After getting the series x and then having my elite controller go faulty and changing to the standard controller I’ve been struggling to get my tempo right and have not calibrated again since starting the game.
I’m planning on spending time calibrating again but what I don’t understand is when people say try to hit ten perfects, what is perfect in calibration? Surely perfect is what I’ve already been trying to play for so nothing would change? Or does it mean try to push the stick back and forwards at as much as possible the same tempo?

I've calibrated with ten slows, just to see if it helped with getting perfects, it didn't, then the other day with ten very fasts. This helped enormously initially but I seem to have lost the knack of getting perfects again. I'm on Xbox so it's never going to be easy.
As someone else has said, it's worth calibratíng with different tempos then seeing if it helps getting perfects for you ( we're all different ) and keep doing it until you get your own personal sweet spot. I intend to try this.
Edit: Always try to hit ten close to the same tempo when calibratíng. I believe eight out of ten very similar tempos are required for calibration to change anything.

Should a recalibration be done after a version update? What are peoples thoughts here?

I think calibration really does not do anything and your tempo is dictated by the server, as it was last game....but that’s just a theory and I go back and forth all the time. With that being said though, IF calibration works would it not make sense for you to have an “accept” button for these swings that count towards the 10? What I mean is, too often Ill go calibrate and immediately have a couple swings that don’t feel right. Most of us I assume, have played this game long enough to know what our perfect feels like. On those swings, you hit x or whatever to accept it. If you don’t, that swing is thrown out. This eliminates the bad swings from the calibration...no brainer!

Thanks for responses guys!
What I’m trying to understand is if you went into calibration and swung 10 times so slow that you get that club coming out of your hand kind of swing going right and did that ten times would that in theory become a perfect in the real game?

The theory (don't know if has been proven or disproven, though) is that there is a minimum and maximum tempo that you can calibrate to. If you go outside of those areas it will stick to the "fastest" or "slowest" tempo that is allowed. |

I have a job getting two swings with the tempo the same so no idea how I’ll get 10 😄 Ive just been getting lots of slows lately and never had this before and feels like I’m having to swing too fast to get a perfect and that’s why I thought I better calibrate again to see if I can slow my swing down to reach perfect. It’s becoming like a science this game 😄 |

I just did mine again as I was having issues with my normal swing producing red fasts all the time after that update. Went and played a few holes in the CC event after and most of the swings were perfect, a few grey either side and one really bad red slow which I felt when I did it.
When calibrating I didn't bother trying to hit it slow or fast or whatever, just tried to maintain my normal tempo.

Yeah, that's how I did it last time when I began having a few inconsistencies. It was fine in game until this update so just did it again. Worked for me. |

Or does it mean try to push the stick back and forwards at as much as possible the same tempo? 10 full swings, not 10 perfects. I’ve always had good luck when calibrating by moving the stick however feels natural/relaxed to me and that I know I can easily repeat every time (almost). |

Keep in mind - if you have a calibration that is decent - say 6 or 7 out of 10 shots go perfect after calibration - you could go back in to 'refine' - if you were able to do say 6 perfects - go back into the calibration and try to hit those the same again (calibration won't show you the swing result, but you should know at this point what the ball flight and sound is when you hit a perfect) - once you have 4 shots that don't go the same as the perfect would, CANCEL the calibration by going into the pause menu - this way it doesn't 'undo' what you already have done. Rinse/Repeat until you can turn the 6 perfects into 8, 9, or 10...
I think calibration does make 'some' difference - but my problems lie with putting and approach shots. I seem to be able to hit drives perfect - but am mostly slow on irons (sometimes fast) - then putting is a crap shoot as I'm constantly 30-40 ft from hole.
Another member mentioned using the EXACT same timing for every shot - I know the animation is slightly different from driver to iron - but the timing should still be the same. I've had limited success with this as I can't seem to train my brain to the timing.
OH, and BTW - for partial pitch shots - which are terrible if you don't hit perfect - with the slower animation - don't pay any mind to that - instead USE THE SAME TIMING - I've found partial pitch shots have become much more consistent using this method..
Good Luck all !!

I've noticed I've been getting a lot more whites in the swing power thing at the bottom lately, I don't feel like I'm doing anything differently, sometimes it's less than 100% as well. I wonder if they have made a slight change to the speed of the backswing?

When calibrating the fast/perfect/slow feedback is supposed to be missing? It just come to me why they would do this. I understand calibrating is just to find your natural swing tempo but it would help if you got the feedback.
Also how do you tell if you hit a perfect with the wind sometimes bring 12mph left to right? Do you hit the range first to see where the shot lands hitting perfect and remember that when calibrating?
Sorry I just realised I’ve asked a million questions 😄 but I’ve just calibrated and my normal swing is giving me fasts and trying to understand what better to do now 😬
