Re: Forthcoming Tournament list

Hey funkyjudge,
No one has answered this, yet?
From the GL Golf main menu, click on "Tournament"
Then click on the big white button in the upper right, "Upcoming Tournaments and Previous Results"
That takes you to the tournaments homepage. I've got it Bookmarked.

If you are interested in them, please see my earlier post "Rattlesnake Tips," on page 1.

Re: *** GL Golf Suggestions ***

This is to Jake and all of your programmers [or is that just Jake?]. I thought that the new trees added a bit more realism to the view as I played the course. But I gotta say that nothing beats the new water. Not only is the color more pleasant & realistic, but the refection is truly amazing. I find...

Re: GL Golf Tips/Strategies

Some holes have a "secret" way to play them. All tips assume NO WIND. Caveat Emptor: My name is NOT at the top of most best round lists. Breaker's Coast # 8 1W driver (300y) 2 levels of punch, aim left of tree straight ahead. DR driver (330y) is the same except use 90% of full strength. The DR2 driv...

Re: GL Golf Tips/Strategies

That is a very generous offer, but one I will have to decline. If the program malfunctions, that's one thing, but this was solely due to my inattention. Let's just say I called a penalty stroke on myself in each of the first three rounds. By the way in my third round the tree that guards the corner ...

Re: GL Golf Tips/Strategies

Thanks for the tip on the Beta version; I'll get to play my last round with the correct version. That should give me 1 or, with luck, 2 strokes less.

Re: GL Golf Tips/Strategies

I guess a 330 driver is not necessary. The only hole where it is truly useful is #11, especially into a strong headwind. The 330 driver gives you a better chance of putting for an eagle. Question on # 5. Most of the time I have found it to be an unreachable par 4, but once or twice it was like it wa...

Re: GL Golf Tips/Strategies

Eddie, I've shot a few low scores and I welcome the competition. In fact I've posted how I play a few of the courses, although I haven't updated them since I posted them. I may have made a few improvements. I use the DR (330 yards) driver and I carry a 1-iron instead of the SW . I use the PW for gre...

Re: GL Golf Beta Program

On hole 2 of Hammond Heights if you hit a 3-wood with a loft of 3 (and no wind) from the tee, some strange things happen. Not that you would ever hit that club from there, but a miss-hit might put you in the same situation.

Hi Walter, Regarding your suggestion to have a heads up when a new subscription is due: If you click on "GL Golf" (next to the apple in the menu bar) and choose "About GL Golf," there is a message just above "Close This Screen" in the lower right corner. This message on my computer reads, "Thanks fo...

Re: GL Golf Beta Program

Hammond Heights looks like a good, challenging course that make the player think, and rewards a "pure" shot. On 17 I did experience a "ghost" tree. The large pine that protects the corner of the fairway disappeared until I tried to hit through it. It happened to me once in practice mode. I don't kno...

Re: Specific Hole Bugs

I was playing the 3rd round of the Ravenswood PRO tournament when I had to save the game before I hit my 1st shot. When I returned I clicked on Resume Game and was told I had to have 14 clubs in my bag. I clicked on the Tournament button and then the play tournament and was told to use Resume Game b...

Re: GL Golf Beta Program

Vince, I'm wondering if the phenomenon you described happened after you Resumed a round. I also have had this happen to me, but I don't recall the course let alone the hole. I am confident, however, that it has happened on more than one course, and on more than one hole. I'm also confident that it h...

Re: GL Golf Beta Program

On the 8th hole my approach was short of green. I was presented with a wedge and there were no grid lines on the green, but the pin disappeared.

Re: GL Golf Beta Program 2.29

I played a round. Without quitting GL Golf I clicked on "Play Golf" for a 2nd round. When the first hole appeared ALL of the text was missing. No wind speed (the arrow was there), no hole information (distance, par, etc., no club information, and after sinking the putt there was no score (eagle, par...

Re: The super-low scores players are shooting.

I just saw the posting of a 31 (-42) on Ravenswood by ted.petrie!
With these incredibly low scores I'm wondering if somehow 9-hole scores are being posted as 18.

I did an analysis of shooting a 32 (-39) on Rocky Grove. Here is what I consider to be the most likely scorecard for this score.

Re: GL Golf Tips/Strategies

Hi Lee, I would add just one comment to Jack's reply. If you are in the "Normal" level of difficulty, when you hold the shift key down, it shows the approximate path of the shot, including the height of the trajectory. As you increase the "punch" using the "e" key you will see the trajectory is lowe...
