Probably not a popular request, but I would like to know what players are using tour clubs so I could gauge my progress against yours. At this point, I am not worrying too much about scores I shoot. but my progression.(which is wildly inconsistent) Currently, I am making too many double bogies to score well. Would love to hear what you are struggling with the most and what you have 'figured out'! Thanks. My main problem is not hitting the fairway off the tee. Hitting from the rough in this game is crazy. I really don't think I will be ready for the Web tour when it resumes. I haven't hit anything but Tour clubs since I opened the game. I feel pretty good with them and love the distance and ball control, but if I'm not careful (and it happens sometimes even if I'm trying to be very careful) I'll snap hook one off the tee, especially with driver. But that is much more realistic and I actually like it!

God i wish these tournaments were 4 rounds. I'd play this exclusively and say the hell with those other tours. Games to buggy anyways to be starting those TGC Tours IMO. Probably do that for majors Terry. I heard the main gig's been delayed. Peter, really? Not starting back up in the next couple weeks?

That thread just caught my eye. It's a good thing the Senior Tour is up and going very strong! Kudos again.

I've been game ready since day one. It's golf, you are never ready, if you are it's too easy

Lol peter, I've been playing real golf for nearly 40 years and video golf ever since video games were invented. Just about every game iteration that has ever existed I've had.
I think I know how to pull back a stick and push it forward straight with a smooth tempo. I know irl when I make a bad swing, whether it's in to out or out to in. Similarly with a console stick. I'm at a loss though with this total inconsistency.

Turnberry is a great rcr from the links loving yeltz. He's just ported over birkdale (half hour) from my house. Another brilliant links. Starting to get the hang of tour clubs (for now!). Managed -2 with some good scrambling and putting. The lack of water on links courses helps. Nearly aced 11. Can't belive it. Rolled beautifully down the slope short right of the hole.. thought it was going in but pulled up 4 inches short. GRR... Can't be far from me Dave,I am also 30/40 mins from southport,will be at the Open this week 👍

Hey Guys and Girls
Thanks in advance for your patience but we appear to have the "lost" scores bug in our XB1 Society. This means updating the cross-platform leaderboards after event 3 will be delayed whilst we check a few things. Thank you.
