Stopping to post must have interrupted your flow.
6 is well impressive, double my tally, although one was in a mega cup and another I missed my impact, so I've only had one true hole in one.
Managed to somehow get to 90th on the mega cup tourney with a -9. Don't know how I managed that good a position, mega-cup putts are easy. If you land on the green within 5 metres it's surely an easy putt, especially on Karagayarayamamma.
If you go in to video library the game automatically records any special shots such as chip ins, eagles and albatrosses(?)
Should have saved you hole in ones
I want to get into a position where I feel like I'm competing with others and not just moving up with average scores because other people have missed a day or stopped playing or something.
Did well on the 9 holers today. A 90s and a 50s finish.Â
But whoever decided on the Legacy of Golf Links with the +1 Bunker is a sick bastard.
Was doing ok on the front 9, came in with a +3, all thanks to the 8th (the one with the horrendous green surrounded by 4 bunkers)
Pulled a +17 on the back 9. +15 of that was made up on 12-14. I'm proud of myself for not rage quitting. Not so proud of the 167th out of 167 finish
Yeah, that was hard work, 3 pars, 2 bogies and 4 birdies on the front 9 and exactly the same coming home, so relatively pleased with 4 under, would probably have been much worse without the mega cup.
Finally broke into the top 1000 yesterday. Two good days bumped me up over 60 places and I ended up in the 980s.
Had decent rounds in the 9 holers, then flumped to a disappointing -5 on the 18 hole Maple Leaf because of some dreadful Pars when I should have birdied, and a bogey and double bogey due to hitting bunkers. Sigh.

Does anyone else find Kagarayagamayama a lot harder than Harvest Hills? I don't know what it is about the greens of Karagayamamma I just find them really hard to read. Especially that one that's all dappled with shade from a tree. And of course there's the dreaded hole 18 par 5.
There's one hole I particularly hat about Kagurayama, but I've sussed it now.
It's the hole with the green at the top of the hill, with a tree and a rock halfway down the hill next to it. If I miss the green I normally end up down by that rock and it takes me several swings to get back out.

Yeah if you mess up on that one you get impossibly trapped at the bottom of that steep verge. There's nothing like that on Harvest Hills. Not that steep, anyway.
Keep going, guys! I do feel the burn some days, but this thread keeps me going. I've actually got worse over the last week. One day I scored three 4 unders.
Went through the back of the green on the first hole of Maple Leaf straight off the tee today.
Might experiment with clubs and balls. Stuck with infinity for ages, but maybe time for a change.
They're some good scores ZMM. Can't seem to get past -16 on either Maple Leaf course.
Did manage to get a -2 on Reg Legacy of Golf Links today on the final gold challenge.Â
Didn't get the birdie on last hole for the crown though annoyingly.
Ye guys are waaaay ahead of me in the rankings. Only broke into the 1500s today
The last couple of days I've been stroke playing (oh behaaaave!) and concentrating on trying to beat round scores where I thought I could do better, see the -8 and -9 on Harvest Hills? I did those tonight. My previous bests were around the -5 -6 region.

Good stats, guys! I realise that I've been playing the game all wrong by using Infinity clubs and balls. Cranked out Big Airs yesterday so will see how I fare with those.
