To the previous discussion on swinging diagonally in sim mode... The point is to make a perfect swing very difficult.... From what it said, if I swing it str8, be prepared for rough ..... The diagonal swing is much harder to pull off and very hard to be precise.... That will give the mode the difficulty many have asked for with out resorting to Random Landings.... I love the idea as it killed the 3rd party controller debate along with the ... I hit every fairway debate.... So even though you are trying to hit the ball basically straight, you will have to hit with the diagonal swing as a fade or draw based on your preferences in your character..... Divot... correct me if I am wrong on this....

Nope, you nailed it.....

Hm, I thought that swing style would incorporate actual swing styles/methods shown by each individual player. For example, Tiger is Sean Foley - centered swing; Bubba is all leverage where he swings with his toes in the air and Luke Donald is controlled - traditional swing.

Maybe I'm too much of a swing type enthusiast, or maybe there hasn't been footage that shows this - but this was what I was hoping for; either way it'snot a game breaker by any means.

So I am supposed to memorize all yardage on each of my clubs? How is that?

The OS XBOX 360 Country Club should be even more fun this year with this setting. Cannot wait.

In years past, the game gave you a general yardage # for each club when you select clubs... It is kind of needed as you get better and add attributes.... so you willl get a general 160 yd 9 iron... from there though, you will have to gauge elevation, wind, how hard, ect. ect.... remember.. This is Simulation...meaning the game at it most difficult level... It will not be for most people.... only the die hards
