"Just One More Thing" (Columbo :wink: ), I'm curious as to what controllers you guys are using? The sticks in this year's version of the game are very sensitive in the swing and I'm wondering if I'm experiencing "drifting" with my Elite 2 controller (https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/lawsuit...

After finishing my rounds at our society tournament this weekend 24 strokes behind the leader, I’m asking for some tips from those players routinely finishing at the top of our society leaderboards. :oops: I played the heck out of the game the first couple of weeks after release, focusing on being ...

Thanks Lead. Looks like you lit it up for low round again though.

Too little too late.

Joz, great scoring for this weekends tournament. I finished strong again, but the one bad round did me in.

I'm curious, have any of you who are playing this game on the XBox One, or X been able to try it out on a PC that can sustain 50 FPS, or more?

Nope, have not. Not planning on getting the new XBOX until next year either....

Joz, way to dominate this weekend. I posted a 61 for my final round, but still finished 7 strokes behind you.

Just shot a +6 in the first round. :evil: My chips kept missing the flag by inches and then sailing by a long bunch. Just struggling lately everywhere... That was not a fun round. Sloggy, sloppy, wet, mess.... had a couple lucky putts, or I coulda been at +6 as well, but finished +2. Greens are ver...

Is anyone thinking of starting up a cross-platform DSP On-Line League? I've been experimenting with a small league that is made up of my sports board gaming friends and the functionality works great!! We all range in EGO from 45 down to 25, but each game feels on equal footing with the auto-ego adju...

No doubt! I doubled the first par 5 because my approach was a little long and rolled off the back side of the green. Then my 4th shot chip rolled on past the cup and off the front side of the green. Next chip came up short of the cup and rolled back to me. Ugh! +5 on the front, -2 on the back Great...

Current tournament course is the devil.

I really enjoyed Rozzer Ranch. Beautiful course. #4 ate me up for a quad bogey. Tried to go with a driver and pulled it out of bounds. That was the start of a bad hole. Ended up getting within a shot of Leadfoot at the end. Almost had a mini Leadfoot moment from this weekend. Went from thinking I b...

I thought I was sitting decent with a -25. I saw your -26 and thought "Man, he got me!". Then I saw that 74 followed by that 58 and thought "Sh&#t, I bet he was pumped!" :D It's fun when you are in the mix going into the last few holes, even better when you didn't think you had a chance and shoot a...

Damn Lead, a 58! You dog :D Unbelievable!? And on those goat paths they call fairways 8O I shot a 67 and was proud :wink: I dunno, I've played a TON of this game since release, mostly on Pro settings - I think I'm over level 80 now? Anyway, with all the practice on Pro, hitting fairways on semi-pro...

Damn Lead, a 58! You dog :D Dude... I totally thought I horked my chances with my terrible 3rd round. So truly, I set about just to get my 4th round over with. But then the birdies started falling, one after another. And somehow I ended up tied with you heading to the final hole. When I dropped tha...

We have a hotly contested tournament going on right now at Salt Creek Golf Club (beautiful course by Matt Rose, BTW). Leadfoot, Joz (Major Bubs), and myself are all tied for the lead as I left, but ddtrane was on the course behind us and hot on our trail. Don't miss this course; Matt Rose is a mast...

For folks having problems with putting and no meters, here is what I do that seems to work well. 1. Don't change the default distance that the system dials in for you, only adjust your aim left and right as needed. 2. When ready to putt, pull the stick back with as much finesse as possible, as slowl...

The patch finally dropped for the XB1 today. I just played my first career tournament post-patch and while the patch notes didn't say anything specific about swing timing, my swing on PRO difficulty was way more consistent with none of the WTH?! moments like I was having before. Made 65% FIR, where ...

What are people's thoughts on the swing meters? Should they be locked to OFF, locked to ON, or open to whatever the user wants? I know that theoretically they are considered an aid, but I find them to be a hindrance. I wouldn't have a problem with this swing meter setting being Open, as it's a choi...

I'm perfectly happy w/ the level of the 4 rounder. Yes, it's difficult, but it's a proper challenge. Shooting even par should be a challenge. I would much rather see +20 at the end of four rounds than a -20. It just means we have to practice and get better. I kind of like the power meter, whereas n...

But Eastland is tough, especially if you miss the fairways.

Yup. As someone who has been doing "ok" on Pro, I can attest to this. Absolutely brutal if you don't hit the fairways.

Good shooting Leadfoot.

Thanks! I've been playing the game nonstop since release on the Pro setting, so dropping back down to Semi-Pro is making it super easy to find the fairways and dial in the approach shots.

I've been doing all my Career Rounds on Pro Difficulty, which is really helping with our test rounds. Having the meters in addition to the Pro-Am swing difficulty almost feels like a cheat.

To me Pro-Am is the equal of Pro for 2019 and the current Pro level is what the old game was for Masters and a bit more unpredictability no matter how many times you calibrate the controller. Before the game was launched, by watching my favorite you-tubers I could tell that our level would be more ...

Yeah go ahead and schedule some dailies. I approved trane, everyone is approved who requested so far. A Alright, i am in. Thank you and dont let that plus 32 i posted this morning after round 1 scare you. After watching the people on Twitch play, I thought i should be able to stay around even for t...

In the society what is the difficulty set at? Can we play at whatever difficulty we want? I have it set for pro, we'll see how it goes after a couple of tournaments. I'm getting quite frustrated myself with the swing tempo with just about every drive off the tee going extremely left or right and no...
