First off this looks like a fantastic place to settle in. I have been deciding between this and the other golf game. Your setup here has me buying TGC. So my question is this, I own both a ps4 and xb1. No console war wanted, but which would YOU buy it for? Any advantages for either? I have no friends that play golf and I enjoy both controllers so they don't factor.
Thanks!!

PC. Although if you want to play it on a console, probably PS4 looks a bit better? I'm just guessing, I only have a PC.

If it's not and your PS4 is in a more comfortable area, then PS4. I would make sure you are using a PS4 or XB1/360 controller on the PC.

I'll give my 2 cents. I have the XB1 version of the game. Not sure the distribution here but I believe there are more PS4 and PC players.
As for differences, you can probably comb through the forums and find various debates over time. My only experience is with XB, but there is no proven system that is better than others. Certainly no real advantages when it comes to playing the game. Tournaments and conditions are the same on all. So it probably comes down to preference with the controller.
You might get a better answer from someone that has tried this on multiple platforms.
And welcome to the site!

I think ps4 has the largest player base, so if you are looking for people to play with that might give it the edge. But Xbox has s good community as well

PC isn't an option for me really. I have a Mac. Console for me for comfort. Since I have no friends that play golf on either console it looks like the ps4 with the bigger player base may be the way to go. Is their a graphical difference??

If you're picking between PS4 and XB1, I would suggest PS4 due to larger player base and slightly better performance and graphics.

I have the game on both consoles. I've never really noticed much of a difference in graphics or performance between the two, but I am significantly better on XB1, mostly because I prefer the stiffness and placement of the control sticks on XB1. In 3 events on PS4, I had no top 25s and one missed cut; in 25-30 events on Xbox, I have been outside the top 25 only three times and have missed zero cuts. This may be unique to me, but I felt it was at least worth mentioning.

My biased opinion is to get it on xbox only because I have just an xbox. That being said, it just boils down to controller preference and whatever is more comfortable for you. A word of advice also, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Have fun with it and enjoy the competitions. There is always going to be someone better than you so don't let it get you down. After playing Yates' ghost on xbox one for the better part of my time on here I can tell you that with confidence haha. Welcome to TGC!

I would never suggest a PC for this game. For the consoles everything is pretty much uniformed. The programmers knows within a good range how powerful the consoles are going to be from one generation to another. With a PC they are guessing. Different CPU, PSU, GPU, Ram and monitors with varying MHz, GHz, refresh rates and such make it much more difficult for them to create a game that will be the same across the PC platform. That being said, if you can use a controller, use it. It is much better than a mouse. I would be using one after a year of playing if it weren't for thumb surgery. :/

Add DoubtfulObelisk or Nemecyst or DaddyJules on XB if want to see how to play this game. (Not intentionally leaving anyone out - those names are ones I try to learn from). The top tour guys are a whole different level than me.

I'll add the guys you mentioned. I went with xb version. Downloading now. I chose xb because I have one upstairs and down. Only one ps4. Although I prefer the ps4 overall.
