  • TGC2019 Skytrak

    Now that the emails have went out and people are going to start playing today as I have I would like to know what your thoughts are. Better or worse and why. I have a lot more testing but the first thing I would update is the ball trail is way to thick and the bounce might be a little excessive in certain situations. I am not sure yet but my irons seem a bit longer. I am for sure having trouble stopping my 15 to 30 yard pitches.

    I am really having trouble getting the ball to backspin around the green, I dont think I have had a shot pull back yet. Maybe we should be playing with out the patches to see how it reacts?

        i guess patch is the wrong word but the settings corrections in the File.

          Do you actually get the similar results IRL on pitch shots that you see in TGC? Most people believed there was too much spin on TGC vs real life. Many referred to the greens as "sticky". Definitely a difference between TGC and TGC2019 for rollout.

            If an 11k RPM shot coming into a green from a full 60degree doesn't back up... tell me, what do you think is needed for a ball to back up?

            EDIT: Ignore my post, I was mistaken. Sorry!

            JackedUpSwing so where do you see 11k spin in any of the posts above? Or any spin measurements? Only comments are 15-30 yd shots and spin around the greens. I agree if 11k is not spinning that's a problem, but I haven't seen that. I've hit about 10k spin and seen it check up and come back some. Are you changing any of the green settings ahead of time? That may contribute to it as well.

            I'm on my phone, but I 100% agree about the chipping and pitch shots being too sticky in tgc1. However, I remember seeing someone posting about 11k rpms rolling out. I am on my phone right now, so I can't find it.

            I think it might have been related to 7400 masters course with firm/fast greens. I think it might have been wizardofcoz.

            My bad if I'm wrong about the 11k spin shots rolling out. I'll edit my post

          I played Magnolia National Par 3 course earlier using default conditions and wedge shots would hit, bounce once, then check. Pretty similar to real life.

              i have not tested a full 60 yet but I will today, I hit more controlled shots in from 130 with half to 3/4 swings. I was talking about the pitches that should be checking but seem to bounce but I dont want to be to critical until I play some more because I know that their is a learning curve.

                I now have found what seems to be an issue with match play, my bud came over yesterday and we played match play. On hole 2 i was behind 3 strokes and he was on the green and I was not so i decided to concede. I went to menu and concede hole and it halfed the hole and lost its count. Looks like it did not even count the hole for us. It messed up everything so we tested again on hole 6 and it did the same. The score card for the match play showed us on hole 7 and the strokes card showed us on 9. this has to be a bug, no sense you should not be able to concede hole in match play to save time as their is no gimmes.

                  Hi all - does anybody else have a delay of around 10 seconds even on USB mode for TGC2019 and Skytrak?

                    Is it worth the upgrade to 2019? I would have to spend almost $600 (Canadian) to upgrade. Are there any new features to justify this other than better graphics?

                      yes I had more delay, ie the red point on skytrak disappeared but the ball never leaves. once in wifi mode no more worries.

                        Ah so for you it's quicker in WiFi mode than usb? Didn't try that

                        ...edit and are you using Direct mode?
