wii golf ranking

[jonny]

It is possible though Alanwii to get -8 on expert with a 1-1-2 so theres the extra stroke I mentioned, so if you only get a 2 on the 1st hole -7 is still possible. On the other catagories the restart button would be used after almost every failing stroke & would be very very boring.Dont know if thats made it any clearer for you.
Username I do understand what you mean but I am still enjoying wii sports & I have got my seizures down to 2 a day now & no sign of any depression.

Well done improving your score again RJ, seems like you have been a busy wiier over the last week or so. I had a go at 9 hole for half an hour & couldnt believe how bad I was, I have forgotten all my calculations.I bet you have have had many a close call at the -7 RJ, once you get to this level chances are there a plenty, I cant see you not getting it.

I had -6 with the 9th hole double eagle 3 times in one two hour session. When the -7 comes, it will be with a double eagle, I am guessing. If we could combine efforts, a -8 would happen, but that's not possible or legal by this website's rules. You seem to have found the route to more hole in ones on 7 and 8, while I know how to hit the double eagle several ways now. We should just decide on a target ranking and see who gets there first, then agree that the other one quits trying to beat it. Otherwise when will the insanity end? I will have maxed out points for -6 soon. But I know you will not be happy till the ranking is yours again. Which means I am pressing on to move mine higher...

[jonny]

Well you are right about 2 things RJ 1st this is insanity & very monotonous, & 2nd I will not settle for 2nd place. However I will be happy with equal 1st. My intention was to max out -6 & then keep on until I hit another -7 just to be sure, as you are it seems just as determined then a -7 race would be crazy. I suggest we both max out -6 & consider a draw what do you say? I have no doubt you will still chase -7 so I will forfeit chasing more -7s if you dont declare any points you recieve if you get it.As it stands at the moment there is only one double eagle between us so I foresee us both maxing out quite soon.

[rj66]

Agreed. If I reach max on -6 double eagle route, I will not seek a -7, and thus will leave you in sole possession of the -7 expert record. Don't know for sure where the level is where no more points are given for -6 double eagle, but the last four gave me 12,10,10,and 9 points respectively. Could be that I need 6-8 more of those. If I get a -7 in the meantime, I will submit it. Can't think of a more respectable foe to share the podium with than you. After all, the USA and England tied in the WC match, so why not settle for a tie and some sanity...

do you guys play real golf?

i took a "training session" a few weeks ago...
i liked it, but it was hard... :)

[jonny]

No RJ I dont suggest you stop chasing the -7 thats there to be shot at by anyone & you are more likely than anybody to get it, just dont declare any ranking points if you get it after youve maxed out -6. A -7 battle im sure would last a lifetime & I would gladly share the podium with a very worthy opponent.
Thiago yes I do play actual golf though not as often as I would like, to me it is a fantastic game & even if you are not playing your best it only takes one good shot from you to make you hungry to play again. I am envious of the guys that play in the hotter coutries as the weather spoils many days when a round of golf has been planned.Its a game that can test your temparement, patience & is a challenge every time you play.

[jonny]

Just remind me again RJ why we are doing this, its just pure madness. Trying to max out -6 is within my grasp now but I have thought this a few times before as my points decrease every time I get the double eagle only for them to go up again. Frustrating as you think you have nearly done. I guess the total must be 2828-2830. Couldnt believe I still needed a dozen or so double eagles once I had passed the 2800 mark especially as you calculated you maybe needed only 6-8 when you were way back below 2750 lol. Still I am sure once its done it will have been worth it as I think it would definatly be hard to pass. Almost had -7 so many times now without any more sucess so unless you get one then a tie will end this insanity.See you at the finish line RJ.

jonny, you win...
