I did mention I would stay on masters for BoB, but I am seriously considering just switching over to Pro and be done with it.. I find the more I play on Pro - the more frustrating I get playing Masters. Maybe I'm getting used to only hitting perfect and Greys I'm considering the same thing. I'm not going to compete at the Master setting nor will I compete at the Pro setting but I may have a less frustrating experience wallowing in mediocrity at the Pro level. Me 3. I just enjoy the pro swing more. The masters just feels like a grind to be honestโฆand one that is not enjoyable enough.

I've seen you throw down some impressive scores on Masters and Pro Mike

I changed my mind, just gonna role with the Pro clubs settings from TGCT seeing everything is going to be that way from now on in pretty much all societies. Im still gonna have a big gap between most of you anyway and will save a few strokes but it may be more enjoyable for now until a new game comes out.

Must admit, I think I'm now leaning that way too. Question though: are the settings going to mirror TGCT settings or are they going to be straight up Pro settings?
Played my first round this week and shot a pretty decent 63. Tempo was pretty good for the most part but missed a few opportunities. Having said that I also made a couple of long par putts so swings and roundabouts. Yet another excellent course in a season full of them! Great job Dave ๐. No way EA EVER gives us this kind of variety.
Just for the record, I do still prefer the Masters grind but I'm also all about the continuity. I only really play the Tours, BOB and Friday nights and I think I need to be playing the same in all 3 to maximise my chances of any success.

I'd mirror the TGCT settings as many Xboxers are going to head back to the Tours. I'm a consistency kind of guy lol.

Week 8 Rd 2 Came in with the goal of finishing this event at a double-digit finish. Given that I came in at -6 I figured this was a reasonable goal but you never know. Started with two birdies and it felt like I was off to the races. Then some tempo cam into play. The first par 5 I had that dreaded back to back fast which put me in a tough spot. I ended up 96ft away for a birdie which I calmly hit the putt only to see this tap the flag stick (which pisses me off it defaults to being in on distance putts for whatever reason)....and it doesnt drop. It literally barely hit the stick. After this I basically spent the entire round hitting one good, one bad shot in succession over and over which pretty much lead to a par fest. Sitting at -8 going into 18 I needed a eagle to hit that 10 under. Bad tee shot (slow) hurt my chances. Basically hit out of the rough just to get back to the fairway. Was left a 120yrd shot in. Hit a absolute beauty into the green and I was thought it was a done deal for eagle. Ball ended up rolling to the pin and stopped about 2 ball rotations short. Tapped in for a -9. I played like ass on the par fives with the exception of the 18th and took all pars. This easily could of been my best finish but it got spoiled with some bad tempo and I think Jason opened his yap before we started which is the kiss of death. Enjoyed both rounds despite the errant shots and looking back I feel like I played better than the score showed but it is what it is. Kudos to OldManGaming606 throwing up that monster score in round two.

Things should be pretty close or exact to what tours is doing. If you come in finishing a round at -6 but you could of shot a -12 if you could of seen the wind speed and ball lie, that's just silly. The change to the Pro clubs offsets anything they have turned off which should not hinder your ability to put up a good score.

Not that there is any rush right now.
There have been 9 people confirming Master with roughly half of those considering a change to Pro. There have been 11 confirm Pro clubs.
Still a month of BoB rounds to play at Master and hopefully a few weeks of tours will be played by the time you need to make a decision.

I personally don't play much different on pro compared to masters so i am happy to go with either.

Still a month of BoB rounds to play at Master and hopefully a few weeks of tours will be played by the time you need to make a decision. I've got mixed feelings. I enjoy Masters as I have stated, but with fewer and fewer opportunities to play master difficulty, I feel like maybe I should play Pro. I'm generally not much on conformity though.

Iโm officially done with the crap shoot of the master swings especially around the greens. I have gone to a pro setup (notice my scores this week. Iโm actually under par!)
