I make a number of putts from the fringe but also a fair number of chip ins. Just factor in what the fringe is telling you and putt like you are on the green.

Has anyone else noticed/had trouble with skins, where every now and then a skin that a player won doesn't get added to their total? Haven't seen anybody address it and it kinda screws an entire round of skins when one player birdies and wins the skin but then the next tee loads and the hole is played as the skin carried over.

I picked this up for $16 as well as live 16 for $16, both great prices for great games.

Bought this game a few months ago... Now it's uninstalled and I'm playing TGC... Best golf game out there and it's not even close.

I'm not sure how this pertains to Rory McIlroy, outside of an attempt to troll the community for the game.

Only warning - please be a bit more constructive.

My bad, I didn't mean to come across as a troll. You're right, my comment had no constructive value!

Glad I decided to pick this up on sale. The golf itself in the game was never the problem, it was everything else. Hopefully they continue to drop courses because I'm enjoying it. Nice to see they axed the dumb celebrations too. Doing the sprinkler after hitting every other putt was ridiculous.

Let me try to explain: The shot setup and preparation is fine, then comes the swing, which seems to require a relatively narrow range of swing speeds, or it freezes and restarts, or moves in spurts that seem like something happening with an old style film. Then as the ball is finding its way to its destination, it frequently comes to a premature, abrupt stop, that 'film sequence' ends and an unnecessarily long cutaway view film clip of your golfer's post shot movements (thankfully not the ridiculous dances of the launch version) are shown.

I come away thinking I've just watched a three part film (any part of which looks great in screen shots), instead of vicariously living out an experience in which I was a free flowing element in an environment that existed to allow it to happen in its own terms. I don't know, it's tough to explain...
Not really...you did a great job. I feel exactly the same way when I play any of EA's golf games. Really - you described it to a "t".

Off-topic, but this is such a good description I have to add that I also feel this way with "FIFA" - like what's happening is essentially pre-determined. But wrong forum for that....

Curious, Onlooker - have you tried 3-click?
