The condescending and braggadocio tone implying “we are so superior than all these soft brains that play on master tehehe” is pretty hilarious. If your hand eye coordination is so good that you only enjoy playing on legend then more power to you, but lecturing everyone over and over again who probably don’t have that ability why they are stupid just makes you sound like a pompous ass.
This is a game that everyone can play at different ability levels to have FUN. Not that difficult of a concept to grasp.

I don't want to seem boring, I play with PC/Steam plus Dual Sense gamepad, with Master swing if I draw those blue lines...my ball ends up 12 yards from the flag. I often watch the streams of the strongest players on Twitch, the XBOX and PS consoles seem more tolerant with those blue lines, it's difficult to find PC players in the top 10 plat/elite/kinetic positions... and if there are... they are players mouse keyboard

each to there own I'll suppose if u enjoy hitting darts then happy days , pleased for all the boys that enjoy hitting 10 upto 20 under a Rd. Me personally I'm just baffled why so many peeps constantly play Rd after Rd after Rd on the same settings hitting exactly the same shot , it's soooo boring hows that fun 😂😂😂. Gotta enjoy a flop over a bunker and try and hold it near the pin . Scrambling for par and when u make it its a fist punch . Legend may not be fun for you but there's quite a lot coming over and learning and scores are improving all the time , they have said its like a new game for them. The Sanctuary cross platform society has divisions with promotions & relegations so you have your own battles with peeps around your level . End of the day like u say it's a video game play how u like 👍. I see this discussion all the time, both here and on your own discord. I suspect you (specifically you and hammersman) aren't really able to see it from a perspective outside your own. I sifted through week 1 comparisons of 2024 vs. 2025 on a handful of the CC tiers and it appears there was mostly higher participation this season than last. Apparently, a large contingent of players still enjoy the competition on Master swing level. "it's soooo boring hows that fun"? Well, maybe it's not for you. So you play Legend. I think that's great. I'll probably dip my toe in from time to time when my tempo is somewhat under control. |

I see it outside my own way of playing and fully respect everyone playing how they wanna play the game . You find legend no fun I find it fun . I find masters on grids boring and you don't. Everyone's a winner
Everybody or the majority of peeps have got so good at the game now as its been out for so long . Think peeps just a little frustrated some want change some don't. New game soon please .

Tempo however is its great virtue. |

Personally, I’d far rather a game where there’s multiple ways to swing the stick to get a ball from A to B than just being a metronome grinding for a straight up and down perfect. There’s no one perfect golf swing, after all. I totally agree, if you can consistently hit the same swingplane that is a skill in itself. I actually hit the the same push as this guy on drives but purposely also hit a fast which is a manual draw in this game and my natural drive in real life also How many pro golfers hit a swingplane that is not in to out or out to in. The only one I can think of is Tyrell Hatton off the top of my head. But my criticism of master is that a swingplane that is an obvious push is giving the same result as hitting a dead straight line and the second hardest difficulty should not be that forgiving I am sorry. But my whole point is that people on this thread that accuse people of cheating don't really understand the swing mechanics of the game. No you don't have to be super human to hit crazy low scores on courses with realistic greens on an RCR if you are good at repeating your swing. And no to people who think that I think everyone should be playing a hardewr difficulty level I really don't. There are 5 swing difficulty levels if you want to play the game on an easy mode compared to your skill crack on.. |

I have both controllers, Dual Sense and Razor, nothing changes... on my PC if the blue line is not inside the white... the ball goes everywhere. I realized I'm poor at this game, I can score a round -12 -14...and the next not make a birdie...which is the strength of strong players, any course any green speed any wind...any shot a birdie |

I'm talking about using a Razer on Xbox by the way as regards it being so good for tempo, as I'm comparing it to the God awful stock controller where good tempo on any consistent basis is impossible.
I personally hate the swing plane on the Razer and the need to allow for it but there is no real choice.

Just play and enjoy, aim for par and a realistic score. Why just play all the time and quit early doors, this has baffled me for a long time? Tbh it's not all about who's the best with us it's about having fun on the toughest settings we have on the game. |

That might help you if that’s your weakness. I put almost everything I could into swingpath. |

From memory that’s what I did as I knew my swing path doesn’t always play ball and I still don’t know what transition even is so I didn’t put anything into it directly. |

Pretty sure transition is the transfer from backswing to forward swing.
For those that like to over power their shots, this ability becomes very useful as it minimises the amount the swing plane will shrink in.

Watched the -73 rounds of golf.Very very very impressive.My hand eye coordination can’t even compare one ioda to that play.Shot -10 for 2 rounds of tgc tonight and came up 4 shots short of making the cut.I will get it one of these days.For me the swing plane line is devastatingly bad when putting.That is the biggest area where a bad swing plane hurts
Outside of this game I’m a 70 shooting senior citizen.Who has been playing golf for over 50 years now.Thought my background in golf would help me in this game.So far, not so much..Really seems like many really mastered this game.Im in the group that never really grasped this game
Does lag have any effect on swing plane?

I have been playing IRL for many years, this background is of no use...because this "golf simulation" is played like a video game, hit'n'birdie on every hole, in every condition, every green speed, just a darts game, Most of those who score -70...maybe have never touched a golf ball in real life, but they are very good at video games. If you play true sim difficulty...the IRL background can help in choosing the point where the ball lands and in judging the lie of the ball, try playing true sim, you will find that in some aspects it is similar to the game of golf |
