I told myself in college, ‘Hey, if I’m not seeing improvement in my game, I’m going to do something else.’ But every year I just seem to get a little bit better, a little bit better, a little bit better. I'm on normal swing speed now.“A lot of people told me that I couldn’t make it,” Henson said. For me though reducing the swing speed solved this. When I first started playing the game I selected the fastest swing speed I think, and with that setting I found I did need to flick it to not get slows too, and like you this felt uncontrolled and wrong to me.

All were at max distance with the slow not exceeding the overswing. I really concentrated on this challenge and I am certain that I hit three shots that should have qualified. You need to know all the mechanics to step up your game, such as learning how to spin the ball in PGA Tour 2K23. It’s not just about mindlessly hitting the ball directly at the flag on every shot.
