I use a wireless Xbox controller with my laptop it works fine I’m not seeing any differences between wired or wireless. I would assume it’s more reliably wired though. I’ve tried wired and wireless on my series x as well and haven’t noticed any difference. From what I can gather wired let’s your controller charge while playing but it still uses the wireless signal for control, unlike a PS controller where you can switch the Bluetooth off and use wired from what I can gather. Thanks for the input Les. Looking forward to your course by the way. Looks like you’re off to a great start! The desert course will be first I’m play testing at the minute, the one featuring my home town may be a bit longer.

I have a Series X controller Jeff but still playing with it wired!! I'm old fashioned and don't trust anything that you can't see the connection on!! I don't want the Mrs switching the toaster on and sending things haywire (our toaster may not be bluetooth but you get my drift) Ben I think the wireless Xbox controllers use MS proprietary wireless signal although some of the newer ones use Bluetooth I think. I think the Elite 2 controller uses Bluetooth. I’ve no idea really Les but I can see a wire connecting it to my PC so in my mind I’m happy even if everything is not as it seems 🤣

CF, any particular reason why you are tagging me on this post? Perhaps CF thought you were at a loose end. If you fancy scoring The Brew Crew Mike I may have an opening coming up for Season 7 😉

Random question for any PC players here at TBC. Any of you have experience playing the game with a wireless Xbox controller vs a controller connect via USB? I have played with an Xbox One controller via USB with both 2K19 and 2K21 but was considering upgrading to a wireless Xbox X controller. Any thoughts? Hey Hoosier, I did exactly this, but had a tough time with the bluetooth dropping signal just enough to make it not worth it for me. With the wired controller it has been an afterthought. Might be better wireless tech out there that I didn't/willing to pay for but that was my experience. For what it's worth.

The desert course will be first I’m play testing at the minute, the one featuring my home town may be a bit longer. Definitely more interested in the course in your home town, no offense. One of my absolute favorite things in this game is being able to play courses that have real meaning to players IRL.

SkyBlueBenKaraoke Night - Week 5 “How Low I’ll Go” I’ve been staring at the blade of my putter Long as I can remember Hoping I aimed it just right I wish that I was a better golfer But it comes down to the putter And the putts just go right by Every swing I take Every ball it tracks Every shot I make Every bird leads back To a place I know Where I can score low Where I help the team See the line on the grid on the green It’s moving And no one knows How balls will roll If the ball falls on in my score will drop down lower Maybe I’ll know If they go, there’s just no telling how low I’ll go Round one started out slow on the front nine Only scoring on the par fives Lucky there’s another nine Back nine I could not miss with the putter Birdied six of the nine holes I finished out at minus nine Round two played closer But was putting wrong Wasn’t satisfied Read the greens all wrong But the scorecard shows It was not that bad Shot minus seven Round three was similar to round one Starts slowly Was minus one After nine holes And it seemed like Les would be beating me After sixteen I’ll let you know Eagled seventeen Eagled eighteen too Round four more of the same on the front Could not score Then birdied five Holes in a row Sixteen and seventeen were trouble they raised my score Shot minus four And now onward! R1: -9; R2: -7; R3: -8; R4: -4 Can confirm, playing this game is much easier with new batteries 😂 which I’ve decided was last week’s problem I’m Running Home - Week 5 Fun course! Took a little bit of getting used to after playing rather wide open courses in recent weeks and definitely found myself in the trees more than a couple times. Had some tempo issues on the par 5s and a handful of putting mistakes but kept a clean card this week!

SkyBlueBen R1: -3 Awful play for most of the round. That's the problem when you are playing when you can fit a round in rather than when you feel like playing. C'est la vie!

SkyBlueBenMy apologies to my fellow Boozers but I just can't get motivated to play on a course that I find completely uninteresting. It's no secret that I have an affinity for RCR's but with the exception of last week's gem, I have found the courses so far this season to be lackluster (I'm purely speaking of courses for Beer League). I don't want to offend in any way the designers, the schedulers, the rangers etc who put in thankless hours to make all of this possible. Just not my cup of tea. Rant over. Round 1 76 (+4) Round 2 65 (-7)
