Nice one, definitely helped me. Question though: when I get rewards from online tournaments, the screen gets stuck in the main screen and I have to restart the game to open rewards. Is that a glitch, do you have the same?
Just another note: I got the Matsuyama Iron spec. The difference is unreal. All of sudden you can hit decent iron shots. Without the specs the game is incredibly difficult
Any chance you can comment the stats on this spec? I'm looking at Jordan Speith's Iron Spec in the shop (63 power, 73 accuracy, 79 control and 80 recovery) but I'll wait for Matsuyama's if his is superior.
Great video, thanks ! One question though: you talk about the second type of 'points' out of the four displayed top right - in other words, the lime green hexagon, skills points. I've read advice about using these carefully and I think I've done that: gone for approach, recovery and short game skills rather than brute force power to begin with. However, I've only got 12 of those left now which doesn't get me a lot, and I'm wondering: what's the best way to get more of them (assuming I can ...) ?
Sorry read it wrong. Lime green hexagon are skill points. You max out at level 50. Every time you level up you get skill points. Once you hit 50 you can't earn anymore
I was messing with the equipment affixes yesterday and it seems very buggy - and I can see it happening to you too. Before adding the affix, your 3i showed 229y. After adding it, ON the affix page it showed 235, but when you returned to the main page, it still shows 229. I've seen clubs change order on the list at right. I had to leave the equipment tab and come back to get it to show again. In fact, this equipment page is so flakey I just un-equipped everything and will wait for some patch to clean it up.
We need a putting tutorial video bro. This putting stroke is truly awful, could just be me, but it seems wildly inconsistent. If I can't get a handle on it soon I'll be back to 2k for good, most likely.
7:16 I think they patched that so you don’t have to do it one by one, you can equip it to all your irons. Pretty sure I was able to do that but not totally sure
Anyone know why my rewards stopped? I played career mode and won the Fed Ex Cup and didn't get anymore rewards for winning it and now even when I complete the challenges and earn more stars I still get no more rewards! They were going great until I won the Fed Ex Cup. is that the end of the rewards for me? Wow, So bummed! Lol
Well, Nevermind guys. I did finally get all of my rewards a day later and for some reason they were delayed but I did just open up 13 reward packs for all I got accomplished! Loving the new game and having fun...And getting better! Lol. Good luck to all and keep after it, Well worth it! Cheers
Any chance of doing a ball position video? Seems to me when the ball is above your feet the ball wants to go right (in real life it would want to hook) Opposite for ball below your feet…unless I’m tripping
Love you videos, have a quick question, I’m doing the challenges in the PGA Coaching section. I am up to the “advanced shot making- par 3’s where it says Get 1 birdie, par or better all 3holes and Earn all advanced GIR’S. I have achieved the first two even though I parred two holes and birdied another. I got the star Next to the get one birdie or better and the Star next to thePar or better all 3 holes I don’t know what it doesn’t give me the star next to the Earn all advanced GIRSs even though I did it. Does the word “Advanced” mean I have to do something in particular? Thanks for any help you can give me!
PGA coaching challenge section on ps5 is not rewarding any challenges, first challenge is driving to the fairway.. not getting any stars when I achieve the goals.. is anyone else experiencing rewards not being registered? Can’t learn this game when the coaching isn’t working, frustrating
I just picked the game back up and I know that specs are very important so my question is, would you recommend getting a good ball spec first and then go into certain clubs from there?
Hitting distance is driving me nuts. 118 to the pin from the fairway with a 5mph tailwind. I use my 54 wedge which has a distance of 119. I stop my backswing about 1/4 short of max and the ball falls short of the green and 27yds short of the pin. I hit the same shot with full backswing and the ball Flys the green. Anyone have any advice?
I wonder if your strategy has changed since EA changed the system from XP to this Pro Pass system. They messed with the existing XP system and go to what's essentially a "pay to play" model just like all their other games. Really EA $70 per copy for a buggy game isn't enough? Whoever would spend extra real-world money for these points just to get clothing items and effectively cheat at Pro Pass by "buying" another tier, has too much money or too few brain cells.
because I found the rough penalty in this game is not very great and you have to choose what you want to give up for skill points because you can't have everything
I leveled up my approach to where it looks like I have the different shot types like power approach but they aren't available when I go to play...I don't understand how to get the new shot types
I have unlocked the balances rare wood spec from winning the Korn Ferry Tour, but when I go into my wood specs to add it, it says I only have the common wood spec. Any idea?
@midKnightYT I was just talking about the club themselves you unlock. They are color coded too. Like I have a ping driver and it's purple. I have a ea driver and it's green. And I have a hammer head and it's blue. So those colors mean nothing? Just cosmetic?
Has there been a patch yet, I'm still playing on the trial debating. Ik the trial probably won't get any patches. On the trial I can't change swing settings.

