OMG, this game can be so frustrating! I can't seem to break 80 no matter what I do. If I wanted this kind of humiliation, I'd go out on the real courses more often. Anybody else struggle with some aspect of the game? My putting is particularly woeful. I am *not* the 0 handicap the game seems to thin...

I loaded up the game, and played Jim Hall's latest creation. It's a good one, a very strong par 70, with one of the par 5's being a true three shot hole. The blends are very even and smooth, and the terrain shaping is finely touched. I particularly enjoyed the 18th hole. Well done, friend.

So, I recently updated my golfer from "standard" to "advanced." I was getting very frustrated with only carrying a 3 iron about 170 yards. But I'm still noticing my shots are, in general, short on carry, and long on run out. Is it common with anyone else for a drive to only carry...
