.

I'm average at best. I can make a few birdies but every round I'll make a triple-bogey or a double-bogey or two. But, I love the challenge. I'm not finding anything unfair. It's just a matter of practicing and getting a feel for different types of shots. I just LOVE what they've done with the short game. It's really challenging and forces you to put a little thought and creativity into they types of shots you attempt. There's nothing really gimicky about the game, which for me (a long-time fan of the Links series on the PC and someone who plays golf in real life) is very important. It's not perfect, by any means, but it's getting more realistic with every release. It still has a ways to go to get to the level where Links was but they're clearly going in the right direction here.

+10 after my first outing. Wow what a difference no caddy makes! Still fun and should get better as I go on. I did get a couple birides, a few bogeys, some double bogeys and I think I got 2 pars!

So far it's just how I play for real. I'll be sailing along making my share of birdies and pars and then wham! , a double bogey. It gets in my head so I start making the hero swings and it just gets worse : ) After about 2 holes of that I settle down again. Jeez!.

Yeah I was going along and sitting around +3 and then I had 2 holes where I couldn't hit the damn ball striaght! It probably doesnt help that my created guy has low stats.
