I hadn't noticed. Not sure what you mean by considerably bigger but surely it is club dependant anyway. Put it this way from someone who played every Beer League event, it never felt particularly different throughout. Ok, maybe maybe I’ve just got better at the game as it’s pretty hard to miss perfect now. I hadn’t played a round on pro since October last year. But I can easily miss perfect. You are an excellent player, I am a poor one. For me the change is good, for you the change sucks. I spent the whole of last season struggling and hating the game at times at Master level, you honed your skills and probably had a great time. The up coming season is a compromise while we await a new game desperately hoping they don't fcuk things up again!

Is it? So the Grey fast area has been shifted (but kept the same size) but the red fast area shrunk accordingly, AND been made less penal? Or has the grey fast are shrunk and the red fast area stayed the same? Obviously this is all down to timing windows rather than areas, but most in this conversation should understand my illustration. As noted above, what club set you use changes the perfect window, but I wasn't aware anything else had changed it. Just read the title, I shouldn't even be here! lol I'll close the door on my way out. Haha! Don’t be daft 🤣

It will hopefully bring back a lot of players. It is a shame though that the top 200 to 300 players are not being catered for.

Beat me to it fadge 😆 Hb have all the ingredients to make the best golf game ever but the gameplay is always flawed in one way or another.
The perfect window on pro hasnt changed its all club based on swing plane and forgiveness. I play masters with pro loads on ps5 using a ps5 pad and you can miss tempo if you get lazy but depending on the settings and the courses you can shoot higher scores. Ok a higher score is -8 ish instead of a 15 16 under but you have to be faultless to score well. If you knock it to 15ft youve still gotta make those putts. S8 is gonna be all about the putting. I putt better on masters cos the mishit window is smaller and you find you get better percentages. On pro you can get various perfects and that 1-2% can mean you miss the putt. I find on masters i hit my window alot and they go in 9 out of 10 on pro my mates call me gillette because of the amount of putts i shave if im not on point with my maths! Has anyone checked that you cant just switch to your putter for grids in the fairway to check your lie. Might be worth a look.

Whats a shame is the top 200-300 players. Theres the same again that were the top players that had just lost all interest and hopefully will come back and show the pretenders how to do it 😆 😆

Agree that those who worked very hard at the muscle memory to become consistent at Masters are getting penalized here. The best will still be the best, but their hard work in getting there has been de-valued. Obtaining a Perfect is skill-based and the product of conscientious practice and commitment.

Amazing 😂

Its not skill if your playing on a ps4 dude. Thats why its getting changed. Calibrate and bash thats all it is. It gives you a pro mishit window anyway. And if what kara said is true that you can use a ds4 on a ps5 on master its exactly the same. They should of just blown off the cobwebs and distributed the hori's 😆

Did you stop playing when they needed the red fast? Apologies if this not the case just not seen you on the leaderboards in a while

He did, he just understands and acknowledges how easy it is. Plus how biased the cross platform game is in this state.

But Hippy saying it’s not skill is nonsense. It was a skill he couldn’t master hence why he quit when he couldn’t exploit the red fast

No i play ps5 dude! I used to play ps4 and played for perfects on ps4 from day 1. Dont get me wrong if the shot warranted the red fast id use it but irons were always attempted perfect. Early pga2k vids on ps4 still on my youtube. Also vid on how broke the game was! Been on ps5 since release date and just lost interest. Played here and there still finished top 20 in money list i think but lost all interest and i was no way firing up the ps4 just to compete on tour. I had 9 holes a couple of months back and its was glitchy and horrible to play compared to the 5 and i still hit perfect nearly every shot cos calibration was good. Ps5 requires no calibration. You get out what you put in. Thats how it should be. Plus the controller is 10 times as sensisitive compared to the 4. Ive shanked putts from 4ft if i lose concentration 😆 masters and pro!
