    I need at least 30 secs to aim and calculate the shot, and I do use a scale, but all calculations are mental, never did need a calculator for anything less than logarithms.

    Charlie, you keep talking about sandbaggers in MPC, but I never see 'em. I'm out there enough, so you'd think I would....

    Wow... after reading all these posts, it's starting to get a bit nasty isn't it....lol

    Well the first few posts are pretty spot on the mark...

    with the second half of all the replies... I think we all just have to take a deep breath and settle down a bit. This is a great online game and just remember peoples, it's only a game...mmm, ok, most of us do play for credits in the Tournys and it does get pretty serious (love it...lol), but just remember it's only fun and when it's not fun anymore it's  time to give it up.

    Even with real golf, there will always be somebody out there that fakes there scores... ya can't stop things like this. With anything in the golf world whether it be Real Golf or Online Golf, I always strive to do the best I can and if people don't do that, well good luck to em, because they are just kidding themselves.

    Now, back to Sandbaging..lol... I'm a Tour Master and yesterday I had an Ave. in the high 64's...Today after playing alot of Ready-Go's I'm now low 67's Ave..mmm..not happy about that... cause I felt that I was hitting the ball really good, but not getting anywhere eg; shot a 71 on Kiawah 18 hole Ready-Go, with 7 Birdies in the round, that's when I wanted to smash the screen....lol, go figure, But that's the game and it keeps me coming back. The only reason I would disconnect during the game(apart from the usual puter probs) is if I'm +10 walking onto the 4th tee. Is this good, don't know. I want a low Ave. and hopefully get to Legends status eventually.

    Well Good Luck Everybody and Good Golf

       But please everybody, Just keep Smiling and remember, It's just a game.

    You're a Tour Master.

    IF you ever make it to Legend and play a TM as a Legend, check back with us. I think you might have a change of heart.
