rossthejambo Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Did you only use the putter? Cheeky git. I'm alright up to the green, that's where it all goes baws up. Think if i was actually good at putting it would have lasted longer but don't want to take anything away from robbo214, he played well.

jambosean75 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 What's a dormie? A tied hole? dormie means your X holes up with only the same amount to go. your opponent would need to win every remaining hole to tie, they can't win.

I don't know if this will help you at all, but what I do is putt using the reverse view. Try it if you don't already. I find it easier personally. Sorry for the cheeky dig. Mark.

Dunks Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Just got a hole in one on the Ocean Course - anyone up for a pint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmiyaRomanova Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Thanks to portobellojambo1 for a good game - and for having the good grace to allow me to start that game again after it became apparent two shots into the first hole that my mouse wasn't working - two shots wildly off to the right as a result of not being able to click the meter to stop. One swift reboot later, all was fine. Anyhow, game result is that I progress, 5 & 3. Thanks again, pj1! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portobellojambo1 Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 ArmiyaRomanova just won 5 & 3. Well played and thank you. Think I'll have to spend the vast majority of this two week holiday getting to grips with how to play on fast greens, and what the difference between a slope on a green and a cliff are.

ArmiyaRomanova Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Think I also need to reconsider my driving - even allowing for the different tees, pj1 consistently outdrove me. Hmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmiyaRomanova Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 PS. Playing Unlimited balls makes alot of difference, my driver meter goes about 100mph! The real difference is in the approach shots for me - no spin on the ball, so constantly overrunning the holes and facing longer putts. Should make for an interesting competition though...

ArmiyaRomanova Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 just got a hole in one on the first hole of a Blitz game - finished with 249,000 points. Doubt I'll ever match that again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should make for an interesting competition though... I actually found it a bit mixed. If the wind was against the unlimited balls stop not too bad. If its wind behind however i was having to land the ball on the front of the green and let it roll. I think we were a bit lucky that the direction of the wind at most holes in our game wasn't too bad, dont think we had many holes with wind behind and the pin right at the front of the green.

Bigsmak Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Why did you decide to play with the unlimited balls? Whats the point of practising and getting better then changing the goalposts... Anyway.. I couldn't play this week as I'm busy... But I will play the winner if you want... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I do and it makes a huge difference. The ball is 'usually' more affected by the slope at the end of the putt when it is moving slower than at the start when you can play through the break (this is true in real life) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
