    If you're one on those dudes who already thinks he's mastered the game...

    Follow these conditions for every round you play:

    All club sweetspots at 20% or lower ... you must have "advanced" clubs to do this.

    Always play on black tees with hard or expert pin placements.

    Never play a game with "calm" wind conditions. Always set it up for "windy" or higher.

    Green speed fast, rough long, fairway slow.

    Lower all your golfer's attributes (you need a shitty round or two to accomplish this). Make sure none of your golfer's attributes are over 7.5.

    If you do all of this and still shoot under par, I congratulate you on your gaming bad assedness.

    even with golfer ratings high, those settings would be awfully mean.

    I'm hoping we get there at some point in this thing.

    but then again some guys are shooting +40 with our current settings. lol

      I'm just talking about those guys who are already bragging about their scores, not us mere mortals.

      I follow those rules myself and I stink, stink, stink.

      The only rule I haven't been able to follow is the 20% sweetspot for all the clubs. I only do it with my driver right now. Haven't been able to do enough to buy advanced woods, wedges and irons.

      My golfer's power rating right now is 5.3. LOL. My overall is about 5.9.

      I had it at nearly 8 before all those rule changes I forced on myself.

        We definitely shouldn't be playing on anything but the black tees. I suck at the game but driving is so easy that it's dumb not to have it on anything but the hardest setting there.

        Fuck expert pin placements though. I already can't putt with fast greens and whatever pin placement it is that we're using.

          Seriously Lan, get an advanced driver somehow, go to the club tuner and change your sweetspot to 20% or so. Then tell me driving is easy.
          Yes, you will still hit fairways more often than not, but you're gonna shank drives you've never shanked before.

              Like I said in the last thread that you ranted on, I already did it. Driving's just plain easy regardless. It's not that hard to aim at the center of the fairway and hit a straight shot. *shrugs*

                Yeah, I'd like to see the conditions change from round to round as well.

                  agreed 100%.....every tourney should be black tees.

                  i also agree that we should have some different settings as we go. Like the wind and rain. Fast greens, long rough....If we make the woods and iron shots harder (which we should) it would be nice to balance it out with easier pin placement.

                    I can't even hit greens in regulation because of having such crappy ratings and clubs :ko:

                            im on the page as zalf, itll be harder to find pairings, and honestly, making it harder to find pairings will only kill the activity in this league
