J-Rod:
Speaking of this thread, I have 2006 installed on my mame machine, but it appears that there's no resolution setting for 640x480, and the 800x600 just is too small to display on my tv. Anyone with 2006 running in 640x480?

Alright, I just changed my profile from my custom made amateur player to Tiger Woods and then went to the Tournament calendar and entered a tournament.  The first tournament I was 30 under for the 4-day tournament and won.  That's what I was looking for.

But . . .

This game seems to be harder to play than Golden Tee.  I really like in Golden Tee how changing the club brings a yard marker out on the course so you can see about where your shot would hit.  How do you judge distance on the EA courses?

Also, I would like to play through the Legends Tour with my amateur player, but I find it impossible to judge where my shots will go.  I have yet to hit a Tee shot with my amateur guy further than 220 yards or so.  Without being able to judge distance on the course, I can't tell where my shots will go.  Also, when I put my mouse cursor over the current club, it tells me what the max distance for that club is, but that is not accurate for my amateur player.  So . . . how in the world do you judge what your shots are going to do well enough to actually beat the girls and kids you are matched against?

Also, I beat a few players in the Legends tour and bought additional power for my guy, but I don't seem to be driving it any further.  I can drive fine with Tiger, so I don't think I'm hitting the ball wrong.

Finally, in Golden Tee you can predictably hit hood and slice shots to go around obstacles, but how do you do this in EA Tiger Woods?

Sorry for all the questions, but this game has a lot of potential if I just knew what the hell I was doing :P

I'm not trying to be rude here.... but Cheese n' Rice man, READ THE MANUAL!

The TW2005/2006 manual will tell you everything you are asking.  For example: Golden tee has the yellow line marker, but TW has a shot target button (camera flys to shot target).  TW however does not let you remap its button, so you will need to reprogram your CP to the correct TW buttons.

Good luck, and BTW, it is a GREAT Cab game once you read the manual ;)

Is that accurate for the stunted ability of the amateur, or is it based on Tiger Woods ability?
SQrL:
Shot target is accurate for your ability at "perfect" conditions (temp good, power 100%, no wind, etc...).  The shot target button is "E" btw.  Hmmm... maybe you can find a pdf manual for the game online....  I'll do some looking for you as well.

best wishes  ;)
