    Had it down to CHAIR and FLAIR after two guesses. Picked the word with more flair.

        LEAST
        FLAIL
        FLAIR

        Happy about the bird, but this could have been an eagle. I need to train my mind to take a step back and think before going with a word having 2 same letters. I might have come up with FLAIR with some time.

Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

          77 holes, mate. You're averaging an eagle every 4.2 1.4 rounds. Keep your chin up. Birdie for me:

          SCANT
          PEARL
          FLAIR

          EDIT: Bo corrected my bad maths.

              That actually works out to be an eagle every 1.4 rounds.

                You are correct! An eagle every third 9? That's PGA-level stuff!

                  That was a lucky guess. I think he might be cheating.

                      If you're not playing hard mode, you might be cheating. Each subsequent stroke can't be contrary to previous feedback.

                        Just lucky, although I’ve used FLAIR as a starter word before. How many eagles have you had?

                          There's different modes? I guess hard mode doesn't tell you what letters aren't in the solution? Where's the fun in that?

                            4 out of 95.

                            1 with 6 guesses. 0 losses. It will happen eventually.

                                Agreed. And you an tell if someone plays in hard mode if they post their stats. Hard mode players have an asterisk by their score.
