Wow...incredible...I think you won't post all your techniques until you get an 18....

But I understand...that's seriously amazing. My best is a 22 still.

OK moonpie, this is my best ever.



I could use some help on hole #15. I can never get that hole consistently. I think I got a hole in one only once on that hole.

Nice work! 15 is a hard one that I don't have a solid strategy for yet

OK, but what's your best guess strategy on hole #15?? I see that you have gotten a hole in one on that hole.

Wow, Mark, that's some awesome putting!

I'm only able to get into the upper 20's, but I obviously don't have the dedication and commitment you have made to this game!

One thing...the one hole you mentioned, 15, is one of the easiest for me. I just aim for the angled thing in the bottom left corner and hit it medium hard and it drops right in the hole.

As for #8...how on earth can you get a hole in one on that one!? I can't even get close on that one...

#10 is an easy one, too...IMO. I aim for the thing that sticks out on the right, but the one on the top, bounce it off that and it puts it right in the upper left quadrant. Try that, I consistently sink it in one on that one.

And the last hole couldn't be any more maddening!! ARGH! I can get it in two, but I don't see how to get it in one...

This is a fun/addictive game...thanks for the link, Tom!

Hey Greg,

So, for hole 15, the key is the speed of the putt. I'll try your suggestion.

For a way to do hole #8, look at one of moonpie's screenshots above.

Here's how you do the last hole:



You should probably aim a little higer (almost into the top rail). Give it a few tries and you'll know what I mean.

Well moonpie,

I have finally reached your status. If we combined our scores, we would've gotten a hole in one on each hole. I still can't get #15.
