Re: POLL: What do you Listen to While Playing Links Golf?

Didn't Vote: No appropriate option presented.

Re: Links 2003 Crash During a Round

My experience over the years (playing since 2006) on 3 PC's via 7 different Windows Operating Systems, has been Links will sometimes crash (I have always used full screen mode).

Re: When is your Prime Time?

Generally when I am in the mood for virtual golf (I play many other games now); but it could be anytime. However , I must admit I probably play my best rounds about half way through my 2nd bottle of wine. I'm guessing that's when I am the most relaxed. :yes:
