PGA TOUR 2K21 - The HARDEST Settings (Legend Difficulty)

[@SaatvikGuruprasad]

That meltdown after the missed Bird on 17 though! xD Great round upto that point !

[@TheApexHound]

Hahaha I lost the plot

[@mattmarshall3277]

You should do this challenge every week. See how low you can go on the hardest settings.

[@TheApexHound]

Might be a plan lol, Eventually get the trophy

[@mattmarshall3277]

Reminds me of when you dominated the old McIlroy game

[@GrandRoyal44]

This is a good idea!

[@TheRenster500]

Great round! I find getting rid of the metre to be really beneficial, and it looks better. Seeing this without grids and how well you performed makes me wanna try!

[@TheApexHound]

I wish I would have turned the meter off honestly

[@BPH29]

Damn beautiful round until that 16th.. you have to look at the wind! Just that slight push carried it into the drink.. legend difficulty looks like a blast though!

[@TheApexHound]

Yeah big mistake

[@dennis2966]

OK I don't get it - I've tried changing to Legend Difficulty 4 times now, and my Distance Control does NOT stay on. I don't understand why yours did. Wish mine would.

[@jameshamblin3964]

What a great effort. I’m just about to try for the true legend trophy. You have gave me he confidence to go for it

[@TheApexHound]

Best of luck!

[@sgf7649]

One trick for putting - there is no "tempo" so you can move the stick back as slow as possible to make timing easier 👍

[@thomassachen5624]

someone says this every week. several times he's said that he understands this and has tried it but feels more comfortable doing it the way he does.

[@sgf7649]

@@thomassachen5624 yeah... Sorry, I don't watch all his videos. Comment wasn't just for him but anyone else looking through the comments. I can't believe it's easier to do it when putting when the cursor moves a million miles an hour vs creeping it back nice and steadily - at least you're almost guaranteed to get it right vs smashing it past, but hey... 🤷‍♂️

[@JamesLinx]

Awesome video can’t believe how good you did until the very last hole!!

[@TheApexHound]

Me neither honestly haha

[@paulbarrie17]

How do you get the distance meter on on Legend difficulty? As soon as I change any individual setting it changes difficulty to custom. I'm finding this next to impossible without a distance meter.

[@TheApexHound]

It'll be custom no matter what, just make sure the swing difficulty stays legend mate

[@paulbarrie17]

@@TheApexHound I thought the whole idea of the trophy was that you have to do it on Legend difficulty. Has anyone got the trophy with custom difficulty settings? I just shot +1 on full legend difficulty. Had a 30 footer I needed to hole on the 18th for eagle but missed by miles and ended with a birdie.

[@forzaracer1428]

21:48 lol I feel your pain and I haven’t even attempted it yet. One more rival to beat then onto the final legendary achievement.

[@TCade9]

Hell yeah man keep up the good work loving this years game finally got my first ace on the short par 4 at McCory Shores. Can’t wait to see the reaction when you hit one!

[@TheApexHound]

Nice man, that’s awesome!

[@jasononey]

pretty amazing how well you can see the green rise/fall in this game.

[@bhunts2539]

I’d love a putting tutorial. The way you read the greens is amazing

[@heavyglassglass]

just taap it in

[@kodasrevenge6643]

I don’t really understand how your supposed to read greens without green grid. I mean you can’t see the break on a tv screen. Do you just have to memorize every green?

[@09blackcobaltss]

Man you were playing so great before that par 5 near the end. I think you will get that under par if you do it again.

[@mwc2k]

Very surprised you have the power bar meter on legendary because last time I played on legendary it was automatically off.

[@IMrRealism]

You should play on this difficulty all the time. Its cool seeing you hit the putts without the terrain grid to tell you how much it breaks. Plus until the last 2 holes you were playing pretty much just as well as you do on your regular settings. Either way nice job, you'll get that trophy soon.

[@jaja8951]

First of all Friend great video. Loved the way u went right through the game on Legend and I didn’t know how difficult the Legend level was 😳 I like to complete games and go all the way through and YES…. a bit trophy hunting but the trophy for this ‘complete a round on par on Legend difficulty or worse’ is a COMPLETE! joke. The developers for 2k21 should be hung up by their Buster Browns as they said in the film ‘Jaws’. A Bronze 😳 Chipping in from a bunker is a bronze too it should be like a hole in one a GOLD. I hope they visit ur channel and read this post Cheers friend keep up the good work 👍😀

[@vidya_gaming_dad]

I dont know how you read the greens without the grid. I cant even do it with the grid.

[@timferrell2483]

How do you get the meter on legend diff..my preset is off

[@tahlievickers3821]

I feel so bad watching you. Great video :)

[@nickysreviews2468]

Can't wait for this good luck!

