    FSX2020 - Change Pin Placements in Improve/Practice Mode?

    Hello All,
    New GCQ and FSX2020 owner. Quick question for the experts. While in Improve mode, is there a way to change the pin placement on the green? I'd like the ability to move it around the green when practicing my approach shots.

    Thanks.

        Looks like the only way to do this is to go into "Play" mode, select your course and hole, then change the Pin Difficulty on the Rules tab. (There are only three options ---Easy, Normal, and Hard.) Each one changes the pin to a different spot on the green and then you can go into "Practice" mode to continue hitting shots to it. This works well for a Par 3, but for longer holes you will have to lay up to the distance you want to practice from, then go into Practice mode. I wish there were more options for this as three pin placements per hole isn't super useful.

          Does it always put the pin in the exact same spot depending on the pin location for example if you choose Normal it doesn't seem to move it ever but the exact same spot for normal placement. Or if you choose hard its always in the exact same hard spot. Doesn't seem to move it maybe back hard or front hard. Its a set location. Wish they moved it around like a quadrant or rotation.

            From what I noticed, each one tends to be in the same location. Would be so much better if they had three or four different pin placements for each difficulty setting.

              Yes. More pin positions seems like an easy upgrade for Foresight to implement.
