![เก่งแต่ลับหลัง (FINSTA) - ส้ม มารี (Zom Marie) Ft. Punch 4EVE [Official Teaser]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Fvt0Wz1hfGY/mqdefault.jpg)
For beginners and casual players; I’ve compiled a list of all the shot types and their usage for reference during a round:
Advanced Driving: Loft
Occasionally, you might want to add a higher or lower loft to your shot.
Adding a lower loft helps keep the shot arc low in strong headwinds, stay under obstructions, or you want more of a rollout.
Advanced Approach: Loft a
A higher loft allows the ball to get up in the air higher and faster. Can be used if there is a strong tailwind to help add some distance or if you want a softer, less of a rollout on the landing. Work on hitting 5 high loft shots to get over the bushes.
Chip Shots
A chip is a low shot that is played mostly along the ground and spends little time in the air. Chip shots are generally hit when close to the green and the golfer just wants to get the ball started to let it roll out toward the hole like a putt. Practice hitting 5 chip shots.
Pitch Shots
A pitch shot is played more through the air and does not have as much roll.
This shot travels higher and further in the air than a chip shot. Pitch shots are generally hit with your higher lofted clubs. Practice hitting 5 pitch shots
Flop Shots
A flop shot travels high in the air, lands softly, and stops quickly on the putting surface.
Blast Shots
A blast shot is the standard short shot from the bunker.
Punch Shots
The standard low shot for getting out of trouble. The low punch shot is also a great shot to have in your bag when you're looking for more control or a lower flight, perhaps when playing into a strong wind. Practice hitting 5 punch shots.
Power Drives
A powerful shot that goes farther than the normal drive but brings a large random mishit circle into play.
Stinger Shots
The stinger shot is a control shot that flights the ball at a lower trajectory, reduces the spin of the ball, and causes it to roll out farther than a higher-trajectory shot. Practice hitting 5 stinger shots.
Power Approach Shots
A powerful shot that goes farther than the normal approach but brings a large random mishit circle into play.
Knock Down Shots
A low approach shot designed to stay under the wind but flies high enough to land softly. A knock down goes the same distance as a regular shot, only lower and with more spin. Practice hitting 5 knock down shots.
Finesse Shots
A shot that takes some power off to help with gaps in distances between clubs.
Hack Shots
A strong swing that is used to get the ball out of thick rough with solid distance.
Runner Shots
A low-driving pitch shot that rolls out a lot.
Spinner Shots
A low-flying, high-spin pitch shot that lands and checks quickly,
Pick Shots
A bunker shot hitting minimal sand to produce a cleaner strike and more backspin.
Long Flop Shots
A long-distance flop that has a decent check.
High Flop Shots
A short distance flop that goes extremely high and sticks on landing.
Texas Wedge Shots
A long swing putting stroke that can be accessed from off the green.
Bro like you helped me understanding the whole thing!!! Can't thank you enough🤘🏼
Nice job, I was just on the course earlier trying to recall the exact specifics of a knock down shot. Cheers mate.
What are you fav shoots ?
Thanks for the info ...
@@germainfleury5018 I’m digging the spinner shot right now…
Appreciate the time your taking making these videos buddy,they’ve been a great help to me since I started watching them
I was about to totally stop playing this game until I watched these videos,and now I gotta play it as much as possible thank you for these videos,they are very helpful no doubt!
You are a legend. Thank you for taking the time to help us all out!
Man those kind of videos are needed badly🤩 thanks for experimenting and sharing your thoughts. Spinning and club selection will be the next exciting video.
I too was ready to quit as this game is tough until you level up and get some better equipment. Been playing for three weeks and finally hitting close shots to the cup. I like that it's no arcade game with birdies every hole. Thanks for your videos as they helped me stay the course and persevere. Live long and prosper...V
Great job dude, Always helpful! Thank you and please keep em coming! :)
Keep it coming man. Great videos, and great explanations. Preciate you
Great video! I'll be following you for all my pga tour gameplay help! Love the game! 👍
I appreciate your editing skills for making the menu navigation appear faster than it actually is.
Another great video, mate! Thank you! 😊
Amazing video thank you for taking time to teach this!!!
