Punch shot??

[doost]

Am I missing something or can you not do a simple punch to get out of danger?

[Boo Radley]

I noticed this too. Very odd, maybe just deloft with the true shot manually

[Andy]

you have to use the true shot sliders to get a punch shot now

[Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse]

I like the ability to switch to it though without having to deloft your club

[Panic]

Take a knee,, Punch shot matters!!

No Punch Mechanic

What kind of golf game has a lob and splash shot, which btw is totally redundant, but not a punch or knock-down? If you want to be a PGA style game at least implement shot types that real players actually use.

HB Studios aren't really known for their golf prowess. They've been recycling the same game for four iterations now.

You use the LB and then push both sides all the way up and it will be super low when you shoot. learn dah game drrrrr

I hear ya but it's literally the only game they make. Hopefully after the success of this title they can afford to hire a consultant that has less than a 15 handicap.

It's a good game, just thought they would have evolved more after this many iterations.

You obviously haven't tried it because it does nothing for lowering the trajectory or the spin for that matter.

I literally did it today.. you just have to use a 5 iron since it already is the low trajectory. Then you do what i said and you will PUNCH it out low and hard.

Punch Shot??

As someone who plays alot of golf when i am under a tree it is a simple back of the stance short swing to knock a 4 iron about 150 yards... there are many shot styles that i find missing in this game.

[Andy]

you have to use the true shot system now to get the punch style shot

[doost]

Best bet is to go to the range in the game and experiment. I wish there was a punch option too but if you play around with hitting the top of the ball at different speeds with different clubs you'll find one that works. I have better success with the long irons then hybrids.

I'd rather have punch than splash.

[Andy]

splash is a great shot for sand traps ...true shot does a good enough punch shot to get you out of trouble
