Product: EA SPORTS PGA TOURPlatform:Xbox Series XSummarize your bug The ball you select in your golfer setup does not appear correctly when playing the game. Example: In my golfer setup I have gone in and selected the Titleist Golf Ball in my equipment. I have saved it to my settings. When I go in and play it always shows the default EA ball when I hit and it rolls. I have also tried selecting a different ball, the Masters Logo ball and it does the same thing. How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Select a ball other than the default and then go play a game.What happens when the bug occurs? No issues other than cosmetic. But since you went to the trouble of being able to win and select different ball types, colors, logos. I would assume you want them to show when actually playing the game. What do you expect to see? The correct ball I have chosen in setting to show when I use my golfer and play the game. No additional Info.

@CMoses512 I’m seeing the same problem. On the hud where it shows the spin it shows the default EA ball. However on xbox I can’t see a way to zoom in on the actual ball to see if it’s also just the default EA ball.

I am using the correct bag with the Titleist Ball. I even made sure all the bags had the Titleist ball. When playing it still shows the EA ball in the HUD.

@StormRaging I don't think there is anyway to zoom in on the ball. I was referring to the HUD showing the ball incorrectly.

I have the same issue in career mode. I earned the tittleist ball and just to make sure I equipped it with all my bags. Never shows up, just EA ball.

Last night I tried playing wit the EA red ball and that definitely showed up on the course but the white ball in the HUD remained unchanged. It might be that this is the expected behaviour but it would be a nice visual improvement for the ball in the HUD to match if it is.

I suspect you are but just to check: are you definitely using the same golf bag as the one in which you've set your chosen ball?

I also had this problem. It also wouldn't save my selected bag. It kept going back to the default bag as well. After several attempts, it finally saved my bag, ball and ball marker. I had to put the one selected bag, ball and ball marker in all bags to make it work. And even doing that took several tries.

@Ultrasonic_77 seems that this is the way they may have designed it. Just seems odd then to even have different balls when the majority of them you would only even see the change in the hud.

I agree, this is strangely annoying for me. As we can't really see the ball in play there was no real incentive to change it if the only decent view we get is the EA one in the HUD!
