The setters have a difficult job as it is...But when players moan consistently with out knowing the fact it becomes almost impossible. our setters are very good I wish I could say the same about some of the new players

So, I'm a new player? You know, if you have an issue with something, and never say anything, how will anyone know? I'm not moaning. I'm pointing out the absurdity of the some of these tournaments. Affo would say ice covered fairways and ice covered greens are okay. I understand that. He never misses a snap. Apparently he never hits a perfect snap in to a green and he's hitting it short to bounce on a hard fairway to a hard green, and his always bounce straight ahead. When I do it, they take a left turn in to a bunker. So his opinion here is moot. It doesn't count because he doesn't experience (along with about 20 others) anything like a moaner such as me does. Even when I hit a perfect snap.

Don't get me started on designers. How do they get out beta with some of the unfinished stuff? Today, we were playing this new Fall Lakes, which is supposed to be real course. It it is, the designer has made his own design, because no member there would play a fairway shot on #2 that can't stay on the fairway. I hit a perfect snap to within a foot of the left side of the fairway, and it ran to the rough on the other side.

I wasn't aware about who sets up everything, thanks for letting me know. So, its not a tough job, just go through a course list, find a settings that YOU like, like strong breeze, hard/hard ans submit it? Easy cheezy?

No more experience based information from me, don't want to be called a moaner. Geez, you guys are thin skinned.
