Played a practice round on this one last week. It ate me up and spit me out.
Hopefully, things go better with the tourney "lights" on.

[cooke23]

Scored much better today despite taking a 7 on 18 after a drive down the middle. Note to self, leave the flop shot in the bag when you have a good round going.

[mikeingp]

Played with your ghost, you were hitting the ball well! Well done! Too bad about the bunker on 18 though...I hit that same one in two consecutive practice rounds.

[longhornlove]

Another good tournament for me. 1st sub par round for me. Played in a IRL tournament yesterday at my home course and shot 78. Best IRL tournament score for me. Was a windy day, tough scoring.

[DirtyGarry24]

Nice longhorn! Seeing some improvement in real life when under the gun is awesome stuff. We need to set up some live rounds before you go back out offshore. Contact BadEddieKit and get setup if you need help. I'd advise but I'd muck it up.

[longhornlove]

Going back today but will only be gone for a week as we are doing our soft swap. Ill hit you up when i get back.

I had two rewinds today. Both times TGC used incorrect data for SA. I took the rewind but I didn't have to rehit..... I can simply resend the data from my control panel, and the shot will go where it should have..... It is maddening when I set up for a big fade and the ball duck hooks in the opposite direction.... The reason it is maddening is that my sim has the data correct, but from my control panel to the TGC the SA changes from 1.4 to 35.2 and the other shot from -10.7 to 11.3..... so let's take this drive. I was really trying to shape this drive a lot.....right to left. So with -10.7 it should have moved a fair bit right to left.....so I am aiming down the right side because of this..... 11.3 duck hooks it into the trees on the right. If a guy was inconsistent with the driver, a player may not even notice. Not that I never mishit my driver..... but when I don't hit it well..... I usually know it. @ Protee..... can you point me in the right direction to find the data sent to TGC from my control panel? I need to find out if this is a GSA problem or a TGC problem. If I know where to look, I can check the data sent to TGC once a shot like this happens.. This is not the first time I have brought this up.....last time, I just heard crickets. I will be asking Martin to point me to the temp file as well. I am thinking that this may be a TGC problem as I have seen crazy SA's from other players. I am sorry but I don't think that any average player can put 35.2 SA on a shot especially when it hits the middle of the screen.

[keither5150]

But things are not off until the data gets to TGC..... my shot data from my PX5 system showed 1.4 SA but the game gets 35.2 so either my system is not sending 1.4 or TGC is pulling 35.2 out of thin air. When I rewind..... I don't rehit..... I just resend the original data... and the ball flies normally for 1.4 SA

I have asked Martin to direct me to the temp file that sends data to the game. Once I have that, I can figure out if it is GSA's issue or TGC. You know....if it were a few degrees.... I probably wouldn't notice but I hit my driver fairly well with most SA's less than 5 degrees when I am trying to hit straight and maybe as high as 10 when I am trying to shape the ball. When the SA is out by 30 degrees.... it is noticeable.

[ProTee United]

The data is sent to TGC directly. You can not find this anywhere. Check if the SS and SA match at all. If SS gives a negative and SA a positive then something is not sent to TGC correctly.

[keither5150]

Maybe I will ask Martin not to round off anything.....see if that helps. So far I can't see any reason that this is happening. The sim measures and calculates the data..... but the game receives SA that is sometimes way off. All other data fields are transmitted to TGC correctly. In the meantime, I will rewind and relaunch the shot until this is fixed. A few common denominators are ....it is always to the right, Never have I seen the ball fly crazy off to the left. Also, I have never seen a shot go straight when I was trying to shape the shot. The most SA I can put on a shot is about 12-13 degrees. Who can put over 30 degrees SA on a shot? Martin can't seem to find an issue on his end and because this happens so rarely, it may be tough to find the cause. Thanks for the reply.

Tough greens on this one. I couldn't make a putt and driver was all over the place. Another fun one to play though

[mikeingp]

Really had to grind that one out today. Managed to score pretty well (for me) but was scrambling almost every hole...lots of bad drives and long irons missed right. Guess I'll have to put in a couple of range days before round two.

[RawDrawz]

I'm back playing again after a long time fiddling and rebuilding my sim, I think I'm on version 3 now .

Can anyone with access rights change my Country flag? To Sweden?

By the way it's snowing here now (no thats not common in April, at least not in the middle to southern parts) so nice to be able to play until outdoor season starts for real.

Hope this one will be a bit shorter than last week, it was tough since my Driver is not really working yet.

[cooke23]

After my first round of this tournament, I had my 5th round logged. When do the handicaps get set? Will I need to wait till next week before my NET scores start showing an accurate handicap?

[DirtyGarry24]

Caps get adjusted every Tuesday. I bet it'll update next week.

[cooke23]

Hmm, guess my Monday round slipped through the cracks as that one was my 5th. Oh well, next week I should be good to go. Thanks for the reply Gary

First Tournament back after a long break from simulator golf. Moved some stuff around in my room so that I can now use as long as a 3 iron. Still tough to score on courses above 6k with only 210 or so off the tee.

Had a great practice round, shot 76, my personal best on the sim. Was super excited to play the tournament since I was striking the ball so well. Played a decent round one ending up with 80 while dropping quite a few shots around the green, had to chip a lot more than my practice round and only got up and down maybe once. Still getting used to chipping on the sim. Second round, I should have just waited until the next day. I was so tired that I was just stepping up and swinging, not properly going through club selection or pre-shot routine. Got saved by a few long putts otherwise the round would have gone really poorly.

Didn't realize my Tour HC was so high... last tournament I played I could only use a 6i so this was still challenging but nowhere near as bad as it was before.

Newbie here. Just got my SKytrak so just now learning all this. What does the SR column mean and what does the red x mean?

How to turn on SHOT RECORDING

[dvillicana]

Thank you! I thought I did all of this. I found that link and did step by step. On the setting interface it says Shot Recording ON. Not sure why it did not work?

[DirtyGarry24]

Welcome dvillicana! - SR stands for shot recording. The red x means that it isn't turned on. keither5150 will include instructions on how to turn it on shortly.

[dvillicana]

Thank you Gary!

[DirtyGarry24]

dvillicana - Normally the hang up is either between your name matching and having the correct ID pasted in your forum profile. Outside of that you may need to PM ProteeUnited. Hopefully some of that I will help, just going off memory of past comments.

[dvillicana]

I read through all the comments and saw the issues everyone was having and how they resolved. Thought I did everything correct but will reach out to Protee to help me with this. Appreciate the help and your time Gary.
