    You just made me feel small. I bow to thee.

    It's easier than it looks. There's a trick to every hole ... they all can easily be hole-in-one'd. Once you figure out the trick for each hole, you can hole-in-one it every time, so it just becomes a matter of slowly but surely figuring out the rest. The key is to never settle for two shots because there is always a repeatable way to get every hole in one.

    Also, at least on my old browser, you could rewind and play the same hole over and over to practice. That helps a lot when you're trying to get a particular hole down (so you don't have to play 13 holes just to get to #14 again).

    Interesting. That's an opinion I never had. I know there is a trick on every hole, but I got sick of playing 13 holes just to practice on 14 once.

    Check and see if it works on your current one. It doesn't work on mine any more. You right-click on the game while it's running, and then select rewind. Then select play. Great for practicing a hole to find the trick.

    As soon as I click on rewind, it sends me back to the start screen.

    At 43 (3-under going to the last hole). Ended up at 53. That, with three hole-in-ones.
    I had the right idea on 18 (lay it up against the barrier). Just couldn't execute.
     
  7. 31. This one's a lot tougher than the old one.

    Some of the shots are a little harder to guage, but if you know where to drop the ball, you'll be allright.

    Though I can't get lower than 28, yet.

  10. Phil - You are correct. They're just gussied up and out of order. No. 1 here was No. 6 before, I believe.
    42.

    Went from a 71 last night to a 41 tonight. Only holes where I needed three or more strokes were Nos. 3 (3), 6 (3), 13 (5), 17 (6) and 18 (3).
     
  12. I end up playing this again every time someone posts on here ... my best was a 41. Just when I think I'm going to beat that score I screw the pooch on 13, 15 or 18 ...
