Ok, so still no birdies. I'm starting to think I should've stipulated net birdies, with my handicap I think I would've been pretty good with birdies in my last round. Another course I've never played. It was a nice walk, very peaceful. My only real complaint is that I found it a bit open. It...

Today's course was one that I've never played before. It was a very nice course to walk around, and probably the most "golf clubby" type course I've played so far. Rolling fairways with a light rough cut fringe, and big greens. Here's the score card Overall I was happy with how I played this...

Well, the great birdie hunt continues. I did come close today though. My overall score was terrible, as you can see from the scorecard I played with my colleagues from work, we all play off a very similar handicap, they played quite a bit better than I did! The 15thbwas a good hope for all...

Well. That isn't the scorecard I thought I'd be reporting after the first few holes. I'm not here to make any excuses, but it was very windy today. It's not an excuse, but just an observation. Really swirly wind as well, impossible to read for most people. I decided I would give Big Willy...

It's my birthday tomorrow, and I have a week off to play lots of golf. I've booked a round at a different course every day, 3 of which I've never played before (we are blessed with perhaps 20 really good courses within 30 miles of us). I've only ever shot one birdie in the 12 months I've been...

It's my birthday this weekend and I've been on a bit of a splurge. New Arccos sensors. I tried the ct10s but out of the full set, 3 failed to work from the start, and 2 other kept disconnecting from my watch and failed to track shots. Bagboy Nitro golf cart. I can't have it until my birthday...

It was bad. 50-53 for a total 103. This is following a run of 8 consecutive sub 100 rounds. Only 1 hole where I managed par, and shot two 9s in a single round for the first time in forever. It was very windy though, with 15+ mph winds. I'm not used to dealing with that, so there's my excuse.

One worse than yesterday, with a 95 Was actually 1 better up until the 15th and had a blowout which spoiled my card. Still really poor connection with my irons.

Bit of a weird one today. I played awful, with my losing 3 balls on the very first tee. They were breakfast shots though obviously so didn't count. I managed to run home with a 94 so I actually felt happy with the game despite me struggling to hit a shot where I wanted. Back again tomorrow so I...

Plus when it comes to society online games there is always the handicap mode. Which take into account how you are playing at your chosen difficulty. So if you just can't deal with Pro mode, but at Am you are shooting -10 ever round, your handicap will adjust so that when playing in a society...

I do like the level of tweaking you can do for difficulty. For example if you want to step up to pro level but feel the swing mechanics are just too much, you can turn that down but leave everything else like all the other aids at pro level. Or, which I prefer certainly for career. You can set...

There is a significant step up between Pro-Am and Pro in terms of swing mechanics. The margin for error for both swing plane and the downswing tempo is very small and very unforgiving. There are 2 more difficulty settings above Pro which I am scared to go near.

It's sad to hear about all the issues PS4 users are having right now. Think I made the correct choice opting for PS4 as I haven't had any problems and I really love the putting mechanic. I still can't figure out the downswing timing, sometimes I'm perfect, sometimes I'm slow even when I thank...

I think the handicap system helps with that. So if everybody played at say, Pro level but with handicap it should allow for a fairly balanced leaderboard, like in the real game. Depending in the group size in the future you could always have multiple contests, aimed at different difficulty...

Overall my early impressions of the game are positive. It's definitely less arcadey than any golf game I've played in the past, except for the golf club vr. The difficulty multiplier can be tweaked and chopped by turning various help tools on and off, but in terms of actual swing mechanics...

Did you ramp up the difficulty yet? I'm still struggling with the reality shock of Amateur Vs Pro settings. Dread to think what World Class and Master are like!

I've joined the group. My gamer tag is DevilsLovechild I have started the career mode all the way at the Korn Ferry final. Played my first round on default Amateur difficulty settings and shot -6. Switched it to Pro difficulty as that's what you need for most online modes, and I shot +6. Most...

That's an interesting comment, and one of the things that keeps me on the fence for the new big bertha. I am so tempted for the confidence it will give me with the driver, but I don't want to spend £500 on a driver that will be bringing me problems in 12/18 months when I develop my swing to be...

Quick play on the 9 hole course for the first time in a while. Shot a 47, which is decent for me, still shooting off 28, although my last few rounds have all been pushing my handicap index down on both Garmin and on golfshake. Garmin currently has me at 27.1, Golfshake (which uses a formula much...

I hear ya there. Plus PC ports of sports games have historically been rubbish, like FIFA. That's the reason I will probably get this on PS4. Although having it on Xbox does mean I could stream it and play it on my phone in bed all night.
