Wow. I'm super impressed with how accurately this game reminds me of how terrible I am at golf. I have a natural fade that tends to bite me in the ass and oh yeah, it's there. I can hit solid irons and that's pretty much on par, then I 3 putt for a double bogey or worse. This game demonstrates all of my short comings in frightening realism. I've played 18 holes twice, both a little rushed as I had other things to do, but this is an undeniably impressive experience so far. It's super satisfying to finally hit a decent drive or sink a long putt, just like the rare occasions I do so IRL. I also get to beat the %$# out of the bag and throw my clubs after I shank a shot just like IRL too.

If you have any interest in the game of golf, you have to at least give it a whirl. It's not the real thing, but it's a heck of a lot closer than I ever expected it to be, even in EA.

The one gripe is the performance. I have a beefy system with a core i7, 16gb ram, and a gtx1080 and can't bump up from the lowest settings without stutter. When it comes to graphics it's closer to Euro Truck Simulator than Elite Dangerous so its a tad frustrating to have such performance issues but it's so damn fun to play it's easy to look passed it. Excuse me while I go hit another 119.
