Wordle Discussion Daily Spoilers

So I don't really know what to expect, but our Wordle Golf group probably doesn't like my -9 over the last 18. A woman did that a few weeks ago and I thought it was impossible. Then I just did it. I think it's mostly luck and picking lucky start words.

So a new game begins tomorrow and we all use the same start word every day. Should be interesting.

Wow. That’s a weird move by the Wordle golf group. Trying to equalize the handicaps?

I don't know your exact rules (I do recall par is group average), but I recalled I had a hot streak last month. So I went back and looked it up. Between 12/5 and 12/22, if par was 4 every hole, I would've been 14 under.

I want in your league ;)

Par is often 3 and rarely 5 in our group. So the 10 under is pretty amazing. I actually assumed the woman who did it before had to be cheating, then I did it. My varied start words can be critical and I think I just had a good streak.

I think so. Trying to see how we play when someone else drives the ball perhaps? Because of my varied start words changing daily, if I get a string of words with few double letters or obscure letters, I'll score well. So of course today we have a double letter and an obscure letter.

Par must be on the rise in this group?

Way up. I think it was 5 yesterday. Both words were difficult, but also poorly matched to the start word.

I would never use a start word with a V or one with only one vowel. My approach is about clearing vowels and compound consonant letters (S, H, L, T, N, M, C). I don't know if the math supports it, but if T is clear, then ST, TH, LT, CT are gone. So I usually include a couple of those letters plus two vowels.

Your way is much better than whatever your group is doing. Any idea how the starter word for your group is chosen?

A guy named Tony is picking it. He texts all of us the night before.

Hopefully Tony’s starter word tomorrow is an improvement over the first two.
