You have always been to disable the swing timing... and on the lower skill levels the swing path allowance is quite wide.

I still find that the speed of the swing in 2K23 is far too fast, especially for partial swings, pitches and chips. If they returned to the swing that was in 2K2019 things would be much better.

Something just feels different when I swing. When I originally played 2K23, all my shots biased towards the right after second patch. When I played again after a long time, I do not see my shots biased towards the right. Something must have been fixed. Maybe the shot timing being off did not work originally. The fix just made that game more fun.

@PalomaMarvel24I know this is an EA forum but does 2K23 have something similar to EA Golf's daily tournaments? That's the one thing I really like for EA golf over 2k23 unless I am unable to find that mode or what it's called in 2k23.

I think they are the societies, but I don’t play that mode in 2k23. Big difference with the EA PGA Tour and 2K23 is the store. More selection in 2K23 and I don’t have to log in every day to get specs for 2K23. Career mode is where I get my stuff and I don’t need to do daily tournaments. In EA PGA Tour, I need Tournaments, Career Mode, and in the past Daily Quest to get specs. I just played 2K23 last night for the first time since November of last year.

EA Golf, the swing is so slow and clunky. But now after watching youtube videos on the different type of swings Im use to it. I still prefer 2K23's though.

That was one big hurdle that I had to get over when I finally started enjoying EA Golf. I had 2K in my head while trying to play EA Golf. Once I dedicated myself to learning EA GOLF without any influence from 2K, then I really bought into the game and was preforming well.

I also played 2K21. Their swing mechanism is flawless. The same goes with TW14. I love both of those games. 2K23 somehow had the swing issue fixed and is smooth like 2K21.

After playing 4 months with EA PGA Tour, the swing got slower and clunkier after each update. I ended up using 3-click to avoid the clunkiness. But there are physics issues with EA PGA Tour that are so difficult to overlook and overcome. I purchased 2K23 again and I am enjoying the fixed swing mechanics. One thing that is possible to do in 2K23 is hit the green with a long approach shot using a 3 or 4 iron. In EA PGA Tour that shot is not possible since ball will go miles deep like Aaron Judge hit a home run.
