I've been waiting on some news regarding the next installment of Tiger Woods' videogame. Well, I was happy to see the first official preview today at Gamespot. I bought an XBox 360 a couple months ago, and Tiger Woods 07 is high on my wishlist of games. Last year's effort on the XBox 360 was pretty shallow, but it looks like they are getting things right this year.

Check out the Gamespot article.

Does anyone else have an XBox 360 by the way?

sounds and looks very cool. Those screenshots are amazing. I don't have a 360, but wow.

I'm currently addicted to Tiger 2006 on the PSP.

No I dont own one yet unfortunately. I think I'm going to wait until the winter when they're releasing the new edition with all the bugs/errors fixed. Plus hopefully the price might drop a bit.

I'll be buying a Wii and maybe,

maybe a PS3. But certainly not if it's $600.

I thought hard about waiting for the Wii, but it just didn't look as fun to me. That being said, Tiger Woods' games would be very fun with the Wii controller. That would be a reason to get the system in itself.

There is no way I'm going $600 for the PS3. I wish everyone would boycott Sony for that dumb decision. I don't watch movies on my PS2 anyway, and I wouldn't on the PS3.

I've had my XBox 360 for two months, and I've been happy so far. I don't play games an excessive amount though, so I may not have as many problems with overheating as some people have. My system has run fine so far (knock on wood).

Those graphics are awesome but on the screen shot when hes in the longer grass look at his eye it looks like its twitching. I still have the regular Xbox and I play 2006 its a fun game.

I have a 360... I have been playing the TW games since 2004... the 2006 version for the 360 is disappointing to me compared to 2005. I think it's moving in the right direction tho so I'm looking forward to 2007.

Hey, i have an XBOX 360 and the only game i go on is tiger woods 06, Ive completed the 03, 04 and 05 versions on the origional xbox and think the gameplay using the analogue sticks are great instead of the 3-tap circular bar of the older golf games. Im really looking forward to tiger woods 2007

I agree with ya bubba on the analog controls plus the tougher putting (needed that) but there's lots of graphic slow down and only SIX courses! I know they are adding an additional 6 for 07 but it would be nice if they threw us a bone and have some downloadable courses for 06...

I started way back with the TW 99 version for a laptop. My wife got me a PS2right after they came out and the guys from work bought me the TW2005 for Christmas that year. I really like the joystick in place of the meter and space bar arrangement. I also had the 2004 PS2 version and they keep improving it every year.

I agree that the putting was way too easy. I was making birdies from 50ft.. Not something I am used to with my real game, trust me.

Well, unfortunately for gamers, EA Sports and other companies like to make their money any way possible. They will just keep adding stuff to each year's games, so we will keep buying. It's a smart philosophy, but it's cruel. :)

By the way, here is a little gameplay footage of Tiger Woods 07 for the 360. It shows Tiger playing a couple holes.

The people over at IGN do Tiger Tuesday until the release of the game. They focused on the UCAP technology this week. Check this picture out. Unbelievable!

What's with the gallery?

I'm not sure, I was just looking at how great Tiger's character looked. They do have more in the gallery this year though.

I guess the current-gen versions (XBox, PS2, PC) hit stores today, but the XBox 360 version is being held off until next week. I really wanted to play it before flying to North Carolina, but I guess I can wait until next week.

I'm very excited to play this year's. I will definitely do a write-up on the game in the next few weeks, possibly even on the main page as well.

Is anyone else getting it today, or are you holding out for the XBox 360 version?

      2025 TST Outing Preliminary Blabber

      By Hardspoon ·

      So far, it's looking pretty even.  The first weekend (the one in May) is probably out, but the others all seem to work in general.  I'll give it until the end of a week for votes and then pick one.

      Code of Conduct Not Entered as Local Rule - Still Valid?

      By cdh79 ·

      So I am aware that "the committee is allowed to set its own standards of player conduct in a code of conduct adopted as a local rule" (rule 1.2b) I also understand that there are some aspects that are allowed to be entered, and some that are not allowed.  My question specifically is: In which form does this code of conduct need to be available? Is it enough for someone to say "that's part of our code of conduct", or is it a requirement, that the code of conduct is in written form? Also, is there a need that the local rule points to the code of conduct in any way?   For better understanding: I'm playing competition and the next course that we play has a "no smoking policy". I don't have a problem with it, as I don't smoke anyway, but one of my team-mates does, and someone told him "You'll get disqualified if you smoke on the course".   Now I have looked at their local rules and there is no reference to a "code of conduct". I'm not sure if they even have an official "code of conduct" that states that smoking is not allowed.   I fully agree that he SHOULD respect this request from the club, but I am wondering if the club would really be allowed to DQ this player for this, if it's not properly documented in their local rules/code of conduct?  This is an official national amateur tournament, so not just something organized by a club for its members.

      My Journey to Straighter Iron Shots

      By MiuraMan ·

      A few months back I purchased the following swing aid on Amazon ($130). It is solidly made of steel and heavy and stable in use. I use it both at the range and at home. Swing Plate Dual PRO by Jamie Brittain - Swing Analyzer Aid - Fits Standard 8mm Alignment Rod Sticks - Teaching Swing Plane Perfector - Indoor/Outdoor Golfing Practice. This winter I set a goal for myself to improve my backswing/downswing to be more consistent and on plane. I had a two way miss with my approach shots this past golf season. I have a hitting set-up in my garage, but I needed something to provide feedback while swinging the club. I came across the Swing Plate while browsing YouTube.   I set it up with the correct angles for my 8 iron. I started out with just the back rod in place, which prevents me from getting too far inside on the backswing. Started out slow and as I got comfortable increased my swing speed. Now I also came across a YouTube video on building a better backswing and getting more width in the backswing and added that to my practice. That video is here:    This video is a bit wordy since you are basically a fly on the wall as Ian gets a lesson. It took a few replays to be able to get the substance of the instruction. It was well worth the effort. Over the last two weeks I have been able to get out on the course and gauge how successful my practice has been. Overall, my consistency with approach shots has improved greatly. Incorporating the added width in my swing has also added a few yards to all my clubs.  What has your off-season training been like?
