I get your point and 100% agree with "Look in the mirror", however, some of what you say is not entirely accurate. By the way, All though I'm not a Red Faster, well, not on purpose, I didn't view it as cheating. It was part of the game that anyone could practice and do. Cheating is the manipulation in some form to gain an advantage over others. There is no manipulation in the Red Fast. Back in 2019 edition, having a controller that always hit straight, that was cheating. That being said, my issue with Red Fast was on principle. It's not the intent of the game. If it were the intent, what the hell is the purpose of the White bar in the middle? For that reason, I have always tried to be within the white bar. Those that practiced and became proficient with the Red Fast had a distinct advantage. That is fact. So to claim they were just better putters than me is probably a false allegation. Matter of fact, I'm the one scrambling my butt off because my red fast went in the woods or in the sand because I didn't start out 30 yards right of the fairway. I was trying to hit the fairway like you are supposed to. 1) Advantage Red Faster. Now getting on the green of a par 4 from the fairway versus the rough, we all know is much easier. 2) Advantage Red Faster. Chances of having an easier birdie putt after that shot from the fairway, versus that shot from the rough. 3) Advantage Red Faster. Yet somehow I manage to play as well as the rest of them. So give them 3 weeks, hell give them 3 months and tell them to bring it. In the mean time, I will continue to play the game as it was intended. And if they beat me, I'm happy for them, but don't stereotype non-Red Fasters as bad putters or bad short game people. Don't act like there wasn't an advantage. Not one time did I lose and act like it was only because the other person was playing red fast or have an advantage. I recognize when I lose that I didn't play well enough to win. I missed a putt or I put a drive in the water or OB. I own my mistakes and continue to try and improve. But it's still a hard game and that's what I love about it. The challenge is me against the course, not me against you. Can we leave this as a dead issue. I'm hoping we can all get back to what is like prior to 2K21. We all had a blast then. Todd you haven't zipped your trap on this for 6 months. Let opinions be heard for a week or so.

If people want to vent let them vent. Red fast guy will have to adjust and inconsistent tempo guy like myself will have to adjust. I will miss the purposeful red fast for carry distance, gaps in clubs, and quick playing a round but will figure something out.

I AM DIGS B AND I WAS A RED FASTER. I am sorry for any pain that I caused and my penance is that I have been promoted to the elite tour and I can’t hit a shot anymore. I would like to bring into to consideration that I also push old ladies over and tortured ants in my childhood but these things seem minuscule compared to REDFASTING. Please absolve me of these sins. The bigger boys made me do it. Lmao Digs it’s like we lived the same life thousands of miles apart

You can keep beating a dead horse. Sure it’s your opinion and you’re certainly entitled to it. Just as you’re entitled to play the game you see fit. But honestly the quicker we move past this issue the better. The game has changed. Players will adapt. Life moves on. This tight group of Xbox swingers will move on with or without you. The choice is yours. There’s just no place for this toxicity any longer. PGA 2K provided us enough of that. On that note, feel free to hit me up if you see me on and need a playing partner -recovering red fast addict / Ratchel / Julie Mr Ashur That was a very good speach and i totaly agree. The game is hard and should be hard and we all try to make it as easy as possible if thats going fast,slow or move the stick all kind of ways shouldnt be an issue. We always have and will adapt. And i bring a beer or two any day to play you cause beer is the Only thing we both are addicted to.... Cheers.. I’m aiming to beat the 5 beers in the last 18 holes we played during Ryder cup. Cheers!

Hey guys, I can't figure out how to @ wizzfox. Have sent a few messages on XBL over the weekend, but haven't heard back. Wizzfox, if you're out there, let me know if you have time today for our match (otherwise I did play the one-rounder in our society and have saved the scorecard). good job when our group tight in points but you got those wins well played and good luck

I can do 6pm UK time Tuesday (so tomorrow 1pm EST?) - no good for me Weds-Fri this week unfortunately. Please confirm and let's go with that! 6pm tomorrow it is! Where do we find the course settings? I was able to take our match 7&5. Putter got hot and was able to mostly keep it in the fairway off the tee. Good match!
