Re: HB Studios Next-Gen golf game: The Golf Club

Having played Innisbrook a number times in real life I can tell you the greens are not that hard or fast. Maybe it is because of my familiarity with the course but I think that is a bad recreation in general. I think most of the fast greens in this game are too fast, hope the 2019 version tones the...

Re: HB Studios Next-Gen golf game: The Golf Club

I certainly share your frustrations with an inconsistent swing. :( A couple days ago I was in the proverbial “zone” with my swing and finished tied for 1st place in the Tendergrass Classic (Pro Amatuer +10-0 Society). The person I tied with was listed first on the leaderboard and he was playing with...

Re: OT: Prostate Cancer

I'm glad to hear you're back home Tim; a much better atmosphere in which to heal. I'm always anxious in a hospital whether I'm a patient or a visitor! I hope your nausea has subsided since you got back home... you need to keep an appetite to stay properly nourished with all the chemo in progress. G...

Re: HB Studios Next-Gen golf game: The Golf Club

Can't be sure I can find them again, so I will try. Lets start with a downhill putt of 25 feet. Your HUD indicates the cup is one foot below the ball. What you have to watch sometimes is your distance to pin indicator may say downhill one foot, but if you do not check it, it could be 7" downhill or...

Re: HB Studios Next-Gen golf game: The Golf Club

This is where the aiming marker for putting makes a HUGE difference. I refused to use it for the longest time, then I saw some posts on TGC Tours explaining how it is used properly can help modulate putting speed. Now I use it all the time and it makes a helluva difference ESPECIALLY on greens like...

They aren't like that on the real course are they? :?

Re: Player Unknown Battlegrounds

Is Fortnite remaining free? That will be a big tipping point for me. Both games seem very similar. I don’t like the ‘building’ stuff in Fortnite. Once it gets to like 15 remaining everyone just builds defenses. Not a huge fan. I couldn’t stand the “building” feature in Fortnite either and quit play...

I wanted to delve a bit further into this issue of lower scoring. I know I didn't particularly enjoy shooting -34 for 72 holes. It's too easy to hit fairways and greens with my three favorite controllers. I've got a couple of older XBox 360 controller I could use and have a hard time breaking par w...

Re: HB Studios Next-Gen golf game: The Golf Club

I wish I had the discipline to do that, but I can't help but be curious about how the others within a few strokes of me are moving. I honestly can't see why they can't simply sync the selected ghost player(s) round(s) with your round in real time. If I'm not mistaken, they did that in Tournament pl...

I am really liking the ghost scores updating hole by hole while playing a tournament with a ghost player. I try to not look at the leaderboard scores showing after each hole is finished so that I don't see my ghost player's final score or his score ahead of the hole I'm playing. The good thing is be...

Re: HB Studios Next-Gen golf game: The Golf Club

I don’t agree that a pause is needed at the top of the swing. The only Tour players I see with pauses at the top is Hideki Matsuyama and to a much lesser degree, Jim Furyk. The overwhelming majority of golfers do not pause at the top of their swing. I agree that there are a number of other features...
