No, but you could learn how to read. He clearly stated I don't know how to play the game the way it was meant to be played (on advanced), and I stated that I in fact do know how, and am one of the better ones at it, and thus am in a position to fairly state how difficult (or in this case, not difficult) the game actually is. If it's intended to be a sim, they did a terrible job of it. Go to the official Links forum at Xbox.com and read the posts by the project leader. They clearly put more time going after the arcade gamer than they did the sim lover. They wanted a piece of TW's market so they made the game accessible to everyone, and when you do that, someone is going to come away unhappy, and in this case it's the sim fans that did.
But I'm not concerned with the opinions of other Links players who think the game is great as it is, because it's not. And I'm heartened to know that the project leader for the game realizes they dropped the ball on the single player mode, and on the AI, and he also realizes the game needs at least one more difficulty setting, needs more realistic play out of the rough and more than one lie in the sand etc etc. And he wouldn't be adding all that to the next iteration of Links Xbox if he didn't agree that the game in its current state wasn't too easy on the most difficult of settings. So yeah, I think the rating of Links by the reviewer is absurdly high, especially considering how much they're going to add to the game next time, which if they do, would truly earn the game a 92.

Okay so whoopie your one of the best damn players, you want a cookie?
I could care less if you know the Pope. You stated you didnt like the review and I and others have stated we did.
No one is going to change your mind, but why take the fun away from others who could probably care less how much of a sim it is, and just want a fun game? Everyone else cant have your godlike abilites, so us has beens need to play with the other has beens.
Maybe someday Ill see you on a golf course next to the real Tiger Woods.