Mate I'm having this trouble aswell. I play the first 18 of a tournament and it won't let me go to round 2 in any. It just keeps making me play round one hole 18 everytime. So I have to withdraw to move on. Driving me insane

Same to me. Close app and restart the game. Usually fixes it
Been doing challenges to unlock skill points.
Do a video on tempo

Thank you for this video!
They should add us to be able to upgrade our caddies for putting and short shots

Absolutely will. I am awaiting a patch first because they apparently have admitted a needed fix to the putting grid and breaks.
You can't read slope numbers?
Great video! Thank you!
Would love a beginner geared tutorial. Subscribed!
Things like how to read that putting line for instance. This works differently than in other golf games…
The putting grid is a disaster, putts going the opposite way to which ways it's showing lol
Definitely an issue and hopefully it gets patched
Thank you man!!
I hope that Matsuyama Iron spec comes back into the store rotation!

ur tournaments vid helped me i made 60 k yesterday !!
Happy to hear great success
I played that Augusta tournament like it was a dark souls boss haha those rewards were ridiculous.
All my approach shots are “fast” and bounce off the green and go 50 yards passed it. I have no clue what I’m doing wrong
this makes me feel better as I'm struggling with this too
Video coming soon
@@Ma_Kachada great!
Level up your control skills for approach. I was having the same problem.
Any chance of doing a ball position video? Seems to me when the ball is above your feet the ball wants to go right (in real life it would want to hook)
Opposite for ball below your feet…unless I’m tripping
I have had that happen as well. I think it needs to be fixed
thanks for the vid. the volume is kinda low tho
People be using facecam and then they look like this --> 😬

You have to shot shape
Hi. Ty for your tutorials, they are great. In my specs store I have DJ and Jordan Spieth driver, no Iron specs from Matsuyama. How is that?
Update came out and new items were put in
@@Ma_Kachada Ty but where can I get it? I play it on PC and on steam or EA I can not find any patch or update.
@@niceasmay you can't get it anymore. They replaced it with speith and other items.

It is glitched right now and the update took it away apparently
Same. Came here for this reason. Let me know if you find a solution please.
@midKnightYT there's an update that fixes this or the update messed it up?
Yeah I’m having this issue right now too
How do you make money in the game to buy items from the store ? I completed 6 rounds in career mode and didn't get any money from it.
Look at my free vc video
I just picked the game back up and I know that specs are very important so my question is, would you recommend getting a good ball spec first and then go into certain clubs from there?
clubs first
Thanks bud

If you add rare wedge accuracy will it help bump up the legendary specs?
From what I've seen, you can only have one spec on each club
Can you delete specs because it's going to get pretty cluttered eventually? Maybe they can make it so you can at least get some VC back.
Haven't tried yet.
Damn how did you get that much VC so quick? I want both Legendry's in the store right now and I only have enough for one.
Check my video on free vc
Why don't you use skill points on recovery?
because I found the rough penalty in this game is not very great and you have to choose what you want to give up for skill points because you can't have everything
I leveled up my approach to where it looks like I have the different shot types like power approach but they aren't available when I go to play...I don't understand how to get the new shot types
Skill points. If you have it high enough to get those shot types. Ignore the color on acreen,l because I noticed a glitch in it changing
I have unlocked the balances rare wood spec from winning the Korn Ferry Tour, but when I go into my wood specs to add it, it says I only have the common wood spec. Any idea?
Did you claim the reward?
So the color for the clubs, yellow, blue, purple, and green don't mean anything then? They don't add anything to the player or how the club plays?
The better the rarity of the spec the better attributes to the spec making those clubs better
@midKnightYT I was just talking about the club themselves you unlock. They are color coded too. Like I have a ping driver and it's purple. I have a ea driver and it's green. And I have a hammer head and it's blue. So those colors mean nothing? Just cosmetic?
@Brandon Smith oh yeah my bad. That's pure cosmetic
@@Col.Smitty It makes the challenges kind of lame, some are really hard and doing it just for the look of a club is kinda pointless
Has there been a patch yet, I'm still playing on the trial debating. Ik the trial probably won't get any patches. On the trial I can't change swing settings.
Tomorrow is official launch
Are you playing on ps5 or PC ?
Ps
So if I buy an iron spec will it apply to all the irons in my bag or do I need to buy a separate spec for each iron?
1 spec for all irons, but you will have to equip that 1 spec on each iron
@@Ma_Kachada ok thank you so much for the reply. Great videos!
Where is the video for the free currency
ua-cam.com/video/Xma8lIh1Pjs/v-deo.html
When I tee off I'm always swinging slow, how can I make the swing faster?
Faster more aggressive downswing
When getting specs can’t you click apply to all irons or wedges etc ?
I may have missed that options. If it's there, then I rescind what I said, but I didn't see it when I looked
Those are triangles
So basically you MUST play online to have any hope of actually upgrading your player. Huge 👎🏼
Not at all. There's legendary fittings in the store. Also skill points increase your player
@@Ma_Kachada right but you barely earn any offline in career mode…..

what is the retraining and get token back?
If you added a skill point , but want to change how you added them to different areas.
My guy struggling with basic shapes…. That’s a triangle not a diamond 🤦♂️
How do you earn skill points?
Level up. Level 50 is max skill points
You can do that or you can cancel your pre-order for this terrible game there is no reason for anybody to buy this game. Well when it's $10 Yeah