[@TheApexHound]

Thanks!

[@djdoubled6970]

How do swing on this difficultly and mess up? Would be great help if someone explained how to play on Legend difficultly

[@Finbar79]

Really unlucky dude. I’m playing on reasonably easy difficulty as I want the achievements but will be bumping it up on the following seasons. I wouldn’t even attempt the legendary!! Loving these videos keep them up!! 👍👍

[@TheApexHound]

Good luck! Thanks man

[@kissmybass663]

Bro that was some great golf until the end, just very hard. Shows how good you are. Keep up the awesome work on this game

[@TheApexHound]

Thank you 👍

[@xMAXPROOFX]

Besides the water shots this was great. Those water shots were a back breaker lol

[@itzDreamszy]

Apex you can pull back the putter as slow as you want. I notice you putt fast when there is zero reason to. There is no required tempo in putting so bring it back slow and make sure to hit the right distance

[@TheApexHound]

I always seem to fuck up when I pull it back slow for some reason lol

[@itzDreamszy]

@@TheApexHound 😂. Alright then you do you. I find it so much easier to bring it back super slow

[@shumikonkart3328]

How to play online? I press Quick match but it show - 1 of 4 players everytime(

[@brodycarcella4047]

Ive followed this series and I was like, Id hit like 20 under on tiger woods on the hardest settings, how hard could this game be?? This game is noooooo joke lol. I am still learning it but damnnnn is it hard to get constistent downswing timing. Then once i get that down, my putting goes to shit lol. U sir, are a 2k21 god among men hahaha cheers to u

[@TheApexHound]

Hahaha cheers mate, Takes some getting used to

[@iamjustgooder384]

Hey Turloch, big fan. Been watching for you about a year now. What’s your irl golf handicap lol keep up the good vidsss

It's 10 lol cheers mate

YEET BOI THE 35TH VIEW. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. I FINISHED THE WIPEOUT OMEGA COLLECTION VIDEOS TWICE. I WATCHED THE WHOLE THING TWICEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@nickysreviews2468]

Such a shame that. I was so impressed with that play. 16th was a bugger after such a good drive. Keep up the good work

[@TheApexHound]

Yeah big mistake there tbf

[@the12thman63]

How the hell are you keeping your swing line so straight ? It’s as straight as an arrow every time. Even on that level. Do you have some sort of modified analogue. I been playing non stop since it came out. Rattlers through a full pga tour switching up the difficulty. Can’t get it no where near that straight.

[@TheApexHound]

No modifications just standard PS4 controller😂

[@the12thman63]

TheApexHound no offence mate but a just can’t fathom how you. An get that line that straight every time. I’m Baffled at that. 😂seriously scratching my head

[@the12thman63]

Can

[@kevinhuggins9994]

Watching you play this, makes me wanna go down and make the purchase.. CANT BELIEVE THE LAST HOLE AND YOU THREW IT AWAY !!!!! Lol!!

[@TheApexHound]

I really did haha you should get it!

[@Ruediger_Hasenpusch]

You played awesome until the bitter end came! Head up Turloch 👊🏻

[@TheApexHound]

Cheers mate!

[@byrnez2755]

So... I experienced something similar to you. I am at the Korn Ferry Tour stage. 5 tournaments in. After 4 tournaments, this Belgian guy Jordan Lambert had 2 wins. After the 5th tournament, it showed he only had 1 win. So, unless dude signed an incorrect scorecard or they did a piss test and the guy was juiced.... (lol)... there is something wrong with career mode and the points tally. On a positive note: My first ace. The 18th at the Lunenburg Championship. Had to save that highlight! lol

[@TheApexHound]

Damn haha yeah there's definitely some little bugs here and there, Send us the ace on insta or twitter

[@Blade4Life76]

Dude. Well played an so envious as played both rnds of your society event an ended up +37. Putting is too brutal, need putting bar lol.

[@TheApexHound]

LOL just need to get used to how far each stroke goes, Practice swings with the putter help for sure

[@davidisrael8537]

You were in control of that for so long and then the famous TheApexHound choke at the end lol. You actually did quite well given the hardest difficulty level.

[@smudge22-61]

You played really well on Legendary. Nice one.

[@TheApexHound]

Cheers

[@douglasweston2742]

Hi Turloch Good round man. Although lets face it, having the power bar on for every shot makes things a lot easier right? I'm on pro and dont have them on, and that is difficult !! It would be harder again without the power bar. Give it a go ? Anway good round all the same. Cheers Doug

[@TheApexHound]

Yeah would be fun without!

[@ericswanson5672]

Any chance you'd do a series playing TGCTours on this game?

