Just purchased this game. I ended up trying it out with EA Play and honestly I'm impressed. Also yesterday I bought 2K PGA as found it was on sale for only £15! I mainly got it so can play on TGCTours. I've only had little time on both games, graphics on EA game are just wow, even on Medium and runs decently on my aging card.
First thing I noticed going between the two is the speed of the swing, 2K I will only pull back half with a quick flick up, whereas on EA I feel like I have more time, plus with EA you have to pull back fully to get the swing. The swing tempo seems easier on EA game, on 2K it's very hard and often times feels like getting perfect shots is hit or miss.
EA have made it almost impossible to put without grid, especially for me, it's very difficult to read. It would be nice if the camera could be zoomed all the way down to the ground.
Another thing EA does better is practice swings. On 2K it feels like I have to stop all animations to a halt, click to change from practice and then swing, but that small break can often break the flow of the swing I just had in practice. On EA, it's much more fluid, I can do some great practice swings, quickly switched to ball and still have the same flow I had in my practice swings.
I do have a lot of issues with approach shots though, but that's probably just me being bad. The greens feel brutal and balls just keep on rolling.
I do wish they would add in some sort of training ground, something where you can aim for pins on a small green, send some chips into baskets. Same sort of stuff you'd find on a real range.
I'll continue playing both games, both games are very enjoyable.
