Re: No real ball spin on tour settings
It's all about specs in this game. In the old TW game, it was about upgrading clubs and balls. In this game, it's upgrading specs on clubs and balls. I've got lots of natural spin now.

I personally never quite figured out how the spin works in this game.
I have had hit the same wedge on consecutive holes into greens... where it would land on a downward slope and spin 20 feet back up a hill. Then on the next hole hit into a slope one hop and stop.
You would think delofting the club would flight the ball lower reducing spin... but apparently not in this game. Or maybe EA took into account that the harder you swing the club (ie. Clubhead speed) would generate more spin. But I cannot say that has been my experience...
Those that created the game I don't think have an understanding of the physics and nuances of golf. They coded a pretty arcade game for the general public.
We are 7 months into things now and I think they have made things pretty clear.
Those of us that expecting a more realistic simulation were TRICKED... the rest you have been TREATED with some costumes for Halloween.