[@TheApexHound]

Possible!

[@chiggsytube]

Ok I can't resist: 4:17 "We could lose it for a second and end up having a SHOCKER at the hole." I hope it's comfy in hell, because that had me ded.

[@RobertJohnson-mn3br]

Shouldn’t the bar at bottom of the screen be off? I’ll have to check on this.

[@JC-2K]

That would be overkill

[@RobertJohnson-mn3br]

THE KING JC king JC, I’m looking for your opinion here, how do you feel about the bar they instituted this year?

[@joshualbh]

If it makes you feel any better, I made 8 on the 18th hole at TPC sawgrass when I did play there last year (real golf)

[@christopherfreeman911]

I'm confused. I calibrated my shot. When I'm playing on pro difficulty and hit a perfect shot the ball goes way right with no wind. The swinging is just to inconsistent. I practiced for two hours swing exactly the same everytime, but different results everytime. Also, ive noticed that the blue line will be on the right side but then the ball will go way left. I'm not trying to be a downer im just confused I wanna like this game but the swinging is not making sense to me. And yes I've played the tiger woods games and had no issues. Am I doing something wrong? Did I waste 60 bucks?

[@tylercleveland635]

Other things that could affect this is coming strait down and strait up with the swing and also the lie of the ball. If it is below your feet, it'll go right. If it is above your feet it'll go left. Swing path, timing, and lie is all I can think of though.

[@lewie8487]

After the recent update fixed the left analog swing I'm loving this game. Come on Apex, you can do it! 👍

[@TheApexHound]

Good to know!

[@ricksgamemisc10]

Through 6 when I paused to type this. I don't care what happens the rest of the round, this is really impressive. Wow. I'd be a good 10-12 over *at least* by that point ... if I even kept going through 6 lol.

[@amandasteele1610]

Shame, you really deserved better! Not so hyper either. Great to watch.

[@flyinhawaiianz4058]

Lmao 😂 bro you played a great round. Just like in real golf, can be doing pretty good then have a blow up hole out of nowhere 🤙🏼 keep up the great work my brotha. When’s the next society event ?

[@TheApexHound]

Next society event will be starting start of next week I think!

[@flyinhawaiianz4058]

TheApexHound looking forward to it 🤙🏼

[@ddogg14]

golf is such a mental game

[@rodroller6634]

After watching several of these it’s makes me sad to say my favorite vids are the ones your the maddest at. Watching you self destruct is hilarious. I’m not a good person.

[@TheApexHound]

hahaha you're not alone

[@LucasEatWorld]

Damn, you played a hell of a round until that final hole. Just so you're aware, you only need to shoot E par for the trophy, not under par. So I hope that didn't play into your strategy on the final hole thinking you had to birdie. It's a fun, but really challenging difficulty. Haven't shot better than +5 myself. I need to give it another go.

[@TheApexHound]

I did think I had to birdie, Welp haha thanks man

[@trottheblackdog]

I'm noticing among a lot of youtubers inconsistent wind calls.

[@buddycider3670]

How do you get rid of the damn blue tracer??

[@TheApexHound]

Display

[@buddycider3670]

Man I can’t figure it out. I turned off everything and the only thing was left was the damn blue line.

[@moosegaming1014]

How the hell do I change my bag, I wanna get rid of the 5 wood and do 4-pw with a 3 hybrid. Other than that great vid, keep it up

[@TheApexHound]

Just switch the clubs out in my player section

[@PiqueBlind3r]

theapexhound can you show a tutorial on how to change your clubs please i also want to get rid of some woods and use irons

[@torerikarntzen2653]

Wow! That was some impressive stuff right there Apex! I think you did great! A little unfocused on the last holes, but you did great on the green. I mean, you had no grid to assist you, but still managed to do some great putting. Maybe you play better without the grid? LOL. Perhaps the grid in some cases might even confuse you. XD Anyway, I think you earned that trophy! But again, you never seem to have the margins on your side. Fantastic job Apex! :)

[@TheApexHound]

I’ll get it next time ;)

[@chitownhooligan3785]

Well played, but you need to turn off the putting meter. That should only be an option for the easiest difficulty settings. Let's see it!

[@RobertJohnson-mn3br]

Ascot you are correct. I believe that o. Legendary that there’s no way that bar should be there. I’m checking this later for sure. It’s impossible to putt without it only because the idiots at 2K decided to completely change the basic measurements when no bar present.

You should almost always account for fast shots. You tend to hit more fast than not

[@Dinkdoo96]

Make the society settings like this, all book with bar at bottom

[@stevep927]

On 16 the play on your second shot was to aim left and play a fade to minimize your chances of going in the water. Golf strategy 101
