Guys please, revert. This update on putting is terrible. Additionally, the lip-outs are terrible. I've got 100 matches under my belt on this IP to learn the game and just getting a handle on it. I've played Amateur and Pro settings on TW since 2006, I'm not a new player.

It’s not WORTH anything to be fair.
Why are you so hell bent on defending this? I’m curious how long you’ve played the TW franchise and what settings you currently play?
I've not been defending anything. Please have a look back at what I've actually said.

Again, how long have you played the franchise and what settings do you currently play?

This has absolutely zero relevance to anything I've posted in this thread but for transparency I've played previous EA golf games relatively little and I mostly play the current game on Tour settings. I'm an OK player but not remotely a top one. Do please read back through what I've actually said in recent posts though as you're clearly totally misunderstanding me. My number one role here is to try to help get issues with the game fixed and I've been asking questions to try to achieve this.
@martblokeLet’s be realistic here you’re saying that 0.1% overswing is too hard on a 10ft putt that it shouldn’t go in
A 10ft putt aimed 0.1% would equate to you aiming the marker at 10.1ft which you can’t even do. Heck the only way you could theoretically hit a 10ft putt too hard aka 11ft would be if it was 10%
Forgive me I didn’t realise In real life golfers could be so precise to be aiming putts within 0.1% 🤣
And yes experience in golf games does make a difference. It’s how a lot of the top players have kept at a top level
@agentputt thanks for the examples. This thread is probably being monitored anyway but I'll flag this behind the scenes to be sure it's not missed.

It has 100% relevance. You’re a Tour player criticizing complaints from people playing Pro and Arcade. You’re literally a shill and should just stop defending something you don’t know anything about or lack extreme in-depth experience on. I’m not misunderstanding anything, I’m literally a master of language courtesy of Middlebury College top of my class. Stop bullying me with the I don’t understand you bits. You’re not even a moderator. Stop derailing the thread please.

@JGWentworthsQuite frankly, how long anyone has played the franchise is completely irrelevant. This is the game in question so whether anyone has played TW08, TW13, or any other means very little.
If you are blowing passed the hole as you say, and hitting a perfect/perfect or just a 0.1% overswing, then it's clear as day an issue with marker placement. Whether that's because things have changed with power since the update or not, you clearly need to adapt and set the marker shorter.
Now if you were to set up 1 shot and show a perfect/perfect putt goes the hole distance (aim to stop next to it) and then a slight overswing of 0.1% or close to for the exact same set up shot then goes blasting passed that spot instead of just passed it, then yeah I'd agree there's an issue. However, you are giving no context at all of the issue you speak of just that perfect/perfect and 0.1% overswing is going flying passed the hole. Without knowing if you've set the marker adequately or not, then your comments mean nothing I'm afraid. Need to evidence the issues especially if you want EA to look into it and fix it.
Of course it’s matters, you’re just being argumentative, unreasonable, and disruptive.
Someone new to video game golf or the franchise has ZERO legs to stand on. Are you joking right now lmao? You’re just being a troll with this sort or reply.
My chevron is perfectly placed, end of story. All EA needs to do is REVERT the adjustments to ball logic when putting, fixed, done, end. Lower the mishit factor and lower the chance for lip outs by 85%.
Currently 30 lip outs and 2 lip ins. It’s BROKEN.
@agentputt could you just clarify what difficulty settings you've got concerns with? I know you play (very well) on all difficulties and I'm guessing it's all of them?
