#HOW TO USE CONTROLLER TIGER WOODS PGA TOUR 12 PC HOW TO#
Yes, it's as complicated as it sounds, and no, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 does not do a good job of explaining how to use it. When a golfer follows through, the speed of their swing, as controlled by jamming the stick forward, contributes to the overall effect of the backswing and the distance a ball will travel. Pulling it slightly left or right leads to wider or tighter arcs which dictate the direction of the ball. Holding the backswing too long or not long enough means under/overswinging. Numerous control factors within the backswing change the trajectory of each shot.
Simple enough, but this is where things get complicated. Pulling straight down on the stick puts the player's club along that track. A handy white arc around the golfer indicates the ideal backswing form. Tiger Woods 13 demands much more on the green, fairway, or tee. In past years, accounting for the lean of the green and smacking the ball as hard as instructed guaranteed a perfect putt. Every subtle gesture during a swing affects where the ball goes, so the how and why of each shot falls square on the player's shoulders.
Pre-set shot types and shot meters don't exist anymore. Left stick movement dictates 100% of how a shot behaves. Total Swing Control is far and away the most meaningful addition to the PGA Tour series since it joined this generation of consoles.