I really appreciate your hard work…thanks
Great stuff been playing all weekend love this game 🙂
You should do one on putting with uphill and downhill and how green speeds effect the putt. I had a long uphill putt at wolf creek which required putting the icon 70 feet past the hole to get it there.
For more accurate testing you can select #17 on Teeth of the Dog as it’s very level from tee to fairway. Then under gameplay settings use 3-Click swing mechanic to guarantee perfect/perfect, and turn on mulligan to be able to repeat tee shot. Then adjust your wind as needed. Allowed me to find all club carry distances for each shot type and make a chart rather quickly.
This helped tremendously! Subbed
It took me a few shots to trust it. But it works pretty accurately! Thanks for the tips MK
Thank you so much. I love this game and want to get good at it.
Great info... thanks
No, thank you dude ;) I learned quite a few things from your videos. Keep it going.
Awesome content, hell of a job 🎯
Thank you for this, I actually was thinking I wasted money buying this game because I couldn’t get a good shot. Now just need to get better at my swing, a lot of times I way underswing
Great video, super helpful.
Patiently waiting for putting video 😊
Sorry to keep the wait. Hopefully the patch comes soon
Hey my man - your numbers on the elevation & wind are pretty much accurate - people need to have golf sense to know that different clubs such as wedges will react a little bit due to the wedge itself hits higher & low irons hit lower !!! Your doing a GREAT JOB on your videos dude - keep up the good work !!! Have a GREAT DAY !!!!!
Appreciate you
I have no golf sense 😂
Thanks for your work! Your videos are really well-detailed and explained. Would it be possible to have an updated video on wind calculation? I mean distance affects the calculation (further shorts will be affected more by the wind than closer shots). Also, a topic that no one talks about... How to calculate diagonal winds? N-E, S-W, etc. Finally, do you calculate differently facing the wind or the wind in your back? Thanks again for all your work!
awesome tutorial, really helpful…..thank you
Good shit MK! Thank you. 🙌👉🤘🏼
Awesome video dude
You are a legend mate
Thanks for video. Unfortunately tournament rewards are not unlocking for me(and many others) and EA won’t let me create a support ticket. Spending my time and reward points and doing well just to get nothing is very disappointing.
Thanks again for being on top with the tutorials! "YES" ~> Both the putting green itself AND the putting mechanics are bad. EA Sports ~> Simply look at and take notes at the all around putting set up for WGT and 2K23.
Great video. Done al coach challenges and got a bit better. Making pars and the occasional birdie. Biggest two issues I have with the game right now are: 1) rolls on approach shot type. Totally in the dark when they roll like crazy or drop dead in their tracks. Makes for a lot of bogeys or worse. So more on how to read those world be much appreciated. 2) unforgiving puts. I’ve put 8 points into putting, but they are still missing a lot, just falling still on the edge or rolling just beside it. Also, that putting line a lot of times makes no sense at all. Tips welcome. I do enjoy the game btw 👍
I don’t have many upgrades on putting so far and I played Rory McIlroy PGA Tour until the current EA Sports PGA Tour has released.
To make the connection between the topics:
Putting feels very similar to Rory McIlroy PGA Tour and is a classic try and error thing. I play with Put Read Line but I don’t use it if that makes any sense. Try to get a feeling for slopes, tempo and the break. Go wild und over read it. That’s part of the process.
When I see a heavy break putting line, I know to 95% that I'm not gonna trust this and hit more tempo und less break. If you are focused and try to see the put in your mind, you'll develop a strong feel for the putting.
This game needs a few fixes but is hella fun & content wise more entertaining than 2K in the long term. I really enjoy it things only will get better
Me too, I never know how much it’s gonna roll
You're a legend.
Great Videos
how do u get that little black line marker on your swing meter? Im on xbox and I dont see it! Thx!
Couldn’t you also test this through the full shot arc setting? This would theoretically eliminate the swing all together and just give you the numbers on perfect perfect
When picking custom holes on a course, if you click "select all" initially it will deselect all.
Off topic but curious to get folks take on the accuracy of the analog swing. Meaning, the actual pulling down then up on the analog and how the accuracy meter displays the results.
I'm average at best on PGA 2K, but I do use TGC settings which have many of the aids turned off.
But on EA on Hard swing difficulty, virtually every swing I ever do is perfectly straight based on the down/up on the analog. It seems way too easy. And that is with my created player that I just started with.
