That is a great question...

You would think that the label PRO would mean you need a competent level of skill to produce a good score in the game.

My expectations (obviously my personal opinion, no one needs to agree), are that BEGINNER  would have all the aids enabled. A sandbox for those that need it to learn the intricacies of the game, how wind affects ball flight, how much the green breaks... etc.

AMATUER, PROAM, PRO, etc... would disable all the aids... but the sensitivity to the swing input would gradually increase as you go up levels in play.

And finally SIM, you turn off everything.

I'm also not adversed to slowly removing the aids as the difficulty levels increase, but by PRO... all the aids should be disabled for the presets.

As you say... this game is far to easy. Currently they need another 2 or 3 higher difficulty settings. The current PRO setting should be called AMATEUR with the way the preset is configured and high difficulty it provides.

"Pro" in the context as descirbed by you is just a level for the 2nd easiest difficult level - and this is just a case of making them all sound "good" (as many games do).

As we have 

- Arcade
- Pro
- Tour
- Sim

and they're just labels for different levels of difficulty, we might as well translate them as 

- Beginner
- Normal
- Hard
- Nightmare

or whatever labelling we'd like. 


However i think the OP refers to the AI not being tough enough - which is different a different "Pro" --> Professional golfers as represented in the game.

I play on default ai difficulty in career (with custom game difficulty) and that's easy by now, i'd agree, but i don't know how effective the difficulty slider is - i read contradicting things about it many claiming it's completely broken (again, i can't deny or confirm).
