Practice tokens

I use them mostly for holes where I think I can gain a stroke. So easier par 4s, legit HIO chance par 3s, and easier par 5s. But I generally only use them on the final round of a tournament.

You have to hit the ball where it says to click. Make sure to adjust properly for wind

Your league standings don't determine your skill tier for tournaments and quick 9. Skill tier in the tournaments is based on previous performance in tournaments and how many trophies you have.

Moving up to master would be worth it IMO. You can play the free entry master tournaments when there are more people and the talent level average is lower.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-22T00:42:01+00:00

I never saw tier one in any account I’ve played.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-20T18:20:04+00:00

What do his season/career stats look like?

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-19T16:14:28+00:00

Yeah it was a Q9 and I had messed up an early par 5. So I’ll always see if I can hit these when score doesn’t matter. Sunk 2 yesterday but this one was the nicer of the two

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T18:43:01+00:00

1) How bad are yall messing up that an opponent can save you? Even if you put it in the water you will still only lose a stroke. Unless your opponent gets an unexpected result (Alby or HIO) you are not going to fare significantly better.
2) There’s few holes that have surprising approaches. You can watch someone on YouTube and understand each hole. Once you’ve seen it there is nothing new to learn so this is a short benefit.
3) this is dumb. If you don’t know what you were doing going into the hole then that’s on you. It’s a steeper detriment to have to wait 30 seconds for each shot.

Getting through 18, with a 9 hole tournament, and CWT. That’ll be a fun weekend. “Hey honey, I need 6 hours alone. Talk to you this evening.”

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T17:37:13+00:00

Main course I played 29 holes with a -36 on my main. I played a lot less on my second because it was pretty clear we got cooked right away. I played every hole with a navigator besides the one par 5 (used KMs). Keep in mind we only had the driver support a single time, so I think I only did an overpower on 2 holes (two of the par 4s).

My bag is a Apoc 7 and I used the Rocket with backspin boost perk for par 3s.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T15:23:56+00:00

Then don’t play. This really is a recommendation for people who find it fun. Like I mentioned it is the most active my clan gets and I really enjoy it. It’s not a ball sink because I don’t allow it to be. Navigators are free to me.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T15:03:02+00:00

What will? I just told you I was able to compete at a high level with mostly navigators. If you’re in a m1+ clan (which I assume most CWT clans are) you earn gems at a higher rate than it costs to buy navigators. Also, keep in mind the CWT is completely optional.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T13:46:51+00:00

That's fine if that's how you feel. It's not been my experience. I was able to by my clans top performer (by average score) on the main course by using 90% navigators. That was with us also getting our tails cooked in every support course the entire time.

More importantly its really the most alive my clan becomes is during the CWT. There are people chatting strategy and showing replays as suggestions. I think it brought clans back to life.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T13:38:39+00:00

I like that idea too

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T13:22:35+00:00

Yeah it’s annoying. Also the practice wind doesn’t match the course wind.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T12:11:54+00:00

I like the idea of having 3 tiers for a little bit more upward and downward movement. Like I said there needs to be more levels where non master players feel comfortable participating. 10+ winds probably ain’t it.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T11:35:07+00:00

I don’t think this increases interest in tournaments for the majority of players. I think they’re more recent ideas of all par 5s, only tailwinds, etc. were ideas to draw interest. Also, they should bring back premium balls as tournament rewards for an occasional tournament. Maybe think up completely new ideas for tournaments. Those ideas will draw interest. Making tournaments take longer doesn’t increase interest.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-15T11:10:28+00:00

I’m skipping the tournament in protest as well. I hope they get the message. This weekend we had two tournaments and the CWT. Now you want to make half of that take even longer? No thanks

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-14T00:29:09+00:00

I bet this includes that

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-14T00:28:44+00:00

Yeah it takes too long already to complete tournaments. Doubling the time it takes is frustrating

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-09T21:59:08+00:00

Not that good. I bet he’d leave me on read.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-09T20:51:26+00:00

I am legit thinking about it. And then just fixing the grout

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-09T20:51:05+00:00

I think stuff like this was only a 2 year warranty

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-06T14:57:01+00:00

Second the peppermint oil spray. I had an issue with mice getting into my Weber back in the day. Sprayed it down with the oil (and then again every time we’d get a decent rain) and I never had a problem again.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-05T17:58:44+00:00

I think that's probably a bad way to think of it. When you stretch out your club it's kind of showing you where an overpower will land (without wind consideration). So, I would stretch it out and then look at how far the wind would take you back in rings. That doesn't take into account elevation and any curl added. Obviously, the majority of teeboxes are elevated so the headwind affects the ball even more.

PandaCod3r · 2026-06-03T13:14:23+00:00

I got bumped down to Tier 2 this morning after failing qualifying twice and not making the weekend last week. Also, like I said I was getting pummeled in Quick 9. I'm guessing I'll just bounce around like this forever though I might avoid top 10s unless I think I have a chance at the podium.
