I'm sure there are ways of cheating that nobody can detect. How about being Tour Pro but your settings are really at Hacker? I don't know how its done but I'm sure somebody can set it and I'm sure there are other ways also. I'm an average golfer here and know that when I miss the fairways its difficult to get close to the pin with the power loss and the spin loss. I have a difficult time just making the green from the rough sometimes. Yet I look at other guys scorecards and see they hit one green in regulation (don't know why) but yet birdie or eagle every hole. Impossible. I have also watched players shoot and miss bottom snaps by a fair amount and their ball still goes straight at the pin. If I miss the bottom snap by even the thickness of a piece of paper, my ball goes 30 feet left or right of the pin, minimum. People cheat in EVERY game played. This one is no exception.
If it goes left, its a hook. If it goes right, its a slice. If it goes straight, its a miracle!

I am with you linksly, miss the snap by a hair and its gone, but i have learned to save rough shots, matter of fact i get alot of my birdies from the rough because i am always there thus i have no choice but to try to be a rough master, oh yea and the sand as i am in most of them, sand-to-sand is my fav lol, in closing tour pro is a mf, i do sometimes have a g8 rd but to far and inbetween, but still have fun especially the pair up tournie thats my fav. as far as cheating goes cant put my finger on it, so let it be thats a song i think lol ok cubbies out good luck on the links m8 just try to do your best... :) :clapping: :clapping: :clapping:

There is no cheating going on and I would bet heavily on that. There are a few players that are head and shoulders above everyone else just as in any video golf game that uses the 3C method. It was that way at Links and is here also and the putting of those few is just another level from the rest of us. I have played against the recorded rounds of some of these and see why they are better and putting is huge. I now am playing 3C again as it's the only swing that can't be cheated as you either hit the Mark or you don't. I have made my case about player levels and those in power know how I feel but in no way is anyone cheating.

Have you tried using the caliber ball? its alot more forgiving at the snap, keeps me on the fairways... or just get better playing from the rough with the avant ball....hazzard tourney and my 4 wedges help with that(big gap between 230-195 clubs) on soft greens i sometimes aim for the rough if less than 80yards to prevent spin.....id be willing to play anyone at anytime to help if i can.....play well

Interesting Mark, can't say I've aimed for rough to avoid spin from wedge distance, but can understand it. My choice is to go up a club or 2 even and play less power to prevent spin. I have a 5w instead of the 4th wedge, can't have that big a gap above the 3I.
The scores may be unrealistic, or even a joke but heyho, that's what we got.

Play well and enjoy your game everyone! :drinks:

btw, not a game for snowflakes.

For those who need the extra power out of the rough you might not be using the right club. That club is the 7W and if the 4I has a decrease of power of 25% the 7W will be 10% or less and the hybrid plays like an iron and loses to much power also. I can't tell yo how many times from 160 to 180 I have used the 7W with great success. My irons only go to 5I for that reason. Try it you might like it.

If you notice I was talking about 3C only. I quit all RTS swing when I found a cheat for both mouse and controller.

How is it possible to cheat with a mouse. The admins at pgls have the post shot data and know if a mouse is being used on a straight edge/ rails. Also if someone is using an edge all playing will get the cheat message after the round ends
