Agree as it has more clubhead weight than an iron, but a poor lie requires more loft and steeper angle to get it forward. Irl for me 6 iron maximum and played more back in my stance. They are getting better each game with heavy rough though. I know people always cry out for better visuals but realistic mechanics and physic are more important for a great golf game. Some lies I used to get even a sand wedge was needed to move it 🤣 I find it depends on the course. Parkland rough is usually heavier than links because of the difference types of grass and soil but there are always exceptions. I played Princes which is next to Royal St Georges's and is where they have the qualifiers for the Open, about 3 years ago, fantastic course. But 6 foot off the fairway and you are praying you find the ball let alone be able to hit it 50 or 60 yards up the fairway with a wedge. I did jar my wrist a bit on one lie, I couldn't even see the ball when addressing it lol. This game has tall grass but heavy rough lies, would love to see lies in grass like that about 15 to 20% and be unplayable with anything but a short iron or wedge. |

Better visuals always are a trade off with frame rates on console PC’s with better processors and graphics cards can pretty much negate that. I’m playing CoD on my Xbox right now and it runs supposedly at a constant 60fps I can’t prove it because I’ve not got the tools to do that but we’re playing PC players that can run the game at 150+fps.
That’s the game I bought my GameSir for I run it at 500hz which makes it more responsive I’ve tried it at 1000hz but the jury is still out if it’s actually much better. I’ve tried the GameSir at those frequencies on PGA 2K23 but find on short putts I can’t push the stick forward to complete the stroke, on longer putts or normal shots it seems to work ok. I wouldn’t know if it would pass the API or not as I’ve not used it on TGCTOURS.

Does anyone know is this GameSir controller ‘better’ than a Wolverine Razer on the Xbox ?? Hey man haven’t seen you on in a while. Hammers has switched to it. He says it’s more forgiving on swingplane but needs a slightly slower swing for perfect tempo. I’m considering it myself if it’s discounted in Black Friday. |

I wouldn’t say it’s better than a wolverine for this golf game, I have tried it a number of times and I’ve found it totally different to Hammers. I find it harder to hit swing plane consistently and yes tempo needs to be slightly slower. I was more interested in seeing how it would play at 500mhz would it give me more polling points in the swing, possibly it does I can’t be sure but short putts become an issues over the standard 250hz. Anything under four or five feet and your trying not to overhit the putt it just won’t let you get the putter to the ball at 500hz but it’s fine at 250. |

Hey mate, I’ve recently moved and busier on the home front so have not played the game for about 6weeks now. Keen to get back on board though. Cheers !! |

There’s no magical controller that’s going to level the playing field between Xbox and PC/PS wolverine and the G7 are pretty good and probably some other controllers I’ve not used. From experiments I’ve tried it seems like the game was specifically designed on Xbox to use the 125hz controllers the fact that a one running at 250hz works is just luck I think once you go past that to 500 and above they don’t work as well especially on the short shots like a short putt. You can pull the stick back ok but you have to hammer the stick forward to complete the stroke.

The V2 really made my putting worse. Swing plane and patt path are tough on legend. I do struggle more with tempo on the G7 as it requires a slower tempo. But my putting is so much better again and as it is the strongest part of my game I don't want to be hampered with push and pulls when my read is good. Anyone interested in the G7 should go for the SE edition as that has hall effect sticks and buttons. |

I remember reading somewhere that Xbox has problems with 500Hz on 3rd party controllers.Your problem on Xbox is not the game more likely a Microsoft firmware issue with higher polling rates. Tbh there is no real big noticeable difference between 250hz and 500hz in this game. I agree about controllers find one that suits you and passes TGCTours monitoring and you are good to go. |

I’m using the G7 SE playing CoD @ 500hz and it’s working great reduces the latency from the controller to around 4ms, I’ve tried it at 1000hz which gives 1ms latency and though it still works I’m not sure if it’s giving me the benefit with latency so I prefer not to use it. I’ve also played FIFA with it at 500hz and that seems to work ok as well. I’ve heard that Microsoft asked GameSir to remove the higher frequencies from their profiles on the Xbox side but they haven’t, you can go into the app on PC and remove them but not on the Xbox app. I’m not feeling the stiffer sticks on the G7 but that could be a personal thing but I do feel the difference in tempo, what I do is calibrate my swing with the G7 then use my Wolverine to play. What that does is give me lots of slows but I compensate for that by pulling the aim marker back by ten yards or more works for me. |

Are you using it on a 500hz profile or just standard out the box at 250hz that’s what makes the difference for me. I’ve never played an extended period on 2K23 with the G7 I think I could get used to it but at the minute my wolverine is working fine so I don’t have a need to. |

I am actually using 500hz but started with 250hz. Tbh as I am using a beefy graphic card and hitting mostly my capped 117 FPS for most courses my latency is pretty low already. On consoles the game caps at 60hz with VSync which in itself causes latency.I have tried Xbox and there is a slight delay in the swing that isn't there on my PC even with 250hz polling rate. |

For sure this will not be an early purchase for me. I really don't see what they can improve on enough if they keep the same game engine. I know there are newer improved versions of Unity but I don't see them spending any real money on a niche sport. Remember EA failed to deliver there is no competition to be concerned with. I'm waiting.

I wish they will have a great offline career mode.Keep what they have and add a career mode that you start as an amateur.And work your way up.With many tours, the Asian,PGA,Australian tours, and mini tours.
A career mode that I will can play at my own pace.And never have to even worry about online society play again

I'm waiting. Agree.I will wait at least a half of year or more.Watch all the reviews.Than determine if it is worth it.If the game is a 2k23 clone…..than count me out |
