I managed to get a hole-in-one today, my first ever!

Very nice! My wife owns the only hole in one in our house.

Bunker can range from about the same as impact as rough, to needing over three times the power, depending on ball depth.
Sand Traps are more complicated, because of additional increments of the ball's delve into the sand. IIRC these are:
The Submarine Level -- Your ball is under the sand level.
The Periscope Level -- The peak of your ball sticks above the sand level.
The Emergence Level -- Approximately half of your ball is above the sand level.
The Surface Level -- The lower tip of your ball is still under the sand level.
The Yellow Submarine -- Your ball's gently lying on the sand, barely touching it.
Now, the Periscope and Emergence levels equal Heavy Rough and Rough scenarios respectively. Submarine is way above Heavy Rough and Yellow Submarine is a bit below Fairway situations, both happen rarely, though. Yet, these calculations are still under development, since I rarely get trapped in a Bunker. (Yeah, I'm so full of pep. Must have had my grande latte enema this morning .
Anyone have good formulas for bunkers? I still tend to screw those shots up, although I am pretty decent at avoiding them. From Vectorman0's guide:
Would love to know what % everyone uses for each bunker graphic assuming the German golfer.
...My wife...only hole in one in...
Lowered my Japan PB by 1:

That would be great! Unfortunately the topic creator left the Forum and that's why there hasn't been updates.I might join you since I joined the discord community that organize tournaments on fightcade and am practicing a lot.
I can't find the updated records table in the last pages, would someone be kind enough to repost/update them?
Edit : Nevermind I found the last score board posted in page 20. I guess i'l update it myself when I submit a score unless someone else does it before.
I do this a lot, it is useful but can be annoying to spectators.Here's an interesting Landolt game through the Fujiyama Oriental Club Course, played by an Italian player. What deserves attention is, how this player uses the stance direction arrow, the one pointing straight to be exact, in order to gain perfect aiming towards the flagpole. Up till now, I used the putting figure for more exact aiming, yet, this was unavailable on Par 3 holes and Heavy Rough ball positions. The direction arrow is always available, hence it's the better choice.
Note: Because of possible shifting, you'll have to figure out, if this arrow points exactly towards the flagpole with its head on your monitor. It might be slightly off-center.
This player also doesn't use the hook/slice stance to cancel out crosswind impact. He does this solely through careful opposite direction. A nice alternative method, which could even be the more reliable one.
Nice scores! I definitely think you can still improve your Australia score, if not all of them. Australia is the easiest course for me using Landolt. It seems like the wind is gentler on average, and the lack of elevation changes makes it so I usually score a stroke or two better than the other courses.lol, Japan improved by another 2 for a -17.

I'm terrible and can't get the crazy eagles that some of you pros are getting.

At this point, I don't think I can really improve any of these except maybe Australia...? It always feels like an easy course going in, but with the wrong wind on the wrong hole, your ball just loves to fly OB.
EDIT - Double lol, got the -16 on Australia.
Spoiler:
As a bonus, my PBs on each course are all 1CCs now.
Very good score!lol, Japan improved by another 2 for a -17.

That's just a link to results from a search engine. Do you have a link to the actual video?
