Post from admin comment on the announcement page: "Post how you are doing with the swing percentage once you get the update. Remember, it is no longer tied to the frame rate so it will no longer assume you wanted to get 100%. You will need the proper tempo and swing to achieve 100%. I am seeing some twitter posts saying they can't get 100% anymore. That is where the whole granular swing mechanic comes into play. You actually need to make the proper swing now, the game will not assume you meant to hit 100%."

I had a couple under 100 but now I'm just swinging it harder and seem to be getting it fine. I also found that swinging harder helped. What is really difficult is that now you cannot take the club back slowly. This is an issue for me when chipping/flopping. Essentially the game wants you to decelerate your swing? I don't know many golfers in real life that are effective with this method. Yeah the chipping and flopping, going to make it harder I think.

Yeah I think I'm okay now. Just one fluid swing, 100% the last 10 shots.

This is weird, I'm not hooking the ball as much. Before, if it was just a bit off center I was hooking it. Now I get few straight shots, some hooks and even some slices. Weird man, of course I always adjusted for those hooks now I have to make new adjustments. Hmm, practice - practice - practice.

Can we all admit that this update broke something and needs to be fixed quickly. Swinging harder is not an option, less than 100% on almost every swing is unacceptable, oh and yes chipping has become unresponsive at times. Love the game but can't enjoy like this.

Wow, basically impossible to get 100% for me on PS4, and i tried various methods. Oddly though most of my shots were almost perfectly straight, but i hit one 100% out of 20 shots. PC seems better.
This is going to cause some problems i fear

I seem to be getting 98-100 percent on all my shots now. A little less predictable on my 25-55 yard shots. Maybe post on HB forum though Keith seems to be hitting okay.

I think I figured it out myself, at least with my swing. No pause..just one fluid motion. What works for me is this: - you have to look at the screen (some people got used to not doing that) - you start your downswing as soon as the backswing animation completes [the pause is now gone] - I would describe it as you 'catch' your backswing with your downswing

At least I know if I'm in-between clubs I can just pause at the top for a 92-94 percent swing..

I spent hours the other night grooving the perfect repeatable swing, and now they go and change it? Unbelievable.

I spent hours practicing to improve my putting and tighten up my swing motion. I finished 2nd in CC-A last week and hopefully another 2nd using my Web exemption this week. So far, after the update, I'm worse now than I've ever been. I guess I'll need tons of practice before my Open Championship rounds.

What reason did the have for changing the swing mechanics it wasn't broke?. Now your saying that after 18 months of game time i have to re-learn how to swing club for 100% distance

what seems to be the problem? no problem hitting 100%. I had one 91% but that was a really bad swing.

Has anyone had this problem yet since update , when attempting to chip from the fringe the club will not move at times?
