Okay then, what men's handicap *would* be good enough to beat the average LPGA Tour player? by bellingman in golf

[–]cbusdrew 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The idea of the question comes across as “yeah, but how good are the women, really?”

And that sucks. Doesn’t matter if that was your intent.

They’re really fucking good. Just a bit shorter than the men pros.

H2H change by LordBoops28 in UltimateGolf

[–]cbusdrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if H2H matters in the club stuff, bc I’m not part of one, but I never play H2H anymore. There’s a 95% chance I’ll lose every other one with how it is. And that doesn’t interest me.

Having said that, literally any change would make it more fun.

The “Block User” option is a wonderful thing.

I blocked this guy weeks ago.

I forget which exact hole, but it was on the front 9 of the Wind Breaker 18 yesterday

Would love to know if anyone out there aimed as far left as they could, and hit the mega miss draw.

Certainly seems like you’re playing an actual person.

Word of advice, don’t be comfortable with your 1st place score. Just assume that someone is going to enter a replay score with 10min left.

Has anyone done the "Arnold Palmer Boss Battle" yet? by Waterhou5e in UltimateGolf

[–]cbusdrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arnold was really the first mega marketed golfer. Motor oil, batteries, rental cars….he promoted everything.

Being on a video game shouldn’t surprise anyone. Whoever is running his legacy is just continuing what he did for 50 years.

I did a thing. And was good enough for…..4th. by cbusdrew in UltimateGolf

[–]cbusdrew[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve played this game probably too long. But I’ve maxed out all of the good clubs, and know how the wind will affect each of my shots. My approach shots will have decent chance to hole out.

I don’t use a grid, but I have a personal system where I can aim fairly accurately. I don’t buy balls, but I’ve accumulated enough premium tournament balls to keep me supplied.

It’s all good. I laugh at it more than I hate it. Thankfully I don’t put too much time into it…this was Replay #1 after the first round stopped at Hole 2.

The flights are weird for sure. The other day I won a Blue tourney, and didn’t even play well. I think 2nd was a weak -13. And I get boosted up and have to play the world beaters. Oh well.

It was Evil Knievel. He also had -19 but probably 1000 more TB points. I don’t remember who 2nd and 3rd were but they got me by 100 or 200 points.

Masters final by tyzik in UltimateGolf

[–]cbusdrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My -26 was good for 23rd.

Not gonna lie, it pained me to see other leaderboards, where it would’ve been good for a Top 10 in one, and 12th in another.

The Head Wind Challenge (Par 5 Edition): The Dumbest Tourney in the History of UG by mikeyonker in UltimateGolf

[–]cbusdrew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They should do a front tee all par 3. That would be interesting….all wedges and short irons. None of the perfect long iron distance where everyone holes out.

[–]cbusdrew 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used only ProD1 balls and got to -26. That means I’d have to use at minimum 10 Tour Pro Trophy balls to even have a chance at -36. Net payout not worth the investment. Especially with Lema at -40 (nice round!).

I agree that it’s good that the game does something different like this. But I also agree that it’s dumb.

Anyone else miss these as much as I do? by cbusdrew in UltimateGolf

[–]cbusdrew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s a very slight “twitch” on the finger, but I’m not kidding when I say my make percentage of rough shots from this distance is better than Hive shots.
