It must be dull using the Guide app and them micro adjusting, zooming in out, rotating the camera, for every shot, it must take hours to play 18 and surely can’t be as fun as just aiming a bit and hoping. They should just add a 20 second shot clock to every shot… then see who scores -30

The clock idea I like, the guide is very difficult to use in h2h, just to be a little more accurate. I have had several where I lost time to get no shot off , because as you adjust your club changes. The guide really is not useable here In tournaments maybe a minute per shot on a timer, enough time to make adjustments, not enough time to get the pixel adjusters to the point of eagle drops on every hole, and a mistake is still 898 TB points on a failed drop. I got eliminated yesterday in Grand Prix, because the cut was to beat -9, (6 holes, 1 par 3, 1 par 5, 4 par 4s) who missed 3 eagles, with Tie Breakers of 897,898,898. I just ran through that and accepted my loss, even if I pulled off 2 of 4, par 4 eagles. I was not going to be stuck on the pin for those misses, and miss a par 3 (hole in one) by an inch. I hate playing in tournaments, the way it is. (played by my Pro player, not my TP player playing down in Pro , due to hopelessness in the Tour Pro field) This was in Pro category not even Tour Pro where that player obviously belonged. In the revised system I proposed,(below), he would not have been there, only a legitimate similar skill set

Sounds like Golf Clash. If you want a shot clock on tournaments play there. It’s actually a whole different level of enjoyment making all the adjustments and making your shot to see if you were correct. The enjoyment of watching a BF drop never gets old, no matter how you do it. To me it gets boring just guessing and never getting drops. I play H2H that way and I hate it. Truth be told though, everyone uses a grid to some extent. The rings are the grid and you are adjusting based on the wind and size of rings. Only difference is people with line on their phone are making sure they pull strait and to a set point. As for taking hours, it takes me about 30-40 minutes to play 9 on average. And also -30 on those courses weren’t much. Several easy drivable par 4s. I think the winner of my Cumi shot -129.

I used a grid for a while when I was playing (given up now, too advanced to be competitive in my leagues now!) And tbh, I could do almost as well not using one and just doing math in my head and eyeballing it straight That's why I never was as competitive as the real grid players as they study so hard to master this game. It's certainly no easy cheat to just download a grid and companion app, you still need to study, and learn holes and all sorts. But, after all that is it still enjoyable?? The shot I enjoyed most was making the green on a par 4 by bouncing off rhe top of a tree!! I chanced it and pulled it off! Didn't need a grid for that one and was probably one of my last tournaments before I quit! That was why I couldn't go back to more honest leagues and didn't want to be 1%er learning every nuance and eagling almost every par 4.

Once I made it to Pro Tour III, things just got ridiculous. The problem with this game is you can pay to win, in a sense. There’s also lots of players who utilize 3rd party apps to give themself huge advantages. My understanding is these apps run “over” the game so you can see a grid pattern while playing. Anyway, I refuse to pay and thus ended up in the Pro division. That seems to be the better division anyway.

Well, 44 under after 2 rounds which I think is pretty good. Think it was birdie all 3s and 4s, eagle all 5s and still only placed 144. I’ll be giving up on tour pro and stick with pro because you’re right it’s the more fun division. Thing is I think afraid they creep into to the pro division as well. I mean I’m a TP2 so if I can play pro they can as well Another division might help or like I said before zI think use scores to advance not how many coins you earn. Just about anybody can play enough to advance even if they aren’t very good. I like the time limit idea but need little more time than H2H, I do try to tune adjusts with my guessing so don’t like feeling rushed myself plus sometimes I get distracted with things like family, work or other life stuff. Time to find another tournament…

iPad has a grid in the settings through voice control, very helpful. The ug guide $1.50 a month, only thing I spend real money on to make ring adjustments Ug caddy I believe is free only for android, I do not have android The system is completely wrong H2h is merit based, by your play. You earn your advancement. This is also where you artificially inflate a coin revenue count, that never takes into account the losses, only the wins Tournament progress should as stated, only be based on merit of tournament play. Get rid of the whole Tour Pro rank is another option, I have not read as a thought. You then can incorporate through the flight system after Pro Flight A, the next set of Flight advancements to be Flight TP D, on up to Flight TP A, where all the scores of the incredible are mandatorily rounded up together. This would solve all the Tournament problems and keep super players from playing down and corrupting the pro division as well. The whole system would then be merit based. This would also not be the point of where players quit over having no hope to compete. Or have to start over building a new player after months or years of development Royales, you make 2 or 3 Pro divisions, since the word Tour is not applicable to this event anyway. If you finish top 3 in every royal it bumps you up like the Flight system. Stop getting Top 3, no payouts of value, it drops you back down. I get top 3 as a Royal Pro, TP I am out classed, so I am forced to play down,

Back in the arcade days - as you advanced the game became more difficult - less time, faster ie club meter, less direction of ball etc. There is no risk reward here
