It did not take long for me to figure it out, the controller is completely consistent, m/kb is totally random.

There is no MotownBrad registered to TGCTours and using PS4. There is a MotownGuy though.

Yes but we had this issue a ton during qschool, the wrong handle being registered, those scores were still allowed.

Well I know I'm fcked. Seen you on my uneven lie practice hole, I was just seeing if there was any consistency in the starting line, in the designer everything goes straight. On the course I was getting what seemed to be totally random results, so I published to see if consistency can be found and found none, seems to be totally random. Same lie, same shot, starts right left and center completely at random and by a very wide margin for me. First I have to figure out why I'm getting these random results. Thanks for doing this lie comparison. I thought it was just me that struggled with lies. It is the one area of the game that I don't even know what to practice since it seems random. And the difference between hitting it straight vs. having it jumping left or right is the difference between a 10 ft putt and a 30 ft putt, which for me is the difference between shooting -10 vs -5. Some folks have figured it out though if they are shooting better than -12 consistently. So the effect can't be random, either that or they can sink 30 ft putts consistently.

For tomahawk in particular I changed the view right to ground level in behind my golfer to see how much or little the side lie was. Helped a lot on the second shot to the par 5 6th. The lie in the landing area slopes left to right but the amount varies. Adjust too much and you end up in the bunker or rough. Adjust too little and you end up in the drink. It's a good habit to make checking side lie as part of your setup routine in tournaments.

I'm done, the m/kb play is fcked, the controller is far straighter. Surprised I never noticed this before. But I seen the same as you, very inconsistent and assumed it was happening to all and everyone. But when I seen -67, I said something must be up, no way, even If I could hit dead straight axis I could birdie every hole, every round that course with those lies.
So I went to my uneven lie practice and like in game found it to be extremely inconsistent, so I tried to miss axis with push or pull to see it would go in a consistent manner and still no joy, right left and center, no matter what or how I hit it, completely random.
Plug in controller, and bam consistent, miss right, goes right, miss left goes left, straight goes straight.
Problem I have now though is I have not practiced the controller for a long time, and putting will be hard till I adjust.
Bottom line, if you want to compete, you have to lose the kb/m play, no option, no alternative, the kb/m is costing minimum 5 strokes or more per round depending on the lies being uneven or not.

Motownguy shot the 67 under on the ps4. Great score For me , 3 practice rounds and the 4 tournament rounds I couldn't get the fairway kicks down well enough to take advantage of the course. Shot 32 under for 3 practice rounds and 43 under for the tournament. Hopefully 19 under makes the cut this week. Looking forward to next week coyote members and tour version courses, I've shot some very low scores on these two courses.

Scott it's not hard to check lie, it's easy, problem is, the result is not consistent, a ball below your feet, whether steep or not will either go left right or center, completely at random, no matter the axis miss or not. Its totally random. The lie only need be slightly off as well. This makes it hard if the landing area is tight, if the lie is uneven, the shot is likely going to jump right or left, a few times straight, it cannot be predicted or controlled and the dispersion is significant.
With the controller, it's predictable.
That's a pretty significant advantage.
I seen this months ago and posted in the forums and was told all was normal, but all is not normal, the controller is fine, perfect, the m/kb is fcked.
Had it not been for the -67 I would never have tested this and assume all was the same for everyone.
I'm not b%&ing, just suggesting m/kb users might want to know this, and I see they have been seeing what I have been seeing, today what surprised me the most was how consistent the controller is, with some practice I should have a new game coming very soon as well.
Actually looking forward to playing being able to aim.

To be clear what I noticed months ago was the complete randomness of the uneven lie.

This is why I've been asking the studio to give us some kind of visual lie indicator. No numbers or degrees, just a a visual like i'd have if I was playing real golf. Makes no sense that we can get an exact measurement of an elevation 250 yards away but we can't determine the lie from 3 feet away.
Lorin's response to the request post I made in the forum wasn't really good news. Seemed like the lie is something the studio doesn't want to reveal.

in my eyes the -67 shouldn't stand as he didn't register for the tourney. the -67 is a very very good total though. He was a sponsor for week 2, made the cut, he should be in this week but to late to officially register. Looks to me like the score will and should stand. -67, we have a new Tiger to chase. who is he steve? and how do you know all this stuff about him? what is his real name that shows up in the registration stuff? only one ps4 guy with a sponsership made the cut on either pga or european tour, Nathan Allen (TROWELHEAD), is that him?
