If the 100% power was meant to be a sure thing 100% of the time, wouldn't there just be a button to push once for swing with nothing else required? That's a fair comment though bear in mind this doesn't have a click system and it's still easy enough to slice shots so it's not as if it was an absolute doddle to hit a perfect shot in the first place. And no doubt for me these 95% shots will mostly occur when I'm trying to clear a bunker or worse water! Again if it's part of the game going forward then I shall accept it and try to learn the perfect swing. Just need my left stick back first.

I don't see 95% shot on a driver to be a huge problem. Maybe long par 4's. If the other clubs are hitting fine, you're probably do well. Is anyone getting 95% on Irons and Woods?

I'm playing on a PS4 and experienced the less than 100% issue the first day of the update. It was horrendous and within a few hours HB said they fixed a server error. Now, I am getting 95 to 99%, but mostly 100%. A couple observations. It only seems to be happening with tee shots with a driver. I've had no problems achieving 100% with irons. I do think the mechanics are now more sensitive to any slight reduction or variance in the forward click. And for me, I tend to be more cautious off the tee, so is it me? While it is frustrating, It does add some randomness to the game. I'm a low handicapper in real life and can tell you very few swings are ever identical. So for those that wanted added difficulty into the game, perhaps you are enjoying this? Most other golf games I played required a 3 click method and had some variance if you didn't click at the precise moments. If the 100% power was meant to be a sure thing 100% of the time, wouldn't there just be a button to push once for swing with nothing else required? I agree on the last part. That's why I don't complaint when I overswing or underswing n the new pga game, its meant to happen, but in there... it works well. However, this is not the same. In a full 18th hole round I couldn't get more 5 shots with full power. Every other shot was 90 or 95%. So its not about complaining for not getting 100% but just not having a real reason for not achieving it. I wouldn't kill myself if once in while I ended up hitting 99, 98&. I guess it could happen and it does so in the new pga game, but never being able to hit 100 and simply not understanding as to why this is happening is the problem I literally tried everything... some people used to hold their back swing at the top for a few secs, I didn't it... tried using it and it work. Some people used to smash down the stick during the downswing, I didn't! I have tried that today and it didn't work

Yes, my ghastly first-round 70 in this week's CC-C tourney was due largely to a number of 92-95 percent iron shots leaving me 50 feet from the pin or off the green altogether. I didn't want to sound like a whiner (because I've whined about this before) so when I posted about my ghastly round I made no mention of this and just implied that I played really lousy. But yeah, this happens with irons too. The swing on this game has become Forrest Gump's box of chocolates.

I think if you made up your mind that EA wasn't for you people will wait to see what fix will come. EA is going to sell well because it's EA though personally they're the worst company I have ever known. But that's just me..I doubt this problem changes anyone's opinion.

Is this still an issue? I just played all 4 of my tournament rounds and only had one drive that was under 100%...

I thought i figured it out. But keep getting them at random times. This has ruined my experience with this game and before only had good things to say. I think i may just start creating courses. I was an avg player before and always shot for top 10s. This is the first week im not even going to make the imaginary cut. Im so disapoonted. I cant figure out why they would mess with swing mechanics when the games been out for so long.

I was thinking of canceling my preorder. But now cant wait to try it out. Its changed my opinion of this game that much. That was the most frustrating tourneys ive ever played.

Sorry to see ya go but damn it's only been a few days. Go have fun with EA, God forbid they have a problem and they fix the following year and 60 more bucks.

Just played 9 holes on xb1 and no shots under 100%. It's either fixed, or my standard swing is immune
