I figured we could just start a new thread to talk about our country club. The tournaments going on, schedule online matches, etc.

I have created a weekly tournament to start tomorrow at 11am that will feature the settings that we will have in our league this year. It'll be good practice to get you used to the settings. It'll be played at Pebble Beach.

I'll also keep setting up daily tournaments too. Those will sometimes range from amateur settings to trying the tournament difficulty here an there.

Hope you're having fun with the game so far!

How does one join such an esteemed club and is this 360 or PS3?

Been too busy playing the game and have not even looked at this feature.

With the weekly tournament that ends today, is it set to league settings? I've only played the 1st 2 rounds, and I'm
already at -18. This is with a created golfer who's stats are between 50-55.

Either or. We have 10 members currently on PS3 and 4 on 360. Signup info is now on the first post.

I don't think those were league settings. I am not 100% sure. The next weekly I have set up at Pebble Beach is on the league settings.

I see a lot of second place or worse results in my future. :blush: Your score would not have been so disheartening if you were playing with Tiger or a fully leveled up golfer. 2 rounds in and I am barely under par, also using a created player with an average near 50.

JB, what exactly is the thinking behind rain and fast conditions? That is no juicy contradiction for my putting. ;)

Well the Pebble Beach Tourney I'm going to be out of, during my round I lost connection with the PSN and even once I connected at the end it said/asked me to reconnect to EA which I tried but it just timed out and froze up my PS3. I'm not sure if I will be allowed to replay round 1 or not :fp:

CLW, BOO on matching the -14 hahaha. I missed a 4ft putt on one of the last 3 holes and said to myself then "that's going to cost me" lol.

Well that I guess explains some of your scores. I think I am low 60s right now across the board (with the exception of the draw/fade which is at the minimum right now)

However, if those are the scores you are posting IMHO we are going to need to beef up the swing difficulty. Honestly, I rarely if EVER hit a bad shot on the settings we are currently using. Its just a matter of aiming/adjusting for the wind and whether you are shooting uphill or downhill. Putting seems pretty fair with green grid on but no putt preview.

Basically..which is why I don't care for Swing meter being on..it really just messes me up more than anything. It tells you where to stop according to where your the marker is. My guy is 60's across the board except power is at 72

I haven't shanked a shot yet...in fact I played with my guy immediately after creating him the first time and had no problems with swing or accuracy other than power.

That putter and the greens were just tough enough to be slightly off. I had fun playing that round, I had a bogey on #17 par 5 that really had my motor going as I missed a 6 foot par putt after shanking one in the trap and having to really just focus on getting it out verse getting it close.

These are the kind of rounds I REALLY want to see in our league. I want to see even par to -5 rounds, but I fear as our golfers get better these numbers may turn into -9 to -12 range quickly. Luckily though I hope we can all keep an open mind and make changes we see these numbers to keep this game challenging yet fun for everyone.

OK, maybe it just showed the Top 5 then "in-game" or something to that affect. Which I guess makes sense because it shows 6 when playing your career including yourself if I'm not mistaken.

I agree with NCAA and understand Football and all but this game has lasting power that doesn't take up much time once your golfer is set up. If only to build a golfer and compete in the weekly's then your really only looking at just over and Hour and half to get your 4 rounds in. It may take 2 depending on how difficult the settings are.

Something to think about :dunno:

ryby6969
03-29-2012, 12:05 PM
Yeah, but once Football starts it is 5 days a week conditioning, and in August classes start back up on top of 40 hour work weeks and a 2 year old. Not to mention I work at between 3am and 5am every day but one. That is what happened with Tiger last year.

What are the PS3 guys shooting on the tournament at Sawgrass today?

Gschwendt shot a +24, Rustee_Irons shot a +14, that's all that has done it so far.

I just got in the clubhouse with a +4. I quadrupled a hole early, got it down to +1. Had a bogey on the back nine then on the island green, I hit the front barrier of the green with my tee shot and of course it's basically made of rock so it skyrockets over the green into the water and I had to settle with a double bogey. I got a par on 18 to finish up at +4.

I finished Even Par. At one point I was -3, then double bogied on 17. Thing is I almost rolled in for an Ace..then I missed the 4 foot putt which rolled down the slope.

