does that make sense? eh, it does to me....
Same here. I strike a little harder than the preview's 'ideal' line, so I adjust accordingly. Same thing when using caddy recommendations for putting; you have to adjust to how you putt/strike the ball. I like that aspect.

Second, played our daily at Kiawah. Shot a remarkably bad +16, including a +8 on the first three holes. And then couldn't even get credit for my horrid play because I had dropped the EA connection during the round and it exceeded its retry limit when I was complete. My problems were not limited to but mainly due to pushing everything right.

In a rage, I played 9 holes of TW11 on my PS3, which I play on TourPro difficulty (the highest that year, but I don't use true aim). Shot -4. Ok, so I'm not drunk or anything...Remembering that I had the demo for 13 on the PS3, I fired it up and shot -2 on the first three holes of Kiawah using our settings. I only had one shot and 2 putts where I was even a bit off the center line both backswing and followthrough

Came back to XBOX, switched back to left stick, and shot +1 for the same 3 holes. For some reason, I am not getting along with my xbox controller, and my swings are ALL over the place.

Oh well, once I get home from work tonight I am going to hit the practice facility and see if I can work things out.

Thank you for listening. :-)
You have another controller sitting around? Might be time to replace...sticks get worn out w/time and use.
