Sorry to hear that Roy. Means i will have to wait 8 weeks
to beat you.(lol) But, as Jack said ammy might be a try
if you so desire. I just tried it, horrible with the mouse.
But with the f12 key not too bad. Anyway have fun on your time
off.

Long live the F12. Almost had my own Wrist Mishap a few weeks ago. Tried for an uncertain vantage point on the 1st Tee at the CP Women's Open in Ottawa - Nelly, Lexi and Minjee just teed off and I'm measuring my length - unceremoniously at that. :( Like you, mouse clicks with my Left. Forget it. That's why I write with it instead. Go figure. Heal well!

as it happens i just played my first round left handed :lol: Had a few tries at F12but as that was left handed also i was garbage. had a go at King of Swing (it has mullies) and surprised myself. Couple of luck ones went in and the need for mullies was though over hitting. Putts mostly which crazy as kept smashing putts too hard.

overall it was one of the slowest, most tiring rounds i can remember. i couldnt work out to adjust the stance! Took me 5 minutes to remember what had been automatic when playing right handed!! Also when placing the aiming pin i then moved it accidentally while trying to adjust the stance. That just kept happening. Really annoying but showed how the coordination wasnt there.

3 more rounds in 2 days wont be easy :lol: :lol:

Hmmm, maybe I have been missing something all these years. :shock: I have never adjusted my stance. I will have to investigate. Or do you mean adjust ball placement up and back?

At least you are playing, right?

Of course adjusting stance means more front foot or back foot. Couldn't mean anything else could it? what else would you call doing that?
I am sure everyone does that all the time, surely!!
