Myself, Dunc and Paul completed Round 1 today and I think that one of the 3 long holes we all failed to hit the green on.

There are three long holes, namely 2, 15 and 17 and I would suggest with the wind in your face and/or soft fairways these could be unreachable.

I made a note of this on the list of useable courses for this tourney.
if the wind was set calm all would be makeable.

Maybe it's just me but I don't see the point of having unreachable holes in this comp

So far in Rounds 1 & 2 all three of the long holes have been reachable except the fact we didn't hit them straight. Accuracy is the key here.

I set the ctp Lee.
And yes the three mentioned holes were reachable as we found out playing the rounds.
Only problem was hitting them straight lol.
Also reachable due to altitude :laugh:

I agree.

Glad it's you, Dunc! I trust your judgement implicitly. :drinks:

There is no way to reach 17 with zero wind, and my two shots were directly in to a 7 mph wind which the game calls calm. Both shots were off a fairway, not a tee, so that shot is impossible. 284 yards in to a 7 mph wind, with 15 feet (5 yards +) of elevation cannot be reached.

If someone did it, please show me how. The club will not go that long off a fairway even if you crank it to the end of the meter, and put full loft.
