How do you SEE ground slope? Is it guess work, when it is not totally obvious? Or is there some view button that i am not aware of? (On xbone) You can see when the ball is higher or lower than your feet.. Lower than your feet, and the ball goes right, higher the ball goes left (for right handed players)... How much right or left are educated guesses..

One thing I do with the driver, which I also do IRL, is to aim just off the side of the fairway where the wind is coming from and shape is slightly with the wind. This tends to give you a nice big landing area and generally you'll get a bit of extra distance riding in on the wind.
For approach shots completely agree, shaping into wind should give you less roll out and more control. Need to practice doing that in TGC, I tend to focus more on the contours of the greens and allow the wind to take the ball... I suspect given time I'll get better results shaping it
Cheers all for the advice

(On xbone) I don't take any notice of the slope unless it's noticeable, normally you can see if the club head is above or below your feet. As for the wind I have recently started using fade and draw technique and have found I'm hitting straighter then ever, I struggle without wind now, how weird is that! Lol.

I have the same problem mate.. If there is no wind.. I can't get close.. .. I play best in 9 - 15mph

I used doyleys method at first but I didn't like how calculated it felt and I also thought it was slightly off (maybe something I was doing wrong). Anyway I've resorted to my tiger woods ways and just aim the marker to what feels, looks right. It's something I have developed over many years of playing golf games, much quicker and it rarely let's me down.
