Week 3 is now open for scoring!!! photo credit @unccross

Nice job! Shaving a stroke a round is awesome, so hopefully it continues to help your game moving forward.

Good morning all, another soccer Saturday morning on tap. With storms moving in, we will be lucky to get a full game in. Hope everyone has a relaxing weekend have a grand Saturday

There are a handful of us from your neck of the woods. What courses do you usually play?

Absolutely! They have been added.

Yes, you may. I have added the broke 80 and ace badges. Congrats on the achievements and thank you , although most of the credit rightly goes to @GolfSpy_APH

Absolutely! I have added it and Congrats on the achievement

Jenny, Jenny who can I turn to?…

All in all the process took about 3 weeks from incident to replacement. In real time, a reasonable amount of time. In testing time, it meant half the testing period was spent waiting for a replacement.

In the interest of clarity, mine cracked in two places on the rear of the driver. The point of origin appeared to be where the crown met the sole and it spidered from there. The face still looked pristine when I shipped it back. I agree that the failure is most likely an anomaly, as none of the other testers have had any issues and I haven’t had any with the head I swapped @IndyBonzo for. Overall, I think the QI-10 is a good line of drivers and if you go that route, you’ll be pleased.

No. despite the additional inputs, the only data points I need for now, are: course name gross score slope course rating After week 5, this data will be used to determine a VCT round specific handicap that will allow for the placement of participants in the flights. we are working with the developer to clean up the submission form to reflect what is actually being used, but we are a few weeks out on the changes.

The course handicap is based off of a calculation involving your handicap index and the course rating and slope. The easiest way to get the number is google course handicap calculator, input the numbers and it will give you your course handicap for the course in question. However, as we are moving away from course handicap this season, you can enter your handicap index into that space and include slope and course rating with your post and that will give me what I need

The input for long drive was inadvertently disabled. It will be back, with the caveat that long drive for each flight will be recognized in the weekly recap, but won’t be worth any bonus points in the season points total. Also, an input for actual birdies or better will be added with the same intent.

Yes. With the caveat, that slope and course rating be included with each nine. Unless it is the front and back of the same course and tee box played in 9 hole increments. Then a slope and course rating for the combined 18 would be acceptable

This is accurate. We will see how it shakes out over the course of the season, but it should allow us to recognize good performances across the spectrum of skill levels on a weekly basis

Welcome to the VCT! I’ll need the slope and course rating when you get a chance, for the new format. Much appreciated!

I have 2 sets currently in my possession, that mostly fit the bill. Titleist T200/T150 combo set. I love the feel of the T150’s but the T200’s feel muted to me. They are great irons, but the search for “feel” led me to a combo set of ZX5/ZX7 MKII. It’s probably recency bias, but I am absolutely smitten with these irons and they will be my gamer set for this season. I’ve had a few sets of Srixon now, and these are the best irons Srixon has produced, bar none.

Just recently, I have opted to replace my 3w with a mini driver. The 3w was perfectly serviceable, but my driver has been a bit erratic to start the season. The mini-driver gives me a longer insurance policy, in case the driver is acting up any given round, plus hitting it off the deck isn’t too dissimilar to playing a 3w for a similar shot. Given the length of my home course (6300 yards), I don’t use a 3w all that often anyway.
