Well, early prognosis is...you are a genius!

Out of a bunker, aimed low, hit the ball within 2 foot of the hole.

Same issue. I don't understand the short game. When you are using irons and drivers, it seems that the top of the swing arc is the distance you're aiming marker is at.

When you are using your wedges, there's no way that is the case. I'm really inaccurate with these shots. Sometimes they are great, sometimes I find myself chipping fringe to fringe like 3 times.

Mess around with different shot types as well. When around the green I tend to go to my flop shot a lot to avoid over hitting it. The short game is all about feel. If you look at the meter and think "there's no way I should hit it that hard" chances are you are right.

It's almost funny when someone joins a game online because you can immediately tell who hasn't played many rounds yet by how they play around the greens. The front 9 they will go back and forth over the greens almost every hole.

I'm about to hop onto the game. I'll be inviting whoever is on to a party and to get into a couple games together.

I just posted a plus 17 on the club daily at Els club due to short game woes. Oh, and stubbornly trying to blast a long iron out of a fairway bunker with the lip towering over me. Which, tangent, is a major improvement in this version, the visuals really show course undulations and elevation changes much more dramatically than past years.

As to short game, I need to practice at our cc house difficulty level. Currently, its really frustrating.

I LOVE IT!

You think we could get a roster of gamertags? Or is there a way to look at all of our members tags in game?

[thedudedominick]

In game you can go to the member list.

Edit: We are officially a top 100 club now. Should move up quickly as we add more members. Still about 8 or 9 spots left.

Anytime you are out of the rough or sand.... Hit low on the shot meter.... do not go past the bottom of the ball however until you practice a few.... Glad I could help a bit...

Ohhh.. Tip #2.. Treat all chips, pitches, flops, ect. like a putt in terms of how you swing... that could help too...
