I've already seen the numbers from a TGCT exhibition event. While they aren't the same out to 7 decimal places, they are strikingly the same out to 3. All my perfects register as .066 and usually .0667-8-6 right around there. So accurate to 4 decimal places is pretty good in my book. All my fasts and slows exhibit this exact same behavior. I'm not sure what the numbers are, but if those are seconds, then being accurate out to 1000ths of a second surely can't be correct here. If you are hitting perfects to 3-4 digits, you have a problem.. a pretty big problem. While scripting may not be the issue, too low of a DPI can be. Typically anything over 4 digits really doesn't matter as the swings are too close at that point. I suggest you raise your DPI by several hundred and try again, or if you think there is an HB issue, do as Craig suggested and post it to the 2k forums. I'm not 100% sure what the new API will look like but hitting shots that are grouped within the same 3-4 digits I believe is going to be a problem and with mouse players, it usually means the DPI is set too low.

In case I missed it, I'm guessing the WGR's aren't going to be reset this time around cause that will undoubtedly cause all sorts of problems again?

It's not my DPI, for starters I don't really have a DPI setting, I do have a speed setting for my cursor, and it's on 7 out of 10 I believe. But I can change that to be slower or faster and this same problem exists. I also have acceleration(or precision) off, so it's not that either. As far as I can tell this is NOT a DPI problem, there's something else at play here. Let's also not forget I played 2019 with all the same setup and never had this issue. I had varied swing tempos then. So this is something that has changed with the new game.

I had varied swing tempos then. So this is something that has changed with the new game. Every mouse player has a DPI. One of the biggest problems with people who were failing the API as a mouse user were those who used a mouse with no ability to set the DPI using software. In other words the DPI was hard presets where you could make it (for example) 400, 800 and 1200. Those types of mice really caused problems. HB has continually suggested a DPI of 1000-1200 at the minimum, depending on the mouse. If you played 2019 without issues, then you shouldn't have any issues here. I'm just saying that hitting perfects with that little differentiation in your swings may cause a problem, it may not depending how the data from the API is implemented.
I go back to my original suggestion. If you are concerned... set up a bug report in 2k. That comes directly from Craig at HB. Is there a reason you wouldn't do this?

Due to the changes in spin and shot shaping, imo, the short game and approaches are easier in 2K21. I've only played 9 hole practice rounds to date, but on Masters my best through 8 holes is -9, and on Legend, with everything turned off (including feedback), -7 through 9. You don't need to hit a single "perfect" to score well either.
Depending on the course, -50 is easily attainable.
Swing timing turned off? Golf without a hook or slice?

Will there be specifications for equipment when participating in the tour? If I got it right, clubs will have an impact on the game.

Judging by the leader boards in the Exhibition events not many are playing them

I start them all, but sometimes I run out of time to finish them rather than give up because I'm not playing well. It's all practice. I've finished the CC one because that's the one that my scores show up in on the website, played one round of two others and half a round on Merion.

Just played challenge #6.
Struggled as normal but +1 on last round came from somewhere. ..but dunno where
Of course I feel the two courses in qualifying will be harder...in fact I know one is cos I've lost four in the water and ain't got to the turn yet in practice.

I finally shot a round under par on the Elite tour. Judging by my play this preseason, I won't be staying up there. I didn't belong there to begin with, but I got bumped up to CC-A after a high finish, then shot lights out in a promotion event to skip Korn Ferry altogether. If i had to guess, I'd say that unless my putting comes around, and SOON, I'll be in CC-A or B, with an outside shot at Kinetic if I play well. Both other times I played Q-school, I started in CC-C.

Just trying to get an idea of where I stand are the current test events monitored or are they running with the current settings

Does anybody know what course(s) will be used for Qualifications?
Nevermind. Somebody answered me.
