  • Tour and Tournements

    I'm sure this has been covered before but I can't seem to find all the info I need. I have had the software and my sim set up for a week. TGC is a pretty awesome program and I'm very happy with my puchase.

    So there are tournaments and a tour. What is the difference?
    Q school events?
    This sounds dumb but shot recording is a camera recording me hit the shoot in real life on a web cam? Do I need this for tournaments as well?
    Do you get points or trophys for winning events?
    what is the web site I have read about for the tour and or events (tournaments)

    Any other info you can tell would be appreciated. I'm very excited to play events and compete online.

      Welcome to the tour.

      TGC Golf Simulator Tours, Tournaments and Challenges - Get the most out of your Golf Simulator. Join the excitement!



      Please read the top posts. Disregard anything that is older than 2016.

      Register on the tour website and they will keep track of your tournament rounds. I can look at scorecards from last year.

      Tournaments are events played on the same course....ie 3 rounds at Kapalua plantation course.
      Within TGC you can pick tournament or tour..... Tour means numerous rounds on different courses.



      When people talk about the tour, they mean http://golfsimulatortours.com/home.php. The tour website organizes events, that when possible mirror what the pros are playing at the same time.
      We just finished Kapalua bay plantation course.

      Shot recording is a requirement for tournament rounds. See above link for how to turn on shot recording. Shot recording records all of the shot data. Below is a link to mine. Data is public for all to see. Keeps everyone honest. Shot data is found under "recorded shots"
      From the tour site you can check out my handicap or how I did on previous events.

      Q school helps you establish your handicap faster.

      No need for you to record your round.

      Any other info...... read all you can in online play and on the tour website.

      If you go to YouTube, you will find that quite a few players have recorded their tournament rounds and posted them.

      Careful that you are reading current information. There are some posts from 2014 or so that are not relevant anymore.

      After a whole bunch of reading, feel free to ask questions if something isn't clear.

        I turned on shot record in the skytrak pro tee menu. Is that enough? Do I need to have a camera physically record my swing like I saw guys doing on the tour site?

        I did follow those instructions so it should be on and I should be ready to go. Thanks I saw those guys on the site with web cams and thought I may need to set one up. Glad I don't need one.

          Tournaments are on one course. Tours multiple.
          Tour school establishes a handicap. Nothing else.
          Points, trophys...doesn't matter. It's all virtual.
          Shot recording tracks data only

          Just play. You'll figure it out.

              I don't think there will be one but I'm gonna ask just to make sure. Is there a junior tour?

                No junior tour. Is there interest. My kid would play. Bubba22? Would he play?

                  Thank you for clarifying. It'd be great if there is one for kids.
