Have recently had to change my swing to accomodate the fact that if i did nt i would be hitting everything into the left rough trees water whatever is on the left im in it  But i have had to adjust my swing due to the fact that for some reason i cannot now take analog straight back like i have been doing from day one i have to take it back to the right in order to hit it straight or slightly left and every now and again i get a right which can be a disaster anyway just wondering has anyone else come across similar problems back to the driving range for me  |

Sort of
Tour clubs - must pull back to the right otherwise everything is a slice. Controller held cocked to the right. I find when I lose my swing it’s not because I am pulling back at a different angle but because I’m applying downward pressure (pushing) the stick on backswing. So I lightly rest thumb on stick for backswing.
Player clubs - used to also pull back to the right to hit straight. Now must pull back straight. If I pull back to the right everything is a slice. Controller heldcocked to the right to allow of natural thumb movement with my grip. Don’t know when the perceived change in backswing angle occurred. Over the last 3 weeks maybe

You have to be straight on both elements and tempo has to be refined. So yes I changed my swing but more with concentration than any big controller position.

Thanks for the reply lads at least i now know it wasnt just me i have always used tour clubs but it defo has changed recently for sure i always took it straight back at the start. as far as tempo is concerned when your confident standing over ball your tempo will flow but if your standing over ball and not sure were its going to go that is a different story u lose confidence and things just get worse i look forward to seeing u lads in the middle of the fairway. love the challenge of game and the way you do have to focus and concentrate on nearly every shot on the odd occasion i di get rounds were i was on auto pilot but its been a while since i have done that. |

I play with a mouse and have to, every bloody day, go and play a couple of holes on à course to find out what DPi setting (600, 800 or 1000) I have to play on to not get slow/ fast or curver's or any other glitch shot one can think of before I go and play a tour round or two and even then its not a certainty it won't mess me up at some point.

To be fair - changing the DPI every day is probably the CAUSE of the tempo issues you are having - just stick with one DPI, and then you can actually try and get a consistent pace of swing ingrained. If you have to move the mouse fast one day, then slow the next (due to changing DPI) - how on earth are you going to know how to swing it? |

I'm on inverted and half to pull straight back and then push slightly to left to get a slight fade. If I push to far right it's a slice and to far left it's a hook.

I'm having this same issue and just about thinking this game is broke somehow. Did my Q school last week and felt like I had the tempo down pretty much. All of the sudden this week, I'm having to rocket the mouse forward about throwing my arm out of socket just to get a perfect downswing. I think it would be physically impossible to have a quick downswing. Every now and then, I get a very slow down swing even when I'm still shooting the mouse forward about as quickly as physically possible. Nothing on my system has changed since last week. |

Regarding backswing and downswing. I believe thereto be a correlation between the required speed of downswing to achieve "perfect" and the speed with which you do the upswing. For instance, I have developed a method of waggling and then pulling back the stick (PS4) very fast, then slight pause, then pushing forward very fast. However, noticed if I am a bit tentative on the back swing (meaning I only pull it back pretty fast), then I get slow backswing. I find that if I pull the stick back usually fast (very fast), then if I just flick the stick forward a bit to get the downswing, I get very slow downswing. However, if I pull back the stick very slow, then just barely flick the stick forward on the downswing, I do not get a slow downswing...
I'm not communicating this well. But speed you have to do downswing is dependent on how fast you did upswing to get perfect/perfect. They have to be equal (either fast, medium or slow for both)...at least on PS4 and PC...

They have to be equal (either fast, medium or slow for both)...at least on PS4 and PC... Very true!! As far as I understand the mechanics, there is a post on some forum somewhere but cant for the life of me find it where it states "the downswing has to be faster then the backswing" something in the lines of 1 / 3 respectively (it wouldn't really matter how fast one does the backswing as long as the downswing is 3x faster... I really doubt its 1 / 3 but it is something, this something is very shady indeed because a driver swing isn't the same as a Iron swing or a pitch/ flop/ chip or whatever swing)). I also noticed the, and this is, I think (coming from TW08), my flaw in this game... downswing speed in this game doesn't allow for increasing speed... Explanation: Pulling back on, in my case the mouse (backswing) at speed X and moving forward (downswing) starting slow and going faster and faster up doesn't work. The point where speed, for lack of a better word' is 'recorded' is in the first half cm of the downswing movement it self (forward movement). This would explain the DPi problems I'm having, no matter what DPi settings i'm using, the game plays the same, however and this is something totally different, this game very often has glitches in regards to either back or down swing speeds due to.. twilight zone somethings. As for putting: Its simple.. I hate putting but its a essential part of the game  My two cents anyways |

yeah i had to completely change my thumb position on the analogue from the way I held it on tgc1.
|

But i have had to adjust my swing due to the fact that for some reason i cannot now take analog straight back like i have been doing from day one i have to take it back to the right in order to hit it straight or slightly left and every now and again i get a right which can be a disaster anyway just wondering has anyone else come across similar problems back to the driving range for me
