I have just finished a round at Augusta with everything cranked to 11-  gusty wind, firm, stimp at 14 and I shot a magnificent 108 ^_^ :blink:

Yes, you did read correct One Hundred and Eight little ol' shots round the Augusta National and I loved every minute of it on a course that I don't normally like.

I must have missed it in just about the worst place on every hole and watching chips and putts roll off the green and 40 yards back down the fairway in the case of the 9th was just devine

I am not the most proficient at the game- I struggle to beat par most days- but have a good grasp of the mechanics and having to manufacture shots- pitches, chips and bunker shots- I saw more sand than Laurence today, which I found a way to play them pretty darn good (see another posting :D) was a delight

 

I have been a bit un interested in PG recently and have even dabbled on the Dark side with TGC and even dusted down LInks 2003 (which runs a treat on my iMac btw) but have been energised by this and have got my funk back

I bet no one expected a positive thread after a 108 but shows what little things please little people :P :D

I am going out on a limb here and gonna fasion a bet that you are a golfer and not a gamer.. welcome to the wonderful world of golf. Wish you many rounds of enjoyment and wait till you get that even par round w/things cranked...not like playing in real life but I swear rts has me doing the same things that aggrevate me w/my real life game.

I too love the challenge of the game and the customizable difficulty settings. Sounds like you had a challenge at augusta. I'm playing pro but with only the main view camera using rts-m. I kept trying tour pro but can't seem to have consistency with it. Are there any rts-m players playing tour pro? I'm guessing yes.
