Guess I can’t make fun of LIV bois for not being in 72 hole shape. I was within 2 shots of the lead thru 54 holes and then just icarito’d my way into a smooth 86th in the 4th round.

The stupid angles on replays are egregious imho. They really shat the bed with this. Why mess with something that worked?

The Riddler’s Springtime Extraveganza - WEEK 5 UPDATE


We conclude a great week at Fruitland Farm, thanks to @mctrees02 and all those involved in the design and construction.

Individual flight winners:

  • Young Hitters: @Blakeg is back on top, but the pack is close, shoutout to @dfbuzzbeater for firing -50 overall.
  • C-Suite: @BoomBaby812 seems to live up to the name with a W
  • Strapped: @Jrembold nips @Tibbs in the playoff to prevent back to back wins, and becomes the 5th different winner in as many events in Strapped
  • LPCP: @jeffvalois does the Jeff name proud and gets his second W of the season as the only player under par in LPCP

We will spare you an awkward ceremony in a cabin, Raul was talking ideas with the team and started going on about a gold plated antique pistol, it got weird.

So anyway, I present to you the digital green jackets

(to the ANGC lawyer who will inevitably read this, this is just in good fun, please don’t nerf my chances at the ticket lottery, please and thanks)


@GaryK8 boldly uses a major as his qualifier, and will find himself in the C-Suite


We’re on to Saranac Post Club, in Saranac Lake, NY. The early weather forecast is notgreatbob.jpeg with high winds, but should taper off by the end of the event.

We got anything on xBox?

Tagging in @notjustinkaiser and @duffing_in_detroit

No worries though, if you want to get the rounds in now, just play to the course settings that are in the sheet/schedule

Set it up this morning should be available

Y’all Go 2 Hell & I’ll Go 2 Texas - WEEK 6 UPDATE


And we’re back, still coming down from The Riddler’s event but we hope that Saranac was a fun course.

Individual flight winners:

  • Young Hitters: @WhineyCracker52 hits back with another victory, this could be an interesting second half of the season at the top.
  • C-Suite: @enriquedlcm been knocking on the door of YH for a while, now gets the promotion with a score that would have been a podium in YH and not far off a win. Look for him to join the fight at the top soon enough. (@mctrees02 hopefully this didn’t also break anything in the strokes gained dept)
  • Strapped: @PullFade with his second win of the season after a couple lackluster weeks, good to turn things around
  • LPCP: @jrsnelly37 has been up and coming all season, finally breaks through to win in convincing fashion.

No new qualifiers for the week


We’re on to Nickosia Hills in the lovely country of Cyprus. I’ve been assured by our advance team that the dam is holding strong and the event will not be at risk of flooding. Moderate to high winds are forecasted which could make for interesting conditions, so ballstrikers will be able to separate themselves.

I’ve been on a constant rotation of controllers. Living in the swing calibration lab. Changing batteries. Trying anything to make it work. Some weeks I can’t even pull the trigger and others it looks like I know what I’m doing.

Oh, Dam - WEEK 7 UPDATE


It looks like the dam held up and everyone was able to enjoy some island time in Cyprus before coming back state-side.

Individual flight winners:

  • Young Hitters: @WhineyCracker52 goes back to back, he has found some kind of groove
  • C-Suite: @BoomBaby812 collects his second win of this season with solid play in round 3 to come out ahead
  • Strapped: @Jrembold gets his second win in 3 starts
  • LPCP: @jrsnelly37 is on a streak, 2 wins in a row

No new qualifiers for the week


We’re on to Greyfriar in the US Northeast. Wind is again in the forecast, so shot-shapers take note. Architect geeks may also see the inspiration from some real courses in this region.

In general news, I am finding my way back into some video game time, and will be qualifying this week after sitting out most of the season. I hope you all are ready to witness maybe the most mediocre play in history of the Refuge Tour.

Nothing set up on Xbox

You’d think we’d be able to figure this out by now… I’ll get it up now.

OK, we’re live. Gave us an extra day to play as well, since @Jeff_M usually takes a day to do his write-ups. TRY TO GET YOUR XBOX ROUNDS IN BEFORE YOU GO TO BED SUNDAY PLEASE.

Yes, usually I procrastinate as much as possible on Mondays. I do understand sometimes people play and then post scores later, but best practice to get things posted ASAP. I’m finally getting to a place at work where I can pawn off delegate more work, and I might actually get to take a proper lunch break, which I could use part of to finalize the weekly scores instead of waiting until evening.

Understood! My hopes of the caps lock message above is that people will just finish their rounds on Sunday, but this gives them a few extra hours if they need them past the GMT deadline.

DON’T PROCRASTINATE, FUCKERS.

The Nor’easter - WEEK 8 UPDATE


We are drawing close to the end of the 10 week season, and things are getting a bit more interesting.

Individual flight winners:

  • Young Hitters: @dfbuzzbeater is the latest to emerge from YH to take a win. @Juice and @mctrees02 round out the podium. One name is conspicuously missing.
  • C-Suite: @wseitz26 has been up and down a bit so far but finally breaks through
  • Strapped: @Jrembold with the hat trick and promotion to C-Suite. I would not be surprised to see him take down a dub in the higher flight, the scores have been there
  • LPCP: @jeffvalois also gets his third win here

In keeping with the current rules the players have been battlefield promoted. Just thinking out loud here but possibly for next season after week 5 the flights are set with no movement. Especially if there are prizes on the line (tbd, I’ve not worked out anything of the sort yet) I want it to be as fair as possible to give ample opportunity to earn more points. This will be something to discuss with the admin team.


@Jeff_M qualifies into LPCP.


We’re on to Coque Hill Creek with a bit of a reprieve from the high wind, take the breather before the end of the season. I hope you all like rocks.

I think I need in on this next season if it’s on Xbox.

We are! You are free to qualify and dive in now, or wait to next season. Thinking ahead, we’ll likely just carry over the same flights for our current players, and have a couple pre-season warm up events that are 3 rounds so we can open those to qualifiers if you prefer to wait.

I think @KyaKona beat me in a playoff if he’s in C-Suite, but maybe didn’t enter his scores.
