Sorry about the incorrect wording on the difficulty levels. I know what they are, but I ended up transposing them in my mind (swing difficulty and game difficulty) when I was writing the piece. The text should be updated with that shortly.

As for the caddie, what I said is actually right. The caddie is a completely optional "option" that is available on all modes, and it is not deactivated on tournament difficulty. The "automatic" caddie, which some may be thinking of, is still even available on that setting, with a reduced multiplier bonus (2.40x versus 2.45x on manual caddie and 2.90x if it's off completely). The game doesn't call it a "custom" setting or anything if you switch to that, so it's not locked on or off to difficulty.

Frankly, the manual caddie just gives you an idea of where to shoot anyway, and you'd still have to tinker and line up that shot. Everything else on tournament difficulty would be deactivated, making the shot still quite challenging.
