Practice up....I'm away on business and wont be able to play until Wednesday night.....but when I do play I'll be going for ya!!

I can't start a 1 Hole Round, online. It says 'Please go to the teeing green" I go there and can't figure out what to do. Any help?

Really enjoying the game and having fun despite it being repetitive early on. A quick question for folks...

I occasionally get a warning "Hit with low/high elevation" or some such when you have a obstacle in the way. But I've no idea how to change elevation - low or high. I looked around but couldn't see how I could change elevation. Any help?

@bcruise, I'm hoping you have the answer

Also, where do I download the manual from? I purchased the game digitally and can't find the manual anywhere and was hoping to download it online the way I do for Madden.

You can get some extra lift with backspin, but early on it's not going to do much. Higher-numbered clubs will lift the ball more too, like the wedges. In those situations though, you might be better off "taking your medicine" and pitching out to somewhere where you have a better shot. Usually it's not going to be worth the risk of torpedoing your entire round just to clear one obstacle.

Manual link is on the Overview from the PS4 "dashboard". It just opens in a web browser.

I'm really impressed with this game. Hot Shots out of bounds was my favorite but Everybody's golf crushes that. This is by far the best golf game ever.

Played the introductory tournament. Absolutely love the game so far. Blew a birdie on the first hole because I'm still used to the OOB advanced swing mechanic. Still won the tournament, but I'm rusty.

Already bought the DLC course and I've got the preorder one too. Will definitely be playing this a lot. Has a bit of a Disney Infinity + Hot Shots Golf feel to me with the Home area.

How do you drive the cart? I saw it but couldn't get in it.

Love this game! I'm off tomorrow, so I'll be playing this game all day long!

Few things I learned about online play from dropping in on Mill's stream of the game tonight:

There are definitely multiple instances of each open course for online. So, just because you're on the same course as someone else doesn't necessarily mean you'll be able to see them. The good news on that front is that you can join on a PSN friend (that's how I got into Mill's game). If you do that it won't actually put you in a party with them, but you can see them and watch them play out their round in real time (and vice versa). I don't actually see a way to party up with someone in open-world in the game itself, and that's a little disappointing. There's also no voice chat as far as I can tell, but I'm sure party chat (from the PS4 frontend) works like it normally does.

You can create a room and make it friends-only, but those are limited to 4 players only and I think it's the alternating stroke play format.

All of this combined might make it difficult to coordinate a large group like we used to do for these games. Hope I'm missing something.
