Try three-click method. Make sure swing timing is on in the settings, because that's what we use in the society. And you don't want to get used to one way and have it all fall apart when you play in our events.

Swing stick with timing off is too easy. Swing stick with timing on is too hard. So I switched to three-click.

There is a practice range where you can go and ht balls until you've got the hang of it. There's also a calibration mode but I'm not sure what it does.

Under Controls, Swing Input.


I use a controller, and three-click is hold A to set the power, then you release and click at the top to set the swing path, and again at the bottom of the circular meter to set club face. It can be done with the mouse too.


Have a look at the archetypes as well, as these have some bearing on your strengths and weaknesses. I use Sculptor personally as it gives me the best control over my ball flight. But try them all and find which one suits you best.

I would also advise to wait until next week's event to join. The current course is Copperhead and there are frankly some pin positions, which combined with the slope and green speed could feel unfair. Not a great event to start off with.

Could not find it and when I press A may person in game turns to the left.

I have learned how to swing the club, however I suck in putting have played 5 holes and are on + 6

Now I'm playing some hours every day and next week I'll try to find the mp section in the game.

Haha, sorry, the A was the button on the controller, I didn't write it clearly I guess. If using mouse and keyboard you will need to use whatever it right for that control method.


I use a cheap USB X Box controller knock off

I play (in Golf+) ~15-20 over par per 18 hole course all the time! When - on average - I do not need more than one stroke additional to the par for a hole, and keep that average over the whole round of 18, i consider it a good round. A par played makes me happy, a birdie makes me celebrating already. Never had an eagle so far.



But then, in the game's world ranking I am currently on rank 195465 with a handicap of 15.788

I finished the course with + 17 over par.

Now I have to figure out where the multi player is.
