Finally a video where someone actually explains and helps understand how this game works. I've been playing golf games since back on the mega drive and all the Tiger woods games, but this had me cursing and swearing because the ball just wouldn't stay on the green and you have explained all the bits to help build my character up. Thanks very much 😃👍🏻

Great content. How do you get that little marker at the top of your swing meter. Thank you

[jimgarrison]

First time I’ve seen one of your videos. I’m very impressed, I really enjoyed your presentation. I’ve subscribed and liked, please keep providing these great videos.

[Fullybakedziti]

Love all your videos dude!! So awesome getting to see you grow!

[Roundy]

This is great info! Thank you! A minor suggestion, can you add in chapters for each section you are covering?

[markaab]

If you play on the xbox X I do recommend getting a elite controller it will change your swing and with the customizations. It makes it a way better game .

How do you get that black point mark on your swing meter

[ReasonableArgumentsBeingMade]

Good advice and great explanation for the advice.

[AlecRedfield]

Thanks for this useful info. Personally, I never play against other gamers online. I always play single player modes/games.

I'll be honest man, once the video got on the golf course 80% of that went clear over my head. What exactly is a swing plane, what do you mean by "being off-line" and what does that slow/fast/under/overswing tell you? What is it that I'm doing "slow"? How are you telling this "swing plane" is right? Frankly I don't really give it that much thought. But thanks for making it. One of the few things I like about EA is they make it possible to give a good challenge to people like RedGolf, but for mere mortals like myself who just want a casual game of golf every few weeks, we can make it work for us, though I wish the difficulty settings were more fine-tuned.

thank you for the video my man cleared up a few things.

[tomservo]

I do love your videos, however please keep in mind that many of us are brand new to golf, you mentioned that in your intro. And personally I don't know what you mean by those terms above. The stuff about feet being above or below the hole, lie slope and all that just makes my head spin if I'm being honest. For the swing itself I don't give it that much thought and I usually do okay enough to finish top 25 at average difficulty levels, I've never really worried much about swing plane or any of that. That's what I like about this as opposed to 2k. 2k23 is so picky about timing, even a tenth of a second off will send the ball sideways. EA is much more reasonable so as long as the fast/slow is within 2-3% I'm perfectly fine with that.

Help an old man out. Is there am arcade setting for PGA Tour Masters?

[troyoutlet]

I never even thought about using arcade swing for the challenges, Thats a great idea. do you still get the same amount of xp ? or do you get less on arcade?

There is no option to play 1 round, 2 rounds or 3 rounds in the career mode, you have to play the full 4 rounds but they are aware of this and are hopefully going to patch this option back in. They said it was initially in the game but had to be removed at the last minute as it caused issues with commentary, challenges etc

[rickinwast]

Well done! So far putting has been rather frustrating. Breaks are at times not reliable.

[matthz]

Think it's important to good your thumb horizontally as you've shown. If the thing is diagonal there's way too many variables 👌 ⛳

[davids]

Why doesn’t my game have that tic on the swing swoosh?

[gakkieNL]

I still really struggle with telling when the ball will roll a lot or stop fairly quickly. Both on approaches and par 3s. Any tips on that?

Chapters have been added! Sorry took so long <3
