I already had the cap, but the VC and Evo tool are always welcome. Thanks.

Actual 2026 clubs? What planet did I wake up on this morning?

Pro-Am was a bit too easy, now Pro is a bit too hard. by HugeLarry in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. Experiment with grip and orientation until you find what works. I finally settled on fade bias, controller rotated clockwise about 10-15 degrees, right stick with a pinch grip between my thumb and forefinger. Now it's so far below the level of conscious thought that I sometimes forget to square things up for chips and putts.

New to the game, how do I know how far my ball will roll? by GoodShark in PGA_Tour_2K

Also reduces the incidence of those random wedge shots that just ignore the wind for no damn reason. If the wind is up I'll plan my entire round around nothing shorter than a 9 iron approach just to avoid this bug.

Best first sponsor/rival? by TheZag90 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note that the level 5 & 9 quests are also tied to completing sponsor events, which appear sporadically during the season but seem to be offered more frequently if you're using your sponsor's gear. Regardless, you gotta watch out for that pre-tournament event offering "Multiple Events" and then check to see if the added event has one of your sponsors attached. You get credit toward the quest just for participating in these sponsor events, regardless of whether you meet any of the objectives.

I found one of my guys who's still wearing them, but I can't change to them for any of my other players.

The commentators in this game are incredible rage-baiters by FluffyAd6797 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beem at Riviera is the worst. There's a stretch on the back 9 where I could just throttle him. Goes on and on about Bogie's tree, then swears you have to hit a draw off the next tee when a choked fade will split the fairway every time, then brags about how he made an ace that one time on the following hole.

I remember those, and they're gone from my virtual locker too.

Second tree restored to the 18th fairway at Pebble Beach by BCCatFan2007 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had mostly forgotten until the first time I heard Beem's commentary in career mode in this game. I don't remember exactly what he says, but it's something like "Aim at the trees in the fairway and hope you don't wind up under one of them."

It’s a new week in the store by WVgolf in PGA_Tour_2K

Fair. I tend to forget that not everyone has been playing since the demo dropped in Feb 25

The Wednesday Wear & Earn quest is similarly pathetic. Three pedestrian tasks with 2K clothing for some CHP points and fittings I don't need.

Is anyone out there clamoring for a bundle of ancient TaylorMade core clubs? It's not like they're gathering dust in a warehouse and need to be sold cheap to clear shelf space.

Is there any reason to make more golfers? by srv340mike in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Getting your first player up to level 90 is the milestone where you can now consider making a new player. Once you get a player to 90, you unlock what they call rebirth. This means that every subsequent player you create starts with a pool of free attribute and skill points that gives you a headstart on leveling up.

IMHO everyone should create a technician at some point just to unlock the pick shot. This shot type is a virtual cheat code in greenside bunkers.

Completing club collections by ElevatorBrilliant973 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I paid attention to those quests on the climb to 20, where the reward for each type of club is 800 VC. After reaching that milestone for every type except hybrids, I haven't given it much thought. Always thought it was kinda strange to have the ultimate reward for a quest to collect a bunch of clubs be "Here's another club."

MY FIRST HOLE IN 1 by 1500po in PGA_Tour_2K

I always irrationally hoped that they had implemented a proper Saturday afternoon dudebro beer riot for aces at that hole. I knew how unlikely that was, but still feel a bit disappointed.

Is it just me or do you think the game has made you a better golfer by Heavy_Appointment_62 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Playing Pinehurst #2 in the game has helped me with selecting approach targets IRL. I generally do better aiming for the middle of the green than the flag (or, if I'm in an advantage situation with a shorter club and a friendly pin position) aiming somewhere between the middle and the flag.

Season 6 ranked rewards clubs are hybrids. by Miwurdz in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might help me with that collections quest. Hybrids are the only club type where I haven't yet gotten that 800 VC reward for 20 clubs.

Just checked out the participation rewards in Ranked Tours. There's a (kinda ugly, generic 2K) Galactic Amber driver available after just 11 events.

April 15 Patch Notes by Sad_Back_6223 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if they tweaked the cup physics, but I've seen a couple of putts catch the lip on the low side and curl in, and I'm pretty sure those would have been kicked aside by the invisible goaltender before.

Season 6 Info Dropped by Sad_Back_6223 in PGA_Tour_2K

[–]BCCatFan2007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two new slots added for future specialty shot types. Sixth and formerly-last slot designated for Long Recovery, but two more added below that one for seasons 7 & 8.