I play without swing meter all the time so that wasn't a problem just had to get use to reading the greens. My approach shots were solid, all but 2-3

No swing meter didn't bother me. Just misread a few putts. And got screwed on 17 or it would've been a +2 for me.

I forgot how frustrated I get when playing Tiger Woods lol. The main thing that gets me is my approaches and my putts with all of overswinging. And not to mention fading and drawing and shanking drives cause I can't flick straight upwards.

I STRONGLY dislike not having a green grid nor a swing meter. It cost me literally a stroke on every hole at least. There simply is no way to to read the greens or judge the strength you need to hit the putter with once you decide where to "aim".

I'll mess around with it but if those are the settings for the TGT I'm probably out as I don't want to have to spend 2+ hours playing a round of video game golf.

He wanted to see how many of us were stupid enough to play that round and actually post our scores.

I actually would prefer to have both. By the 3rd hole I was fine without having the Grid on. I Overswing intentionally on putts so once I adjusted to the greens it was fine.

On another note I shot a -6 under on Celtic and accidentally discarded my round while I was changing som's diaper

I'd definitely like a Country Club of 25 people that play regularly, but we don't have that many people that play the game, but if you know of anyone that wants to join after we fill up the CC, it takes just a couple minutes to make room.

I'll hit my "peeps" up on PSN when I get home tonight.

Need to get my golfer's ratings beefed up but he's still high 60s low 70s right now. Might have to spend some of my coins on XP Boost refills.

Lol I didn't notice the xp boost pin until this weekend. :fp:

By adding one more account into the Country Club to put us at 21, it bumped Tommy and Skip into Club Pro status. We'll have to make sure to play that Club Pro Invitational this week to try to get some coins and notoriety for our Country Club. You'll be able to find it within the Tourney section of the CC, probably towards the bottom. Once we fill up the Country Club, we can compete for Club Champion status and special tourneys too.

JB, just want to confirm that this is for PS3 players?

I got booted while trying to play it last night. Was +1 through 8 though. I don't mind not having the swing meter. Not having it on putting was ok, but I to constantly short my shots to avoid overhitting. I should be able to take a longer swing at a nice gradual pace.

The one I found the most difficult was no green grid. It's pretty hard to read the slope of a green off of a TV screen.

Yeah not having the putting meter and Green Grid makes it really hard to put. I 6 putted twice this morning and ended up with a +4 (I think). Missed a birdie put to tie Rusty on 18. :smh:

You're in the Club Champion tournament this week, along with Rustee. I tried to make a late push, but still only made it to Club Pro, so I'll be playing in that tournament.

As for last week, I don't think Tommy played in it. I thought I had until after midnight Sunday (early Monday) to play my rounds.....NOPE, the fucker ends late Saturday/early Sunday, so I didn't get my final round in and was a DQ. After 3 rounds I sitting at around 30th place.

I'm going to try to knock out two rounds of the Club Pro tournament tonight, and two rounds on Saturday afternoon when I get back in town.

Good luck to you and Rustee in the Club Champion Tournament. I'll be keeping tabs.

Odd I thought Rustee was the Club Champ and I was the Club Pro (or whatever). How are these "ratings" determined each week?

That's possible. Last week right before the cutoff Sunday night (early Monday) it said G, me, and Skip were Club Pros, but come the next day, Skip was bumped down one and only G & I were Club Pros. When I logged off last night it showed both of you as Club Champion. But maybe like Highlander, when it comes to Club Champion, there can only be one.

Spin for me is hit or miss since I never use it. Nice on the drives but I find myself spinning too much on the approach and put myself in a worse position.

Yeah it was a little nuts. I think I was putting for eagle on pretty much every hole except for the one par 5, a long par 4 and the par 3s.

Eventually one of those holes you'll get the wind at your back. You'll also want to use overswing... though I drove it 445 so it may not be necessary.

I have the Sony PS3 bluetooth headset and it works just fine. I also have the Sony PS3 bluetooth stereo headphones and they are AWESOME! I love them.

Note though that any bluetooth headset can be used with the PS3. So if you have one for a cell phone, it can be paired to your PS3.
