If you do pick it up and would like some multiplayer action, hit us up.

Our Society is called Duck Hook Divot Diggers Club, can search for it in the game.

We play one four-round tournament per week, and I switch the course and conditions each time. Societies allow us to compete against one another, but at your own pace. We don't have to meet up, you just play the event and the other scores show on the leaderboard. You can add the ghosts of anyone who has already played that round if you like to have some company and see how I stuck it in the lake on 15.

You have all week to finish and can stop and resume as needed. It's a lot of fun, and very friendly and casual. Recently there have just been a couple of us playing as most guys have been too busy. We'd love to have you guys join us.

Settings are pretty casual too. And 2K23 added a three-click swing in addition to the swing stick method. So it's accessible for all.

I've put it on my wish list-Are going to wait some month to see if there's any price reduction on the game. Usually there use to be now and then.

It's on sale often, PGA Tour 2K23. If you ever pick it up, give Duck Hook Divot Diggers a look!

I certainly will It's fun to play against others.

Got a crazy idea-If we could get more Subsimmers to download this game we could have a Subsim tournament.

I'll be the first to sign up. It's easy, and fun. I'll be happy to host it if needed.

We could play St Andrews in a gale.

Actually, we wouldn't need to have any special event, although we could, but I have a tournament every week and you are all free to join. Just drop me a line or post here and you're in. Current event ends Tuesday.

I dont need a damn gale to terribly push my drive to the right side anyway, I do it all the time even without a gale and even when sleepwalking...

Pilots call it a barrel roll. I call it the corkscrew manouver. It sucks. LOL

Threadfin · 02-03-24, 03:41 PM

Yeah Skybird, that's it. That sort of ball flight would bore right through the wind

Corkscrew drive in to a stiff wind sounds perfect.

It's on sale now-75% off

No one from here has joined us. With the game on sale the timing's never been better. New event starts Tuesday. It's free to join, you can come and go as you please, skip events if you want.

Settings are fairly forgiving, much of it is set as client-side so your personal preferences apply. A few settings are locked to make it a level playing field, but there's quite a bit of latitude too, so players of all skill levels can get their groove on.

There's a swing stick method and for 23 they have added a three-click swing method that is easier when swing timing is set to on, which it is in most societies, including ours.

I bought the game today and have tried to exercise the swing..without any luck so far. The ball only fly 10 meters or so.

Don't know what I'm doing wrong though. Thinking of skipping it and go directly to carrier.

When I get to know the game a bit more I'm going to join your
"Duck Hook Divot Diggers Club" club.

Try three-click method. Make sure swing timing is on in the settings, because that's what we use in the society. And you don't want to get used to one way and have it all fall apart when you play in our events.

Swing stick with timing off is too easy. Swing stick with timing on is too hard. So I switched to three-click.

There is a practice range where you can go and ht balls until you've got the hang of it. There's also a calibration mode but I'm not sure what it does.

We have been using this thread for our society in case it might come in handy, just skip to the end
