Thanks, that's interesting to hear. I need to think about how to make hard mode more discoverable.
I do think you can actually get good at zen mode as well, but it takes a bit of practice. Having played a lot, I can usually set up the trickshot I intended and get it most of the way there - and when it doesn't, it's usually quite funny anyway. It's definitely a steeper learning curve than DG.
I'm definitely coming round to the idea of a ghost arrow in hard mode. Your idea about a shot and a putt is also very good - perhaps that could even be the default mode..
Oh I’ve got no doubt it’s possible to get good at zen mode — just a brutal learning curve for me that I wasn’t going to make it past without the helpful tip from another poster. :)

Great feedback!
