Now if you would print somewhere a list of instructions to explain just how these rewards from the Pro Pass can be utilized when you already have your golfers maxed out at 50 points each (I have two) it would be appreciated ... thanks.

The XP are obviously useless just as the XP earned in the rest of the game are. Everything else (which is the overwhelming majority) are just as useful to those of at level 50 as they are to anyone else.

For me pretty much the single appeal of pro pass is the new top iron spec.

    For myself I didn't see the value in the Pro Pass... once I maxed out my character there was nothing for me to grind for.

    Other than the odd upgrade in a new spec. Which by the way were/are really slow in coming out. 

    Everything in the Pro Pass was already easily accessible through Challenges or Tournaments and the Store. I don't see the need for the Pro Pass... other than it was a feature they had always planned to incorporate into the game. Other than a source of revenue for EA I don't see the revelance of it.

    To be honest once I maxed out, and purchased a few articles of clothing, some equipment for my character I stopped playing Challenges and Tournaments.

    I resorted back to a stock player to retain some challenge in the game. Then I pretty much stopped playing all together. Except with my group of friends.

    If the equipment had attributes and there was a driving range, I could see myself testing to find my perfect setup and creating a yardage book for my distances. I actually did this for 2K... I play without an aiming reticule in 2K so yardages were controlled basically with loft. And with elevation and lie data turned off it made for a much more random experience.

  • Sad as it may be, right now I'm playing the game more than I have for ages specifically because pro pass has been added, as I want to make sure I get the new top iron spec. It may or may not end up in the store but in case it doesn't it's given me something new to aim for. I'm also having fun trying to get a bit more competitive online too.

    I might be wrong.. but I was actually going to say I saw it in the store the Pro Pass was released. Either way the game has gotten to a point I didn't think I needed any better specs. To enjoy? The game.

    But I understand where you are coming from. I saw on Facebbok someone has already completed the Pro Pass. That was short lived.

  • Hey guys and gals, this is at least a good discussion. However ... no one has answered my questions. I have all the best club set ups that I patiently added but I now have these Pro Pass Tokens being rewarded to me and have no idea how to utilize them or where they are stored after being rewarded.

    Can any one explain this little puzzle? 🙂

    You go to the Pro Pass section and claim each reward level that has been unlocked. The points aren't 'stored'. If you haven't done this you don't currently have the top iron spec.

    @Ultrasonic_77Thanks Ultra. This I know. What I am asking is what do I do with the 100's and 100's of awarded tokens that I still get after reaching 70 and claiming them all? I just posted a suggestion in a reply to Elf asking for inclusion in the next update of having each new created player being able to rise up the Pro Pass chain and have those claims added to that player only. I also liked his idea of a driving range and a putting green. All acquired tokens that are claimed after you reach 70 are useless. All bought Specs with both tickets and those yellow swing things (lol) apply to all your created players. None of the rewards from Pro Pass do.

    @LemonDropKid From what I understand you get to collect VC after you have reached level 70 on the Pro Pass.

    Just a slight correction... I was hoping for a Driving Range and Short Game area... which would not only include a putting green, but sand trap and chipping area. Where you can drop a ball and hit as many shots from that spot for as long as you like.

    @ELF014I completed the Pro Pass in the first week and a half it came out Elf.

    Honestly I have stopped playing both games. EA kind of crushed my soul.

    I did go back a play a few rounds of 2K23 with friends the last few nights and the golf felt much more realistic.

    I pretty confident the amount we play will drop-off... and we will be bouncing between games. The consensus in my group seems to suggest they would rather play 2K23.
