I've mostly been playing on my AES the last few months, and now I'm getting a bit better at NTM fancied another go at the Scotland course, so got my NGCD out tonight. I played one round with no saving/cheating, and while +19 doesn't sound like a great score, this is an insanely tough course compared to the 4 standard courses, and I managed either par or birdie on 11 holes. My high score was mainly due to a few O.B.s on holes with water hazards, and some of thse holes really are like crazy golf! But I think with a bit of practice I could par this course.
@Ken7stars do you ever play the Scotland course? I would be interested to see what kind of score you could manage on it.

In my firsts matches in scotland i’ve ended at + 23 and more
Yesterday i was near to goldcard
For scotland i need always my notes beside me
There’s heavy rough before the green in almost all holes
So when the pin it’s down on the green it needs to use one club more and downspin, to evitate heavy rough
By saying hole by hole
At Hole n.1 with wind 0 the right position it’s 1 movement right from stock position
To pass between the bunkers
With wind 2 or 3 it needs intuition to evitate the bunkers
For the second shot heavy rough it’s not so close to the green
But when the pin it’s on the hill at down right (level 8 pin position) heavy rough can be a problem , so i use one club more and downspin
At hole num 2 with wind 0 or forward it’s possible to arrive in green from the tee
It needs the precise direction (white arrow position 3 left, + 3 little movements right, but not white arrow position 2)
With 4-5 bounces on the rocks green it’s possible, and then try eagle
Unfortunately, this cannot be a setup with wind 0
‘Cause the ball can bounce ok at the first rock, or can bounce bad and go in water
