EZ Swing

  Ok, maybe I'm missing the obvious (and it wouldn't be the first time for THAT) but every few swings I take with the EZ Swing bar (or whatever it's called) goes WAAAAYYY off from where I've pointed the path marker.  Am I doing something wrong when I release to point it in a different direction or something like that?  It's driving me crazy!  And I could be alone here but I wish using that was an OPTION, not a definite change.  Or is there someway to disable it and go back to the other bar?  A little here please...thanks.

  Signed,

  It's not you but the clubs - there's nothing you might do wrong with them, except for using them.

  These clubs are easy to play but you pay with the total lack of precision. Once in a while I use them and I'm sure to have a 3-putt from 4 ft on such rounds!

  Change to the Starter clubs in your inventory, this will improve your game!

  You might also consider to get two short custom wedges, Ping or up, for further improvement.

  Have fun!

  EZ-Swing.  Sounds pretty nice doesn't it?  Like they're gonna make the game easier for you.  Just aim, set the power, release and watch the ball zero in on the hole.

  Except that 99% of the time the ball will go anywhere but where you want it to.

  Ditch those pieces of crap, do what Alosso says and equip the starter clubs.  Hell, try hitting the ball with your wanger if you like, it'll be better than fecking EZ-Shyte.

  So am I to understand that you won't get the EZ Swing crap at all if you upgrade the clubs?  I've been saving up a little to get the Ping G20's and I'm there now, I've just yet to pull the string on 'em but maybe I just should go ahead and do it sooner than later...?

  Thanks for the responses, folks.  Much appreciated.

  Even the beginners are better than the EZ Swings.

  Not necessarily - upgrade.

  There are better clubs in your possession - "Starters". Look into your inventory and move them over the SWING clubs in your bag.

  Free of charge, just for you ;)

  Edit: But yes, there is no EZ Swing with custom clubs.

  AH!  I see.  I must have reverted to the EZ Swing clubs (and not the Starter's that I think I was playing) after I returned the G20's that I rented over Master's Weekend.  That's why I wasn't seeing the EZ Swing bar.  I didn't realize I had two sets in my inventory.  I'll probably end up with the G20's soon anyway but it's all clear now.

  And free to me - you're too good to me, alosso!  ;)

  Somebody should run an EZ Swing clubs tournament. Now that would be funny :)
