Re: Golfer Attributes - What do they do?

Accuracy and putting make the variance envelope smaller. So precise shots will be more likely to go exactly where they would go as predicted by your aim cursor or shot preview, and mi****s will travel less off the intended path. I miss prior version's putting grid improvement as you put points into putting or the subcategory for green reading.

Recovery does the same for shots from poor lies. There is a theory on the EA forums that it also acts like the Good Lies pin so that rough and bunker lies are less likely to be buried, which makes sense but has not been conclusively proven. This attribute seems fuzzy even to the EA people. But it does seem like hybrids do work the best out of bad lies so the Recovery mechanic overall seems to have a real factor to it this year.

Someone answered me quite definitely that Spin does make your natural shot spin more like a pro's, not just ball-in-flight added spin.
