We're in lovely Italy this week - and the players will be pleased that the Metamoura course is not as long as The Mantis...

Round 1 Didn't get screenie as greenshot went down, still having a few issues with computer and internet, I'm sure it keeps glitching as my son says its effecting his gaming too. We get full fibre in this week and i will be putting my computer in for service and maybe a new card.
Shot a level par 72 with 4 bogies and 4 birdies, still getting used to these master clubs but I'm improving and enjoy playing them......... so far lol.

These Master clubs are going to be the death of me - I may fall back to beginners  |

ROUND 1Not an easy course, very happy with a bogey-free round. Was never in any trouble and missed a few putting chances along the way. Could be a good week...

Round 2 Just when you think you have sussed the tempo on these clubs boom a very slow happens, but its getting less and less, the main problem with my game is the putting, if i could putt i might cause some damage. Saying this i would have been happy with an under par round on the first tee, so I'm happy for now.  |

Maybe you could borrow Bob's little clubs for a round   Les I think we can ride this pony for awhile until he bans us ROTFLMFAO |

Long time no see everyone! pleasantly surprised the tour is still chugging along! I had the chance to shake off a little rust last week but I suppose there is still more to loosen up, so I apologize if I have some wild swings in scoring! the fast greens got to me as I forgot how punishing those down hill putts can be! and whats all the talk about master clubs? everyone making the switch or just messing around?

Hi Jared, good to see you back buddy!!
Ian and Les got bored with the normal clubs and needed a new challenge, so stupidly decided to switch to Master Clubs. As you can tell from their scores they're finding it a little tough - but they are persevering!!!
Personally, since I changed to playing on a new laptop I can actually hit the ball in the general direction I want it to go - and haven't enjoyed the game so much for a long time!! So I won't be switching to Master Clubs anytime soon - although I might consider it if it sorts out my putting problems!!

ROUND 3I've taken a shine to this course. Had an early bonus on #3 when my 7-iron approach found the cup for an eagle 2, and another eagle on #14 gave me another boost. But my only errant drive of the round cost me a shot on #16, although I did finish well with birds on #17 and #18. For a change my putter did quite well. Will it last? We'll have to wait and see...

forgive me but here are rounds 2-4 - my biggest hurdle coming back has to be putting and short game. I just need to keep grinding and get a used to the different speeds and slopes again!

rd 4 totally forgot screen shot - But 57 is way outa my skill set on any settings Totally agree 57 is way out of my skill set under any settings and clubs, no idea whats happened to the game i used to play its just not there anymore especially the putting, i cannot putt to save my life anymore, i putt better in real golf than i do on here. Might even join the green chippers and floppers seems there is plenty going on. Anyhow Round 4 took Ian and Fap with me for company, both Ian and i had a poor start most of mine was terrible tempo and putting, gathered the tempo on last 10 holes but putting was poor. Pleased i managed to score under par for the 4 rounds however with these Master clubs. Onto next week to try again  Ian's card here too Bob. |

ROUND 4Solid round, no bogeys, putting still a concern though. Enjoyed the course this week.
