I'm really confused about what to do for next season. The scoring on the Tours is essentially back to TGC1 levels, which is fine, it's just a different mindset (again!). I've enjoyed my rounds this week and got myself in the mix after 2. I notice a few other BOB players are doing similarly well or better, I seem to be chasing digsb around again! There are Xbox players at or near the top of every leaderboard except Plat, and even there the 2 players we have look like making the cut. Going to Pro may not be everyone's cup of tea (including mine) but it does seem to have given us a fighting chance cross platform. But I do still prefer Master. I'm still leaning towards switching to Pro for BOB just for the continuity. Played my first round of BOB last night and my tempo took 9 holes to figure out after playing the TGCT round first. Maybe I should do it the other way round? I have started to play all my masters societies on one day and all my pro ones on a different day. If I'm rushing to get them in I always play master first. Not only does it help my masters scores, but it makes pro seem that much easier after.

At the halfway point I'm -9 at the BoB. I didn't notice much difference other than more distance off of a poor shot. Those nice fat fairways made things forgiving.
I partial pitch so I don't know how well the splash is working now.
I'm going to see how the rest of the season shakes out before I make a firm decision on master or pro.

I'll duck out after this season I think. Lost all motivation lately and will most likely buy FIFA this week. But I'll be trying my damndest to hold onto my lead in Alpha!
Couple of thoughts on the changes.
First, I'm assuming the console disparity simply can't be fixed: they obviously know about it and are still tweaking the game so if they were capable of doing a workaround for the controller or whatever causes it they'd do it.
And secondly, they are honestly among the worst Devs in gaming for communication with their playerbase. I mean, they're bound to keep an eye on TGC Tours and know there's a season starting with an ongoing debate around swing difficulty. Yet they stay silent and drop the update immediately after. Clowns. The update itself seems fine I guess. Seems a bit daft to change it so drastically back in April then creep slowly back to the original build but hey ho, it seems better than it was. Reckon I'll hold off on the new game for a while until I see a few videos or streams of the gameplay.

I may get the new EA game as long as it comes with 100 (no DLC) or so real courses and looks knockout awesome and game play is better than Rory arcade game. But with HB/2K they really need to blow this thing up and get a better engine. This one is 15 year old. Completely outdated. Keep the course designer and go forward not sideways. I will wait to here reviews from the general public on how the game plays. Not the 10 twitch dudes that kiss their ass.

Another HB update backfire. You never know they could've been pulled from game cus sponsor backed out. You'll never find out cus HB never speaks.

I originally had a hunch TGCT knew the original patch was coming - but now I think there is just no communication whatsoever. Insane as TGCT drives a core part of the community.

It is not shown in the clubs selection screen for me. The purple and silver are though. So you see the gold set on your screen?