Another part of that, if my "up" on the analog is fast or slow, it'll miss left or right on 2k. But that really doesn't happen on EA either. Everything is straight, it's not enjoyable right now.
Man how do you bring the club back so smooth, mine goes so dang fast I almost always over swing? Thank you
How are you getting that black marker on the swing arc?
My swing arc doesn't look like yours. I don't have a target power on the back side at the top. I just have an arc and if I go past the end it turns that part red. Do I have a setting that is different?
What about side and cross winds? Any formula for that? I'm struggling in Tour mode
Needing help now mostly with pitch shots from like 70-90 yards. Everything dunking short and rolling back off the green. Thanks! Lol
I just don't pitch, unless I'm on the green and need to avoid a really bad green slope between me and the hole. I use a runner or lay up at around 100 yds for the wedge approach.
Ok cool and thanks!@@199127marshall
Hey thanks for the videos I was looking at your screen for EA sports PGA tour and I noticed were it says competitive my game does not show that why is that let me know I appreciate it
For solo players like me gold coins are really hard to come by and thus nearly impossible to buy specs. Tournaments do provide more but are not my cup of tea and you have to be good
I know what you mean. Do they even grant reward points in the single player campaign? I know the do for challenges and online tournaments…
In the 'online game ' I was getting ready to putt , the next thing we were on the next tee and I was 1 down . Is that a fault in the game or is there another reason for that to happen????????????
When is the Putting edition coming out? Liked your vlog on the Challenges. Where are practicing hit the right swing release?
My 3 tips video is out. Putting I am awaiting for a putting grid patch before I release it
Thanks
What about cross winds? Also can you please do a video on sticking shots? Reducing bounce or roll, increasing etc. love your videos, best on TH-cam
I came here to ask that exact same question. Would be nice to learn how much crosswind bleeds distance. Other than that… excellent info
Will do. Just didn't want to info overload one video
big help
MERCI MON GARS
great video but i'm a little confused on 12:17, the hole is shown to be 8 ft down and you said it's 11. was this a mistake or was I missing something? very helpful regardless, thanks
Yeah, I was going off the arrow of where I wanted to land it. 8 ft is correct. The extra yard is part of why I went just over the flag
In the last part of the video, I'm trying to get my head around where you got that the hole is playing 11ft down as its states 8ft down. Am I missing something? Videos are super handy, though! Helped me a lot!
It's 8 ft. I was going off where the marker was. That's why the ball went slightly past
Argh right ok 👍 super handy vid though, thank you 😊
Do they not have a driving range?
Can anyone tell me why we can’t buy a physical copy of this game in Australia?
This game is 100x better if you turn off the ball trails and shot arc marker and all that crap. I don't use the grid on the green either, it doesn't even work properly. Use the white bar that shows the read from your ball to the hole when putting. Then use broadcast camera while putting as well, you can get some TV like shots as your ball is rolling toward the hole on the green. improves the game so much and it also looks better.
People who aren’t great at the game need that stuff on
Why do all your shots end up on the point with backspin? Especially in my drive shots on the green, my balls become too fast after the impact and then run too far!?
One quick question that I don't think I ever hear answered. Granted, the answer is probably obvious, but being a computer game it is based on how they coded it - not what it real lol.
When dealing with wind, is distance gain/loss based on the raw number *regardless* of direction? or does it use the component? For example, if it is a 20 mph wind in your face, then you have to account for all 20. But if it is 20 mph exactly 45 degrees, then you are only getting 10 in your face. Do you use the 10, or the full 20? Thanks :)
cross winds I usually only do half of the wind calculations. I only gave into and behind, but i will cover cross winds later
Great video - Have you uploaded a putting guide yet?
th-cam.com/video/ircCGD14CXU/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the video I’m going to try it out. Question where do you find the daily reward at? Thanks!
If you have a reward, a tab will appear between quest and settings
@@MidKnightYT ok thanks. Your tips have helped me in my game I appreciate it🤣 question I completed three challenges on pga coaching but I didn’t get any xp points. How does this work? Thank you
@@larryventresco7797 the challenges were glitched for a bit. You might have to wait until the next day for the rewards tab to pop. Hopefully EA will continue to keep working on the bugs.
