  1. I'm sure it will come with a box of tags. I'd actually like to see them extend the tag options as I have two hybrids, a full set of wedges and a wood in my bag. There's enough to make it work, but it would nice to see this expanded. It would probably mean that the tags are re-designed and not be backwards compatible. I'm sure the current tags only have 4-bit identifiers. However, if they went up to 8-bit, maybe they could also get a bit fancier with tracking brand as well as number. I find that tracking a set that evolves over time a bit clumsy. I'd like Set A to be red, Set B to be Blue, etc.
  2. I also ordered mine in the afternoon yesterday. Got the Midnight Blue, but all of the other colors seemed to be available. Maybe I wasn't paying close enough enough attention. I also agree with both the FOMO and support of SS. My current V3 is really only a few months old after they replaced the first one at no cost due to the tags not getting picked up. Their support is amazing and they really try to bring quality products at an affordable cost. The missed shots is somewhat annoying, but I find that I either didn't mark a penalty correctly, or duffed it so that it thought I was re-hitting a shot. My GPS is often wonky at my regular venue. I'll enjoy the new display and distance features, as well as not having to wait for the end of the round for scoring data ( I know, I shouldn't look...).
  3. Ok, here's yesterday's round for team . Gross Score: 119 Course HC: 36 Net score: 83 To par: +12 Net Birdies: 4 KP: nada LD: 199 Course is par 71 as well. That should put us in at a total of +17 over par.
  4. I give up trying to fix my posts. The editor widget is misbehaving so badly, it's posting all of the same regurgitated data no matter what I do.
  5. This had the potential of being a decent round, but I had a couple of disaster holes that ruined it. Mostly poor putting and getting stuck in the sand. I royally screwed up on #4, as I had to option to pull the ball out of the bunker due to it being a lake, but took an extra swing at it anyway. Not that it would have saved the hole. Also, they've done something different at Glendoveer that makes the greens much tougher. They roll forever and have a bit of break that they never had before. Turning a birdie putt on #3 into a 6 (it was really 5 putts, entered the score wrong. Had hit it onto the green to 7 ft) was a total bummer. #11 could have been ok, but 4 sand shots and 4 putts is an instant snowman, no approach needed! I did learn from the greens and did better on yesterday's round.
  6. Date 03/16/2023 Course Name Eastmoreland Gross Score 137 Course Handicap 44 Gross Strokes over/under par 65 Net Score to Par 21 Net Score 93 Net Birdies or better 4 Longest Drive 197 This round reminds me of the Hall & Oates hit "Ball-Eater!". 'O-o here she comes, watch out boy she'll chew you up!' I think I lost 7 balls, including two of my prized and beloved 348 Protos. The first one was on hole one second shot. Hit a 4 wood, bounced off the cart path on the right of the green and slammed into the blackberries along the fence line. No hope of finding it. Then it was at a rate of one per hole for the next two holes. The last four I lost on the back 9 on 16 and 17, which both have some serious water in play. Still a natural bird on #5 after a mishit was enough to keep me coming back. It inspired the Friday round in order to get revenge.
  7. Date 03/17/2023 Course Name Glendoveer G&TC East Course Gross Score 128 Course Handicap 36 Gross Strokes over/under par 55 Net Score to Par 19 Net Score 92 Net Birdies or better 8 Longest Drive 216 This had the potential of being a decent round, but I had a couple of disaster holes that ruined it.

  8. Date 03/19/2023 Course Name Glendoveer G&TC West Course Gross Score 119 Course Handicap 36 Gross Strokes over/under par 41 Net Score to Par 5 Net Score 83 Net Birdies or better 2 Longest Drive 199 Added my rounds in reverse chronological order. It was a series of progression, towards the better! Strangely, my last round didn't get me much other than a better score. Nothing spectacular stood out as far as net birdies goes, but had a lot of good things happen in the round. I wound up joining another single and had a great time playing with him. He gave me a great observation that should straighten my driver out quite a bit. Was hitting a lot of good draws and didn't duff it nearly as much as I usually do. Had a couple of holes where things fell apart a bit, but otherwise was happy with how the round went. Dropping 20 strokes from the beginning of the week is nice. Also, pace of play was quick. We wound up finishing at 3:30, mostly because the group in front of us on the back nine was playing slow. The first half we wrapped in 1:09, took a bit of a break to grab some brewskies and took a leisurely 2:15 on the back 9.
  9. Great! Here is #2, which is really #1 as #1 doesn't really count being a practice round and all. Course S/R/P: 66..5/117/73 Gross: 128 ESC: 120 KP: 7 ft LD: 216 yds. NB: 8 Net Score: 92 Net to Par: +19 What else ids missing?
  10. I actually played three rounds and got better at each one. My first was atrocious. The second was still a very negligent +20, but had some good other stats. The one that I played today I'd give to @JFish350. Not so many side stats, but got me in at more like +11. Still pretty stinky. Either of you let me know if you still want my cards. Mr. M
  11. I've got a round from today to pair with you. Though we weren't playing the same course today, I think today's weather was perfect aside from a few sprinkles. I don't think I have many markers to contribute, but it was the overall best round I had in the last 30 days. MrM
  12. I have one, but it's probably not as good as Connor's. I acutally played three rounds this week, but two of them were very under performed. Please take the better score. Team "Who Let the Dogs Out" could be kept in the kennel. However, I did hit my best drive, got a 7 ft KP, and had 9 net birdies. LMK
  13. You said you were looking for a partner. Since we couldn't play the same course today, I do have a score to match yours. I'll post it below.
  14. By my count today @Golf2Much, @Vegan_Golfer_PNW, and myself are looking for a partner to match with. I have an extra round to give. It could be good, it could be bad. If it isn't needed I'll partner up with @Eddy Dragonetti.
