Solid content as always @Respawn Sports, but very much worth mentioning - The hunt for a full legendary bag is going to take a long time and playing at a disadvantage by saving all fittings until the best is available isn't really advised for anyone who is not an uber-hardcore/competitive player. If you are a casual or even semi-hardcore player the odds of achieving a full legendary bag, with all "custom legendary" fittings is highly unlikely without really dedicating many many hours to the cause. The benefits of equipping fittings as you play are tremendous at the rare/epic level. They can give you an edge in competition and make the game more enjoyable overall. If you are trying to min-max and are willing to grind at the base level for an extended period of time, this is definitely good advice. If you are looking to enjoy the game and min/max'ing isn't the goal, I would suggest you make use of any Fitting that you feel will provide value to you on the course.
Good advice Craig. I always take it through the lens of myself being uber hardcore, but you are absolutley right, equip the fittings as you go to achieve a more powerful golfer as you go. Pinning this because it is very solid advice.

This is a VERY useful video. I've been playing 2K3 on the PC for a couple of months and enjoying it, but honestly I had never fully understood the Fittings, nor the Skill Tree. I was blindly just spending all my points. Thanks a lot, Respawn.
The first video of a series of tutorials that will be coming to the channel. I will go over the game, the basics of mechanics, some advanced mechanics (wind, elevation, putting, etc) and everything in between. Thanks for the continued support on the channel. This has easily been the best month of my content career. Appreciate you all.
Great info, man. My question pertains to sponsors: how do I raise the tier levels of my current sponsors? I understand using gear, equipment, etc., but is it truly based on performance? For example, 2K is my ball sponsor but the tier level does not advance even though I’m using their balls. The same thing is happening with my Nike sponsorship. Any thoughts?
Man, thank you for this video!! I bought this after playing 2k21 religiously but ti bought this awhile back and turned it off immediately because the UI , menus, were confusing as heck. Thank you for this. Great job!
Nice content, I haven't even look yet at the fittings, over me head at the moment. This is going to help for sure. I'm struggling with the greens/putting but enjoying the game. Cheers 👍👍
FYI for the tier 7 skills, you actually do get all 3 bonuses if you get level 3 on those skills. I just tested it with every club, the transition and timing bonuses are still there even if you level up past level 1 and 2.
Thank you so much for that video. I have just started playing the game and I had no idea how the fitting works. So now I want to trade up to legendary to get the best clubs. I also have no idea how the skills works, so that is going to be my next video. Keep up the good work
Hello, thank you so much for this video. I previously played a lot of pga2k21 but this has been a huge help with breakdown of attributes and advice on the career mode. Keep up the amazing work
I had 2k21 on the Switch, I did not play it much. Then I refound my interest in actual golf. So to keep the feeling going I bought a PS5 and started playing 2K23 last week. Ive already got on the Kornferry Tour and now have sponsors! how cool!
Great Video. I have only played a handful of rounds so far. The thing that I find the hardest is the short chip shots, no matter how I swing I get fast, very fast or a non swing. I'm not sure why.
Thanks for vid man 👍🏻 This was legitimately helpful. I played a tiny bit of 2k21 but want to really sink my teeth into this one so I’m so glad I came across this vid.
I should've watched this before I started playing a week ago...😂 There's a lot I don't understand. Definitely changing 4 rds to 1 in career to boost payouts..
Thank you very much, this was very helpful. I traded in everything I had to get a bunch of legendary fittings. Still grinding though as I need the points to apply them. At least I'm not wasting my time and there's a plan of attack.
I think we’ll see a lot of fine tuning in irons too. So maybe your 4 and 5 iron you want more power fittings and 7 8 9 you want more control and scoring attributes
Damn I wish I saw this video sooner…I didn’t know that about the fittings!!! 😮🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ I’m on my 2nd season… haven’t gotten into competition online play yet…still getting comfortable playing the game
8:00 WTF??? Why do they have to make this so complicated??? SEriously I've watched this 4 times and I'm still confused. Okay so you got these columns with the icons, but why are they separated by club type? It looks to me like you can only give a timing boost when using drivers but you have to add skills per club, and then alternate between catch-up and boost... I'm glad they put ratings in, but you need a 20 page manual just for the skills. Very bad job 2k! So how do I view my ratings and how do these "skill points" affect ratings?
