Yes you are right, I think they had it on PGA Tour 05. But I don't have xbox anymore, xbox 360. Plus Microsoft has not made PGA Tour 05 backwards compatible to 360.

The carry is like 300+, If I reach the elbow I'm breathing again. Probably the most intimidating first whole in golf.

True indeed. I always found the 5th(?) tee shot very intimating. Or which ever hole is that one par 5 with all the bunkers on it.

4.

It's not a terrible tee shot in real life if you're committed to playing the hole as a three-shot hole. Only when you want to try to go for it in two is it an intimidating shot. I played Bethpage Black a few years ago and am looking forward to watching it on TV.

Thats a course I'd love to have on the game.

I just wish they would fix the distances, I get really tired of hitting driver, 9 irons into par 5's on holes in real life would take at least a 4 iron, and I try to make my distances realistic. The games just get boring that way.

Does anybody know which players will be in the game this year. I am thinking of getting a Wii and it would be nice to play a little golf. I played the 09 on Wii and i didnt really like but hopefully 2010 will be better.

This nice thing with playing Tiger Woods on the Wii... you can kind of tailor your own distances in there with the club tuner...

Looks like the new Tiger Woods PGA Tour is going to have Bethpage Black. I've been waiting for them to add this course back to the game for a while. Seeing as though Bethpage is my local track I'm pretty pumped. Anyone else hear any other news regarding the new release?

i call every day to try and get on.. i think it closes next sunday so i got 1 more week.. lets hope.. Anyone else

Considering new Woods what you think ?

If you are bored with Tiger Woods being too easy because of the distance and spin that you can put on the ball, then turn it to "Tour Pro" difficulty. You can no longer add any power, put any spin on shots, or have a putting line. It really reinvents the game when the standard difficulty gets boring.

I just hope they ease up on the skill rating system. It's far too punishing if you miss a couple shots.

Wii also has a thing coming out in June that snaps in where the nunchuck goes that is supposed to vastly improve the motion sensing capability. TW '10 is going to be one of the first game that supports it.

I haven't decided whether or not to get TW '10 for Wii or PS3. I skipped TW '09 so I'm ready.

I do, and still walk away with 54's.

Which is why I broke out my 05, which can be easier, but at least manageable, and more fun. Not to mention none of that pre set your shot shape crap.

If you are buying for the Wii, make sure you buy the game with the motion plus as a bundle. I saw some early demos of the motion plus and it looks like it will be able to accurately match your swingm 1:1. Looks awesome. I preordered it and am super pumped to get it.

    • Im struggling to hit a 3 wood any distance. Im 67 now and used to use a 3 wood all the time. My swing speed with the 3 woods is between 80-84. I am only 5'5" tall. I currently have 4- 3 woods in my used club selection. I have an old Titliest 910FD, a Taylormade Sim2, a PXG gen 4 and a Ping G430. None of these can i hit more than 180 yards and often much shorter. My driver which is a Ping G430 I hit about 210-225. Heres the crazy thing, I carry a Taylormade Sim2- 7 wood that I hit 175-185. I carry an older titliest H1 Hybrid 23* that i hit 165-175. All yardages are with carry. When i hit both the Hybrid and the 7 wood they feel like very solid strikes yet I never feel like i hit any of these 3 woods solid. All of these clubs have regular shafts of different manufacturers. I would like to be able to hit a 3 wood 200 yards. Im thinking I need to start playing with shafts, Maybe even shorten them some. I have equipment to pull shafts and set swingweights and reglue. I have a bunch of reg flex old driver shafts that i could shorten. My driver, 7 wood and Hybrid are all D3 Swingweight. The 3 woods are D3 as well.  Where would you start? Thanks Rod  
    • This was a great read from start to finish. Ive been watching the LAB putters for 3 or 4 years now. Ive never been a good putter and Ive worked at putting but i just dont seem to get better at it. I play at least 3 times a week with a 11.6 Hdcp and i have owned probably 20+ putters over my last 10 years. Ive even tried the broomstick putters which at first I thought helped but as time went on i missed just as many putts. For me it comes down to nerves which i struggle to control when putting. I always feel like i have someone leaning over me watching my every move when i putt. I had a friend I play with this fall go get fitted for a LAB and he came back all excited, he bought one and he was already a player that probably averages 32 putts a round. So i think I would say hes a good putter. I used his putter a few times and the feeling i get compared to my putter which right now is a Ping Vault 2.0 Piper and just before that an Evnroll ER5v and before that Spyder Ghost........anyway the feeling I notice was that i can take the putter back without it twisting some. At least thats the feeling i get. I dont know if i would be a better putter with a LAB putter but after this year i will know as I went and was fitted and have one on the way. I can only hope it makes a differnce. If not ive got plenty of putters to fall back on!  Rod
    • Great year last year. Who winning this year could be another special story? Brooks? Spieth? Or Aberg? An AM? I dont know if anything could top last year 
    • I love Rancho Park too!  I don't get out there much due to the 405 issues (Im in Santa Clarita) but I do try and get out there every now and then...last time out was in January where I eagled 17 (left green) with a holed 145 yard third shot ! Rancho is a great course! And at 24 bucks weekday with the city card, an absolute steal!        
    • I have played PGA West, at least one or two courses in there, but I am not sure if I've played any of the courses used to host the Hope. I played a course that I think both isn't PGA West and is host to the Hope a few years ago, possibly at a TST outing, but I'm not sure if I'm thinking of the right one. I have played Rancho Park plenty of times (exactly half of my sub-80 rounds were there!) and Wilson/Harding.  Rancho Park might be my favorite golf course among those I've played more than a half dozen times.   Hopefully I'll get a chance to play TPC Scottsdale, maybe this August or September, and at some point I think there was a PGA Tour event in Las Vegas, I should get up there and play those course(s).
