Using loft with clubs, especially with woods is harder to hit straight as the cone gets smaller, more quickly it seems.

Using loft with clubs, especially with woods is harder to hit straight as the cone gets smaller, more quickly it seems. I find this to be somewhat problematic, because of the distance variation between 3-iron and 5-wood. Sometimes I have to fully loft the 5-wood in order to get the ball to stop on the green when a 3-iron won't get there, and the cone was pretty small before the update. Now it might be impossible to fully loft a 5-wood. I'm on Xbox, so I haven't seen the update yet. But I'm hoping it's not so small that it becomes impossible to hit 5-wood with full loft.

A full loft 5wood pretty much requires a perfect shot now. Maybe a degree or two off but it is very slim.

I'm liking these updates the more I hear about them. Hopefully it'll get rid of a lot of the lofting, and rely a bit more on pure skill.
Talking of the updates, the wind waiting fix is due with this one isn't it? If it's server side, is it already live? Anyone know? I haven't looked on the HB forums lately.

Lofting is important because it is too hard to actually nail down a percentage shot. I can't actually make a 92% shot on purpose, and if anyone can, I'd like to know how they do it.

That's why I said "a lot of the lofting". There's no problem from my POV with a bit of loft to get into the 90's, but when you're whacking it up as much as it will go, well, it's hardly realistic is it? It also takes a lot of the skill out of it. It should be as difficult as possible.

So with the MAY update for the PC users, does this mean that all the PC users will be playing in the same wind conditions now?

Does the wind update mean the winds will stay the same for entire tournament timeframe? Or does it just mean the same on all platforms at a given time but still change the way it does now? If later is the case it won't change anything.

Each round of a tournament, comparable winds for all players across all platforms. Each round could have different winds, but they will be the same for all, and will be the same for the round. So if you have to bail on a round and come back to it later, you will have the same winds as when you left. Basically, exactly what you would expect of daily winds in tournament golf.

Not being able to make 90% on purpose is Just realistic as its near impossible to get any consistency and a really bad idea to try to hit percentage "feel" shots by swing manipulation in real golf as well. It's one thing this game has nailed and one thing that makes it feel more similar to real golf.

Regarding the out of bounds, I was playing in real life yesterday and 2 par 4's had out of bounds stakes down the left but not on the boundary of the course. I don't design courses on this game, was just wandering if its possible course designers to do it in the game
