As this went free* on PS Plus, I've been giving it a quick go and actually enjoying it, great balance between sim & arcade, definitely more forgiving than The Golf Club games. Anyway, I setup a society 'Boards.ie Club' with a current event, Thieves Landing, a new course created by other devs and the community. Haven't tried it my self so should be something new for everyone.

Feel free to join the society and put up a score on the course, the event is open for 7 days.

Have you set rules for putting/difficulty etc or is that there when you join ?

Left everything at default, was so many options, i left everything on what i think is easy to kick things off on case it's anyone's first time playing the game. If this event goes well, can up the difficulty in future ones.

Also, you probably might know more about the game than me, of there are any club options you think should be changed, let me know. One thing i don't want is the option to preview your putt so you can tell how to set up the shot instead. Will have another look at the options tonight.

I just joined there.

callaway92 · 20-10-2021 7:00pm

Will join tonight. Love the game.

Might be worth password protecting the Society if possible just to stop random killers coming in to snipe easy coins for a win.

Jordan 199 · 20-10-2021 7:33pm

I had an absolute stinker at Thieves. 18 over par. *Hangs head in shame*

I was gonna make it private but figured what randomer would join. I'll see if i can make it private later.

Well at least we have a score to beat now, nice one man. Is the course fun at least?

Yeah it's a nice course bro. I rushed my game so maybe if I was a little bit more patient, I would have did better. I'm happy I tried it though.

duploelabs · 20-10-2021 10:46pm

Just shot a 15 under

Dr Turk Turkelton · 20-10-2021 11:22pm

Got this at the weekend as well and just joined there now.

Thanks for setting it up @Zero-Cool .

Dr Turk Turkelton · 20-10-2021 11:24pm

"Just shot a 15 under"

Definitely gone!

piplip87 · 20-10-2021 11:40pm

I'll give it a bash tomorrow. If anyone wanders into this fourm, if you have a Gmail account go to Stadia.google.com and sign up for the free Pro trail and the game is free for the month. Can play it on any laptop, phone or chromecast.

Zero-Cool · 20-10-2021 11:42pm

Just logged on, i can see 6 members but only 3 scores so far. Buzzin (Jordan) at +2 and unevenian and muchtoold3. Anyone here are those users? Just me the society private so i guess i have to approve new members.

Also who's ozymandiaz and xzaviermcd. Might make some admins to help out with it.

Damien360 · 20-10-2021 11:44pm

Just shot a 9 under. Some very tough greens. 13th and 18th are very sloped on all sides. Nice course.

Jordan 199 · 20-10-2021 11:52pm

Some seriously good players amongst us. Time for me to practice practice practice.

Zero-Cool · 21-10-2021 12:18am

Well that was a lot of fun and relaxing too can blitz through a round which is good. Lovely course all together but yeah, that dip behind the green on 18 is a fecker. I finished on +8, so many razor thin misses but some bad shots as well, looking forward to improving my game.

Thanks for jumping on and giving it a go lads

Zero-Cool · 21-10-2021 12:29am

Sorry lads, getting my footing with this society thing. I tried creating a new event but i can't create one in the same schedule as the previous so b have to wait until the 27th for the next one which is a bit of a balls. Anyone know a way around this? Suggestions welcome!

The good news is it will be played at Craggy Island (i hope whoever made it is good at creating courses :D ) and putt preview is disabled. I thought it already was so turns out it can be used in the first event, live and learn.

Macker1 · 21-10-2021 1:35am

I joined earlier after picking up the game last week on PS Plus.

The game is quite good and will pass a few hours no doubt.

This game is so relaxing to play. Played another three games last night, improving with each game I played.

Accepted there but i think you have to accept again as it says you're still pending.

duploelabs · 21-10-2021 2:17pm

Trying out craggy Ireland without putt preview on my lunch, it'll make for interesting numbers

Dr Turk Turkelton · 21-10-2021 8:15pm

Finally finished a 6 hour round! Started earlier and had workmen call to do a job outside and then my parents called over. Kids were roared at to leave my game alone as well.

Haven't played a golf game in years until the weekend but I had been doing ok since then at it. The course was nice but damn those greens scared the sh1t out of me.

Luckily I didn't leave to many approach shots far away as I was terrified from anything over 8 feet and managed a bogey free round of 9 under.

Fair play to you @duploelabs , you must be the Tiger Woods of this game to shoot your score, well played.

Jordan 199 · 22-10-2021 7:25pm

Taking part in the FedEx Championship at the moment. Of the seven tournaments I entered, I won three of them including back-to-back victories.

A long long way to go, but if I'm playing the way I am at the moment, I am bound to be champion.

Thanks, been a bit reliant on the putt preview but turned it off today and scored a 8 under, very tricky greens
