I am the WORST player in it (no joke, I won ONE head to head game in about 4 seasons last year). The guys I play with are VERY good at the game...so we end up playing on Heisman difficulty (otherwise these guys would dominate the CPU like no tomorrow) and I have a pretty rough time with it. But I stick to it and while I will never be a GREAT player, playing on higher difficulty makes me a BETTER player...

here's my prob with putt preview... it doesnt really work for me, because i hit the putts harder than i intend... so i actually have to account for my overswing and "fast" speed in my AIM, so the preview doesnt show me where my "hard" putt will end up...

does that make sense? eh, it does to me....

Back from a casino (losing my *** off) weekend. Looking forward to playing some TW again How much did we jump up in the ranking this weekend??

Sooooo. Issues. Need to vent.

First off, can't stay connected to EA's servers all of a sudden, had issues last night. XBOX Live stayed up though. Weird.

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. :-)

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.

You have another controller sitting around? Might be time to replace...sticks get worn out w/time and use.

I just shot -9 at Kiawah last night. My best in daily tournaments so far. But those greens are pretty easy and the wind was down. I would hold off on ramping up the difficulty yet. I shot a +20 overall in my offline career for two rounds at Augusta.

My biggest issue currently is trying to get eagles. I can get on the green in 2 on par 5's, but then I choke...I kid you not, I missed a 5 foot (not YARD...FOOT) eagle putt last night even though putt preview showed it lined up perfectly...I HATE putting on the side of a slope, even short ones...

Dominick, I think you should have to play drunk every other night to give some of us a chance at finishing first in a tournament! :P (just kidding of course...I like being in online leagues with guys who are REALLY good...only way to judge how good I really am...if I can EVER beat you in a tournament, it will be something to be proud of!).

So as far as attributes go. As I said before, I played last years TW on PS3, so couldn't import XP. But right now, my CAG has his power in the 70's, putting in the 60's and accuracy in the 50's. How is everyone else doing in that department? Curious what everyone elses CAG attributes are at.