I'm enjoying the game much more than 2k21 so far. The introduction of 3-click is a game-changer for me. My Logitech pad didn't work too well in the last game, and I understand it wouldn't have been allowed on TGC Tours even if I did get it working well. That wasn't a positive experience. Again, thank you for the videos. They helped me decide that '23 was worth buying, and indeed it is. It's a better game imo, and much more accessible.
thanks for the tips! great video! yeah the buying the fittings was really weird and confusing for me when i first played this game i figured it out eventually tho… i didnt know that about the upgrading the rarities by combining i thought you could just sell them i need to READ more lol 😆
Since I know I'm going to be playing this for a while I'm gonna sub to your channel. Thank you. I'm still a little confused with the VC and the skills so this video might be helpful.
I just bought the game for only 15 euro on steam and thanks for this upload dude. Haven't been playing any other golf game then WGT and I'm really excited for this game.
I just played it on beginner and played my career. Played all the tournaments and beat tiger at the end. Do I just start over and raise the difficulty? And then re challenge all the rivals again? After that is is just casual play and online challenges? I jsut have the basic version and not the premium. What do club house passes mean?
Can you do a video explaining what the opponent difficulty sliders are/do? The ones for cpu event skill deviation, round skill deviation, cpu attendance. Perhaps recommend what percentage for cpu skill based on what swing difficulty one uses, no power meter, etc. I personally have green grid, wind meter, elevation on while using legend swing. Does making the course conditions harder affect the cpu scores? If you have already done one, sorry. Love the videos you've done
thank you very much, without your help I would have quit the game for sure. iI have just reset my skill points but most of the skills are locked 🔒. I have many points but I'm forced to spend them in the first three categories, how do I unlock the others? 🙏
If I customize my fittings on lets say my driver, but I unlock another driver I think is cooler and add it to my bag, will the custom fitting stay on the new driver or would I have to do it all over again? Thanks for the awesome videos!
I dont understand this assignment of skill points and the player characteristics thing ( demon putter) of whatever its called...what's the point..it wasn't in the last game
Have fun! I try to get to as many questions as possible. If you have any about the game, let me know here or over on Twitch and I'll try to help as much as I can.
Hey man! Thanks for the video. Do you know if fittings stats apply to every game mode (i.e. casual with friends or online) or is it just applied to my career?
I really want them to go back to the swing meter on the bottom of the screen. Can hit the ball batter on 21 then I can hit it on 23. 23 is more frustrating and annoying
My problem with 2k21 was that while it's good to have so many different ways to fine-tune difficulty, sometimes too much choice can be a bad thing. For example, I never got the hang of swing timing. Fast, slow seemed to be just random to me, like what am I doing "slow", but if I turn it off it's way too easy, if I turn it on I get FIR about 12 holes if I'm lucky. We can adjust swing difficulty overall but I don't like that timing is either ON or OFF. Maybe in this new version we can do that or get a swing timing boost from those skill point thingies.
Anyone else have a glitch in the swing? I start my swing, the reticle moves a fraction and resets to the starting position and I have to remove my thumb from the stick to reset and try my swing again. This is very annoying when trying to putt.
Is anyone else having an issue with Xbox controllers. I have the game for Xbox One but it is not working correctly. As soon as the difficulty gets up to the pro level the swing stick is not working. You can make the exact same swing twice and it will say that one of them is fast and the other is slow. It is also saying that my swing plane is not in between the white lines. It shows the swing plane as either all the way to the right or all the way to the left.
My aim with this version - as with all previous ones - is to master the basic skills involved to get better at the game. I'm not interested in levelling up a massive RPG skill tree if it's just makes the game easier. I just want to get to a point where my player's abilities aren't changing and the improvements I see in score are purely about my own skills. I wonder whether that means I need to grind extremely hard early on to 'max out' my character, or just to not bother doing any character updates in the first place?

