Wow. It's been a while.....

So I used to play this game ALOT, but I kinda fell out of love with it, put it down and haven't played for maybe a couple of years now. I've recently been given a copy of 2019 and am enjoying it again but I'm really out of touch with how the site works so a couple of questions.

I presume as I havent logged in and played for ages my old tour card has been removed?
Would I need to do Q school again? (Did everybody re-do Q school when the new version came out?)
Anything else I need to be aware of since I last played? New rules etc.

Basically any info you can give me to help refresh me would be great!

*edit* is Wags still about moaning?

Welcome back Ruskie. Everyone went through Q-School again when the new game arrived. I would be surprised if your old profile has been deleted, but if you have to re-register, once done go to the in game societies and search for Q-School, join this society, and away you go. See you in the PGA, lol

Hi, thanks for the welcome. I think I remember playing with you in one of the many community events that loughry? used to run or maybe the RRCC??

I dunno about reaching PGA lol, what little skill I did have at the game has vanished, can’t remember how to putt.

I’ve had a bit more of a prod about and my account is still valid but I don’t have a tour card anymore. Guess that’s because I haven’t played the new version up until now. Gonna have to go through that harrowing experience again 😂

Anything else I need to be aware of since I last played? New rules etc. YES - too many to go over so best to skim through Rules/Policies page

bubbadave: Truthfully. Give me a 170 over a 135 any day. Nov 26, 2024 17:43:11 GMT -5

sroel908: And as someone who's rangered/scheduled hundreds of courses, trying out a wide range of conditions, I can say with certainty that green speeds do have an impact and definitely matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:48 GMT -5 *

sroel908: Green firmness is more about how the ball interacts with the putting surface when you hit an approach into it. A soft green is more receptive, and will allow more backspin than a firm one. A firm green will have less bite and more rollout. Nov 18, 2024 15:57:00 GMT -5

meunier33: I have seen 135 greens that putt like they are 170. Therefore, we can conclude that green speed does not matter. Nov 18, 2024 15:31:35 GMT -5

meunier33: Why isn't there a green firmness meter on the score bug? Green firmness matters much more than green speed. Nov 18, 2024 15:28:26 GMT -5

keyan: thanks Nov 17, 2024 18:40:12 GMT -5

keyan: has anyone got any good donald course esque courses Nov 16, 2024 16:48:57 GMT -5

meunier33: I still play this game like it was the game before 2K21. Up until this month I have never tried to change anything about how I play the game. It has made me worse trying to adapt also. Nov 13, 2024 15:23:56 GMT -5

OldManGaming606: The biggest swing adjustment and best for competitive golf IMO, was 2k21 and addition of tempo. Nov 13, 2024 7:31:02 GMT -5

Art Vandelay: each time the game has been issued (TGC, TGC2, TGC19, etc) the game play changes. Some more than others. You have to adapt. Or go away, like some have. Nov 12, 2024 20:16:52 GMT -5

Wutpa: I think a lot of people here have figured out what your problem is, and it's not what you think it is. Nov 12, 2024 15:23:34 GMT -5

meunier33: EG the best swing used to be hard and low and not a high swing like it is now. Nov 12, 2024 14:51:27 GMT -5

meunier33: Im finally figuring out what my problem is though. I play the game like it used to work 4 or 6 years ago and I have trouble adjusting to how it now plays Nov 12, 2024 14:49:57 GMT -5

zooby97: Is that all meunier33 does is COMPLAIN? Will you please ditch the game so I don’t have to see the complaints anymore, wow! Nov 12, 2024 14:06:54 GMT -5

Art Vandelay: Amen prowse00 to that! Nov 11, 2024 11:21:49 GMT -5 *

prowse00: give it a rest Nov 11, 2024 7:49:56 GMT -5
