Quests

Just do it in Quick Play. Easy settings on Top of the Rock full 9 and aim for greenside bunkers. Soon finish them

Doing it in quick play is a great idea because you pick one hole to make sand save. 

Just don't expect to complete the Top Of the Rock mastery quest in the process.  I've still not received the "Get 5 Par Saves" star in chapter 1 despite completing it successfully at least a dozen times.

Quick Play is a good way to do these very quickly.  That said, I tend to do these using the daily free 4 hole tournament.  Why?  Because then I still get pro pass currency for the holes I complete, and for some silly reason, quick play doesn't provide this.  Just something to consider if you are trying to maximize your time and rewards.

The last time I played was the day before the release of Madden. I did not realize how the game changed after Update 7.0. It has been the trend since Update 3.0 where gameplay is absolutely different after each update. One of the reasons I quit playing this game. It sux relearning game after each update.

People are in this thread giving their best ideas to complete the sand saves quest. At the end of the day we are all aiming at bunkers to complete the quest no matter how easy it might be. Making sand saves and par saves a part of daily quests is idiotic. It’s one thing if it was 1 sand save or 1 par save but when you have many it is just wasting our time.

force me to make a certain amount of birdies or eagles or hit a certain amount of fairways. Don’t force me to aim at a bunker because it’s stupid.

You hit this one out of the ballpark. I think making a set amount of birdies or eagles is the way to go instead of sand saves.

I am playing more NBA 2K24 and their challenges are making a set number of points, dunks, threes, blocks and assists. An analogy of the sand save quest in NBA 2K24 would be to make as many bricks or turnovers as possible. The sand save type of quest is totally moronic because it rewards making bad shots.

I found a way to get them done by going to bunkers on long par 5, and making the save for birdie from there. At least it looks more like golf.

The approach you outlined from NBA 2k4 is how it should be done. Reward good play, don’t force someone to play poorly to get something. 

I can’t get over the fact that we are aiming at bunkers to clear quests. It is seriously one of the stupidest reward schemes I’ve seen on a golf game.