Wow!! That’s a lot of bells & whistles. Had no idea. Thanks

Awesome stuff! Thanks so much!
Thanks for the video man, I just got into 23 coming from 2k21. I was pretty lost, but this vid set me off right!
Thanks for video clears things up !
Good content. Just starting playing this again with my kids. Kudos! I'll subscribe!
thanks bro. appreciate it. helped me starting from scratch.

Thank you so much for helping a first time golfer out . I really find it calming. But the tips are A Mega Clutch
Thanks, you answered all my questions in one video. Great work!

Yeah, still trying to work out those short partials as well.
Thanks for vid man 👍🏻 This was legitimately helpful. I played a tiny bit of 2k21 but want to really sink my teeth into this one so I’m so glad I came across this vid.

I think we’ll see a lot of fine tuning in irons too. So maybe your 4 and 5 iron you want more power fittings and 7 8 9 you want more control and scoring attributes
Absolutely. I can't wait to hop into all the fine tuning of it all!
Damn I wish I saw this video sooner…I didn’t know that about the fittings!!! 😮🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
I’m on my 2nd season… haven’t gotten into competition online play yet…still getting comfortable playing the game

Glad to hear on all of the above. Thanks for watching!
I tried the 3 click and never got use to it. never got close to a good swing
Wow! Very useful video… thanks so much!
Awesome walk through of setup! I have an issue where my bag keeps resetting. Any idea how I can get my purchased clubs to stay in the bag?
This is a great video. Wondering if you know how to set up Couch play. I keep reading it's possible but can't figure out how?
So, you can only do it with guest players unfortunately. Just add a guest in when you go to a local match.
Great info…. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the video
Great information! Very helpful!
Good stuff dude
Very useful my friend! Explained well… 👏🏻
i convernet it to blues and green but everyone went towards putting , not the iron i needed it to .
Do you know why everyone keeps hitting left I can hit the ball straight and goes left when I play people online they do the same thing
How do i change my clubs in club house i want a 3iron
In stead of 5w but cant find it ?
def appreciate this video. never played a gold game in my life. straight forward video. subbed and liked.
thanks for the tips! great video! yeah the buying the fittings was really weird and confusing for me when i first played this game i figured it out eventually tho… i didnt know that about the upgrading the rarities by combining i thought you could just sell them i need to READ more lol 😆
I use the three click swing input, what does timing, swing path and transition do for me?
Very helpful video. Thanks.
Once you pay for a fitting on a club does it always stay or do you gotta re pay for it after a certain time?
you can't use driver on fairway without getting distance cut ? seems in 21 I could
Since I know I'm going to be playing this for a while I'm gonna sub to your channel. Thank you. I'm still a little confused with the VC and the skills so this video might be helpful.
do the fittings count in online ranked also? do they work in ranked?
Thank you!
Constantly hooking my tee shots off the tee left...any advice?
I just bought the game for only 15 euro on steam and thanks for this upload dude. Haven't been playing any other golf game then WGT and I'm really excited for this game.
I'm a 3 clicker and I've just found out that the 3 clickers can't get out of bunkers like the swing stickers . Why . Try it out
@MoreRespawn Can you do video to how reset a swing calibration =)
just found this video, it made my mind up to buy them game thank you
I just played it on beginner and played my career. Played all the tournaments and beat tiger at the end. Do I just start over and raise the difficulty? And then re challenge all the rivals again?

Can you please make a guide for the new two button putting. How do I read the circle when the recommended power is not displayed?
What do I do about the stutters of the game?
I play Online with a friend & we can't figure out how to play with Alternate shot's, is there a way to set that up?...

try calibrating your swing timing in the practice menu. it helped me a lot
How do i play as a different character. I want to be tiger woods
Does anyone know where “the whole nine yards” saying originated? I do, just throwing it out there.
Anyone else have a glitch in the swing? I start my swing, the reticle moves a fraction and resets to the starting position and I have to remove my thumb from the stick to reset and try my swing again. This is very annoying when trying to putt.

Please make a video on lie percentage. I do not understand what it is at all
