I'm pretty sure there are some cheaters on Xbox as well. Even on arcade mode with the amount of randomness some of the scores are near impossible to shoot. The last dunes tournament had a few driveable par 4s, but there was a lot of tailwind and you had a pretty small landing area. With the randomness of the drive direction and the tailwind just getting one ball to stop on the green is a great shot. To replicate that a few times plus get another hole out all in the same round seems pretty unattainable. If it was all skill based then i could see it, but even with almost max drive accuracy, legend driver spec, legend ball spec my driver landing area is pretty large. Missing by a yard or 2 could be the difference between hitting the green or not. Hitting like 3-4 miracle shots in one round seems a bit much. Even if you know the game perfectly you just can not fully account for the randomness of some shots
What sort of scores were they? I know the arcade mode is free to enter and unlimited tries. If the wind stays the same each time you play it there will be people who literally play it over and over searching for that perfect score, whilst writing down where best to land for each hole, club selection etc.
I hit 17 under par on that New Zealand course last night playing career on tour mode, and from past experience im still thinking its 3/4 shots short of winning an 18 hole tourney. I finally have some free coins now so going to enter the tour mode tourney tonight and see how i do. Ive not even monitored the type of score that is winning it so will take a look tonight. As long the wind stays below about 12mph im pretty confident of getting an under par chance on every hole.
