`Xbox 360 Kinect® Sensor, and accessory manuals for important safety and health
`information.www.xbox.com/support.
`
`Important Health Warning: Photosensitive Seizures
`
`A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to
`certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in
`video games. Even people with no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an
`undiagnosed condition that can cause “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while
`watching video games. Symptoms can include light-headedness, altered vision,
`eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion,
`momentary loss of awareness, and loss of consciousness or convulsions that can
`lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop
`playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms.
`Parents, watch for or ask children about these symptoms— children and teenagers
`are more likely to experience these seizures. The risk may be reduced by being
`farther from the screen; using a smaller screen; playing in a well-lit room, and not
`playing when drowsy or fatigued. If you or any relatives have a history of seizures or
`epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.

`
`Swing
`You have complete control over shaping all your shots with the swing system in
`Tiger Woods PGA TOUR ® 14. Move  to determine your backswing, and then move  to
`follow through and complete your swing. Follow the swing arc to know when to start
`your follow through. The speed of your movement, your aim, and the length of backswing
`determines the outcome of your shot. You can also designate swing controls to under
`Gameplay Settings if that’s more comfortable; this automatically sets the Strike Meter to .
`At higher difficulty levels, you must execute draws and fades by swinging your club diagonally
`(,  or , ). The results are more sensitive to mishits.
`Before you swing, notice the Swing Plane is displayed in the lower left hand corner. This Swing
`Plane is the path you should follow with the swing stick for your backswing and follow through.
`If it displays at an angle, then you should swing diagonally. If you are off plane, the club head
`arc will not align with the swing arc and the controller will vibrate. When you are off plane, you
`will mishit the ball and result in an undesirable shot.
`Swing Speed
`Play close attention to the pace of your swing. Adjust the speed of both the backswing and
`follow through to perfect the timing of your swing. You can extend your backswing and speed
`up the forward swing to give an extra power boost. Look to the Swing Feedback Heads Up
`Display (HUD) in the lower-left corner of the screen after your swing for an analysis of your
`backswing and follow through.
`pre-Swing Stance
`Adjust your stance to create unique and dynamic shots. Move / to open your stance and
`add fade right or draw left for right-handed golfers and fade left or draw right for left-handed
`golfers. Move / to move the ball forward or backward in your stance, which alters the
`height of the ball's trajectory.

`Strike Meter
`addrEss Controls
`
`Utilize the Strike Meter to dig the ball out of bunkers or to pick the ball cleanly when it’s in the
`rough. Fat or thin hits are not favorable and affect the shot power and ball trajectory. You can
`
`modify where the clubface strikes the ball with the  to gain greater control over the height
`
`of your shot or to move your club left/right on the ball. New this year, you also need to adjust
`left or right on the Strike Meter to account for sidehill lies. Alter your contact to suit the current
`
`circumstances. Hit under the ball to pop it up high, or hit near the top of the ball for a low shot.
`
`putting
`After you have lined up the putt with , move  to draw back the putter and move  to
`follow through. Follow the swing meter along the ground to know when to start your follow
`through. The speed of your movement, your aim, and the length of backswing determine the
`outcome of your putt.
`For extra help, press  to enable the putt preview feature. It displays the path of the ball
`based on your current setup.
`iMproved chipping
`When your golfer is within chipping range, an arc meter displays along the ground, just as it
`does when putting.

`gaMeplay SettingS
`Before you step foot on the course, select SETTINGS from the main menu, and then
`GAMEPLAY SETTINGS to adjust the Difficulty Level. You can toggle the Swing Stick to swing
`with or ; the opposite stick is then used to control the Strike Meter. You can also create
`a Custom Difficulty by adjusting Gameplay Settings individually.
`difficulty levelS
`There are five Difficulty Levels: Amateur, Pro, Tour Pro, Tournament, and Simulation. Each
`Difficulty Level gives you a preset combination of the Swing Difficulty, Swing Meter, Ball Spin,
`Putt Preview, Green Grid, Strike Meter, Zoom to Aim, Wind Display, and Shot Shaping settings.
`The higher your difficulty, the more challenging it is to score under par. Adjusting the difficulty
`also modifies the Status Points and Experience Points (XP) multiplier. The more difficult the
`settings, the more you will earn.
`SiMulation difficulty
`The new Simulation Difficulty gives experienced players an immersive challenge. Simulation
`Difficulty sets Swing Difficulty to expert and turns off the Swing Meter, Green Grid, and Zoom to
`Aim. By eliminating these particular HUD features, Simulation Difficulty focuses your attention
`on the green for the most realistic golfing experience possible. You are also required to perform
`fade and draw shots off the tee when swing difficulty is set to Simulation.
`preSentation SettingS
`Presentation Settings give you more control over how you view the green and the way the
`game is presented. Here, you can adjust Aiming Style, Ball Flight Camera (New Broadcast
`Cameras), Switch to Spin, First-Person Camera (when playing with Kinect), Ball Flight Trail,
`Putting Trail, Animations, Auto-Replay, Flag Indicator, Speed Play, and Metric. These settings
`let you play a speedy match with few animations or a more cinematic game that mimics being
`at a real tournament.
`
`Saving
`The autosave feature saves your progress after every hole. When playing the Career mode, use
`the Mid Round Save system to save in the middle of an event. When you access your career
`from the main menu, you can return to the beginning of the last hole you played or restart the
`round. If you’ve finished an event, you can move to the next one.
