There are three versions of Devils Island that I know of (1) Devils Island (2) Devils Island LS and (3) Devils Island 2006. Which version will we use in the upcoming event Travis?

Devils Island LS is the version we will be playing. I havent had the chance to download the 06 version yet.

OMG .. Devils Island. Normally I refuse to play these type of fantasy courses ... especially in a handicap event as it plays havoc with your handicap .. however as this is a new tour I will participate .. drunken

Oh Al, I know what you mean. I am beginning to hate this course! Now I know why I never played it! Oh well, my handicap will be back to 0 after this one! I can't wait to see some scores!

I think that every once in awhile you need a course to set you back to basics and the art of course managment. This is the perfect course for that. I really personally hate this course but at the same time I want to play it just to see if I can shoot better than 5 under par with a light breeze.

5 under par with a light breeze?!?!?!? I was 7 over after 4 holes on a practice round with a light breeze! I better get back to practice or you guys are gonna drill me!

Hey Al, I am gonna have to deal with rd 1 & 4. Rd1 is F/F and breezy, Rd 4 Windy. I hate both of those conditions. I will be +20 after those 2 rds. The others may not be too bad.

At least it isn't costing me anything to get frustrated! lol!

Oh shit ... we or I have a problem. My round 1 file was windy and round 2 was breezy. Not gonna go round that course 2 more times so will redownload the lts files and check them out then alter the name of my files to suit. Lucky I have not posted them in yet.

So Its safe to say that we cannot put this course back into the lineup ever again,....At least that's the kind of hint i'm getting here. But each season we will have to have at least one course that makes a few more hairs gray and the rest fall out right? To be safe I might just have to put it all to a vote. lol lol . To be honest if I break par I will be shocked. But fear not, this course will not murder your handicap. This course actually allows your handicap to help you.

I haven't played Devils Island for years, but I remember hitting into the high weeds and not being able to get out,lol. I think I'll play a couple of practice rounds. Ray.

After playing round one (1) all I can say is someone (and you know who you are) is a sadistic Evil or Very Mad

you know what.

I don't know if I'll make all four (4) rounds before I cut my wrist, but I'll give it a try...

lol!

guys...

Hey Jim, the Fast Firm greens are murder. I can't wait till I get the windy round and can't keep it in the fairway!!

Hey Travis, I don't care if we play it or not. I am only having fun with it. It will make you want to cut your wrist, neck, etc. Guess this is how the Majors are suposed to be, right?
