Does anyone know how to get there skills up higher?

Play the tiger challenges or do training.

if you are trying to get your stats up quickly, do the tiger challenge. even if you do not win your "potential skill" goes up. i am gonna finish the tiger challenge tonight, it is pretty easy cept for a few of them.
all my stats are at 96% and bonus items equiped.

also upgrade your equipment that adds to the potenital and bonuses. when you beat the golfers in the tiger challenge it will move a little more.

I'm having difficulty passing all the Tiger Challenges... But I think it's because I'm doing it on the hardest difficulty. But I'm loving it. It's all so much more realistic. Makes me play safer, and there's more of a risk/reward for challenging shots.

Very difficult, sure... I can't seem to get past the third tier. Yoshi is giving me trouble! But at least I usually am only a couple behind in the end... I'll get it, I'm sure. I can't imagine playing any other way, it would feel like cheating.

Who can put sideways spin on the ball in midflight when you see where it's headed toward the pin? Unrealistic.

Im having a problem with my guys driving distance. My guy can only drive 280 yds max with any driver(Im currently using 8 degree driver). I have 100% skill on everything and the right combination of gear to get 110%. Thinking maybe there was something im missing, i started playing the season mode. Ive got the fedex cup 5 times so i know thats not it. Can anyone shed some light on my situation???please keep in mind i have beaten ALL the tiger challenges and ALL the legend training challenges.

Do you use power boost when you take a swing (press a really quickly during backswing) Seems too obvious but maybe that's the problem!!!
