Tiger Proofing includes reducing the size of the fairways, increasing the frequency of water hazards and bunkers, and changing the surface of the green so that putts roll faster or slower.

Where the PC version shines best is the same place it always has: the swing mechanics. You have the options to use good old-fashioned three-click swings, a gamepad, or TrueSwing with the mouse.
The latter is really the way to play, as swinging the mouse down and up like a club or, optionally, left to right best simulates the stroke of the club.
The range of motion and sensitivity dwarfs what the consoles offer, and this is why you get such an authentic experience from Tiger on the PC. Like with the previous builds, it feels great. But, it seems as if EA did spend some time tuning the TrueSwing more this year to make it a little less erratic, and subsequently more forgiving. This forgiveness level changes as you improve your stats or use a player like Tiger Woods , though, so it's a pretty good balance.
Still, it would have been nice to have a slider that would allow you to alter the sensitivity and difficulty. Putting works very much in the way that it has in the past. You can use the grid to read the nearby green surface; then, you line up your shot and swing with the mouse.
It's pretty intuitive, although it does automatically limit your total potential swing to keep you fairly close to the hole, which takes the some of the challenge out of it.
This seems to be part of the whole movement to make the game more accessible, and it may irk simulation purists a bit, but it's still an enjoyable putting game. However, the grid could have taken a few cues from the console versions and added in beads to give you a better idea of the surface shape. And, like the other versions of Tiger, putting could be advanced to be more challenging and focused on spending more time reading the greens, because that's where the game -- and your score -- are really going to vary.
Yet another area the PC version is stronger than its console brethren is obviously graphics. There are different artists and a lot more horsepower to work with, so you have a much wider range of visual effects, higher resolution textures, etc. It's going to depend on your setup, but Tiger 06 has a really flexible engine that works on a variety of PC setups.
The range of lighting schemes and weather effects is a huge advantage for players, too. You'll experience soft morning sunrises, warm evening sunsets, as well as dreary, wet days with rolling fog.