👍
This video was awesome thanks so much @midknight
I need some help understanding the backswing and the whole speed system. Any recommendations anyone? Loving the PGA community so far btw I am so used to toxic gaming communities haha
Check my 3 tips video
@@MidKnightYT will do right now thanks was just watching your vid on difficulty
Should one use these calculations on every shot or just ones with significant wind or elevation change.
Any full standard shot. Different shot types will change ball flight
Putting is SO CONFUSING! Many puts are not reading right - the grid will show fast lines in one direction which should mean a fast sharp break - but nope my put will barely break or go straight (and that is just one of many examples). Loving the game, but this needs to be fixed ASAP.
How do you determine how far each shot will roll. Following your tips I can get the ball to hit near the pin but it rolls for days
Depends on the wind usually give it 5 yards unless into the wind
First
Does wind matter when it’s less than 100 yds? I’ve played some games where it doesn’t matter at close distances.
Also, in tournaments what does S Rank mean(I’ve seen it anywhere from 0 to 4170)?
Not as much for sure because of lower flighted shots
@@MidKnightYT Right on. I had also asked about S Rank in tournaments, do you know what this is(some kind of number from 0 to 4000’s)?
Can you win the masters as a amateur? It seems like it does everything it can do to cause a bad hit
Yes
Wil you please tell me why the blue line disappears when I’m playing against someone? Thanks 🙏
The arc line?
@@MidKnightYT yes
Maybe you can help me? My career mode, I’m doing quick tourneys and my AI always starts me at like +2 or +4 so I’m out of it before I begin. Any way to change that? I’m a 78 in career
You need your overall to get higher.
@@MidKnightYT I’m in the amateur series though.. :( everyone else is like -7
What is the best and flattest hole to map your distances????
Basically a make shift driving range?
I use the tpc Southwind par 3s
Skip to 7:37 for the actual calculations... 😑
Confused :-/ Hole plays -11ft down? Looking at the flag stick marker 157/-8 = 154Y. True, you end up with a +1Y difference. **Just making sure my 7 decade old eyes are working properly; or, my mind. ~ Thanks ~
You're correct. I was looking at the ticker and not the stick. Still only 1 yard difference
Wish I could turn the post shot animations off.
I ver much agree. Not sure if it’s hiding loading time(shouldn’t be on the PS5 anyway), but looking at the same animations over and over can get old. But EA golf games have always showed such things.
I have no idea what I am doing wrong my scores are still horrible
Bro, come backup with your golfing videos!
Coming back soon. 2 weeks
@@MidKnightYTyou have no clue how excited I am to hear this. You have made me almost go from quitting the game to becoming a beast. I really appreciate all of your videos.
Keep trying to follow the guide, but I'm distracted by Nelly's hair.
Hahaha
I Made ranked and got XP for the first two times I did the 4 hole Tourneys, now lots of people are getting 6 to 4 under and now I can not rank at all, how are these people getting 6 under? LOL
10 mph = 10 yards ?
Yes
approach is my issue
None of this makes sense I’ve literally used this tutorial and I either over shoot or under shoot every hole
First time viewer. Unfortunately 4 min in and I already lost interest trying to get to the point. I still had not heard the vid topic. Don't mean to be a jerk. Just giving feedback.
There are time breaks....... skip to the results if you just want the answers. But I appreciate the kind response and feedback
Just honest opinion do you think ea is better than 2k I think it's too easy
No doubt. Haven't even thought about 2k23 since ea came out
I’m 7 minutes into this fucking video and haven’t heard a single thing useful.
Dude this is a golf game not mathematics. Why are you trying to cheat the game. You take the fun out of the game doing all this 😂😂🤦
Pretty sure real golf is also mathematics...........
@@MidKnightYT Dude it’s a game it’s not real life. Have fun with it. Why does everyone have to be so analytical with games. Take the fun out of it. It’s like people who buy controllers that are rigged so you swing perfect every time.
@@elvisp2684 people like to play to be more feel players, other like to be more exact. I put out videos to give people options
@@MidKnightYT the math helps bro, don't listen to this nonsense. I appreciate the video.
Was using this info to my advantage and got a heartbeat approach shot on a par 4. Thanks for helping people out. If you had a better mic you’d have a real pro setup man. Great work regardless!
Thanks
