TGC Tour - Arnold Palmer Invitational

[mthunt]

I believe Protee is waiting for an integration with TGC Tours which would give you everything you want.

I remember that being brought up a few months ago but haven't heard anything else about it. That would be awesome. TGC Tours is a very well run operation. I'm really not trying to be difficult or complaining but I think it's the only area really holding TGC back. Hope that integration happens.

Have you seen the amount of stats available in the game?

[gerry59]

three thumbs up Pro Tee !!!

I have. It's a great feature. But TGC isn't installed on my iPhone or any other PC for that matter.

No issue of you being difficult, its good questions. As mthunt says we are waiting partly on TGC Tours integration. The barrier to getting all this done is hinging on the API that will come with version 3.0 TGC software which we have been all patiently awaiting. There are obvious bugs that are holding this back. Once that is here there will be leaderboard updates including net, gross etc. etc. This has all ben a learning experience for Protee and it will get done right, especially with all the tour players coming on board.

I would also like to see some type of strokes gained statistics like the PGA Tour tracks. For a 5 handicap, I feel like this is the most beneficial way to improve your game.

Great suggestions. Right now there are global statistics in TGC. There will be club stats that hopefully a group of us will be testing soon but it all depends on the damn API version 3 stuff!!! With it we will be able to easily show the Tour stats and one can track their individual club stats. The club stats will only be accurate if you are paying attention to hitting the TGC shown club. If it is set at wedge and you hit a driver then the stats will be off of course. that's why I try to get in the habit of selecting what I am hitting now. Makes sense?

Awesome Bubba. Thanks. Wasn't aware of the API update. Great things ahead! Keep up the good work ProTee United

No problems Vince. I will keep you guys all posted. The API will give it all and is really needed for all the plans by Protee. On a different note Vincent, have you updated to firmware 1.5? I had a lot of non registered shots but since going to version 1.5 it is much, much better.

[Mike80]

Well this round is ruined! The Par 3 hole #2, I got stuck in the rocks and couldn't get out. Took a 10 on it. Next hole my drive was directly behind that tractor. Took a 9 on that hole. I'm at +15 thru 4 holes. I had to exit the game. Getting frustrated! Will have to come back at a later time. But it's not looking good! Wish I could just start over.

Well I finally went back to finish this terrible round. Shot 104 +32....OUCH! That bad start with 15 over thru 4 holes killed me! Too many areas where I got stuck and couldn't chip up to green where finally had to do unplayable. Couldn't hit the fairway. Kept slicing bad!

Weird because just played a couple real rounds outside hitting my drives straight. Seems my Skytrak is slicing my ball when it shouldn't be. Anybody else experience heavy slices on Skytrak that you think shouldn't be? Well just glad this round is over..haha!

I just finished the front 9 of my first round of the tournament. I had 3 no reads through 9. I did update the firmware before, my unit is showing 1.5. Not to get off topic here in this thread, but would the backdrop behind me have any effect on my readings. Such as a white wall? Would a darker color behind me be better for the camera? Just trying to think of anything to improve my results. Ultimately I can live with 4 or 5 of those a round, it's just aggravating when those are multiplied with more people come over to play.

[wbond]

My wall or lack their of behind me is the paper facing of insulation. So dull brown. I very rarely have a misread. Can't say it's a misread for sure since if i waggle the club, top light sometimes will go off and I might have hit before it came back on.

I've noticed that as well Mike. All of my woods are fading when I typical draw the ball in real life. It's only the woods doing it. Just figured it was my rusty winter swing (and it very well may be in my case). Haven't been out on the real course yet to compare.

[Mike80]

Wondering if other Skytrak users are experiencing the heavy slice with driver. Is it Skytrak or issue with TGC calculating the data given from Skytrak.

[Bubba22]

Not TGC. I see more hooks with my driver. I naturally draw the ball.

[wbond]

Nope, can't hit a fade or slice to save my life. Pretty much a draw all day long. However, i sometimes think the draw is a little overdone when playing TGC. But who knows, haven't hit it outside yet, too much work finishing my garage setup.

I just finished a practice round. It's going to be hard to score this week. I played conservative and tried to go for center of the green. Still shot a 94.
