Unreasonable Challenges
Notably the EA flop challenge in Around the green. Make one flop. Dumb. I spent an hour trying to do this and it's just too unpredictable, which is characteristic of flop shots. Challenges that f...
I noticed that some of the challenges are set up for a specific skill set. Like the Flop challenge to make one flop. And BTW, a High Flop doesn't count as a Flop.
Once I put 10/10 in Accuracy for Driving, Approach or Around the Green, most of the challenges became much easier to complete. This will make the shaded landing area the size of a teacup for the chip shot and greatly improve your control over where it will land with spin when you increase the Around The Green's skills. Of course, you don't need all three at 10, just the specific shot type you are trying to make for the challenge. Also, having more control or recovery to increase your special shot skills to gold can benefit some of the challenges. A few will give you a player with the skillset needed to complete.
So, it may just be you are built for your regular play style, but the challenges require more focused skill sets. It's pretty easy to un-train and re-train your skills, but can become expensive in vc if you are constantly moving the points around.
And yea, I spent an hour or more High Flopping it until I made it, only to find out those don't count for the challenge star. So I spent another few hours flopping it. Once I increased Around the Green's Accuracy, Control, and Recovery, I made it in under 30mins.
