Does anyone have it on the Switch? I am thinking of buying this game. I was gonna go PC, but I haven't bought a Switch game in a while so think this could be a long-term switch game for me if I get it...

The more you do it, the better you get at it. I was always a putt preview user and then when playing with friends we turn putt preview off and I've gotten much better over time.

My approach typically is to not change much of the power unless you see an obvious reason to when reading the down/up hill change. The biggest factor for me is the left and right adjustments.

I haven't had those issues, but i'm playing on PC. Not sure if that would change anything or not.

Yes, very slow on Xbox One.

I’ve played career on easy to get the feel and to start off. It’s certainly way easy and I plan to up the difficulty. What I have noticed about winning equipment or clothing from a contract is that it doesn’t really seem to be any better than what you start with. Is there a way to build up your attributes at all over time?

I like it. Could definitely use a lot more polish, but the core is really good. Golf mechanics are very solid.

the putting definitely takes time to get used to. i even find myself getting F'd over with too fast or too slow swings when I SWEAR my tempo never changes.

i also cannot figure out a way, or if its even possible, that the tournaments time limit can be adjusted. realized yesterday that the tournament was set to expire at 6:30 pm.

if anyone knows how to adjust it where the tournament is open from 12:00 am to 11:59 pm, let me know.

also...would love to make the society much more involved. if we could get a huge group i can make the tournaments have higher buy ins and winnings. can set up qualifiers for bigger tournaments/majors. it'll take time but willing to do it since its something new for the game and it make it worth the price of purchase.

This happened to me more in that round than it's ever happened. I went and calibrated my swing again then played that course again. Shot +2 instead of +13. Same conditions. I wonder if that mechanic will get fixed or not because it sure seems like everyone struggles with that.

That's my biggest issue still. I calibrated my swing, but too often my swings are slow. My guy is left handed, so my slow swing slices left. It's not always slow to the point of slicing it out of play, but it tends to happen once or twice a game. I line my shots up on the right side of the fairway, when wind allows, so that the slight slice left will leave me in the fairway. So I'm working around it, just wish I could figure out how to be more consistent.

I've upped my difficulty to the middle one (pro am maybe??). And computer players are on hard. It makes for some great rounds. Every single shot is big if I want to win.
