Important to read these directions:

 

1.  Press Fire to set target.  The default target is the pin. Moving joystick will move the pin which shows your new target.  Prees the button to set target .
The pin will reset to the hole and The blue dot ( or yellow) marks  your target.  The bottom left  number is the club for the distance:

- -   out of range ( can't shoot).

D  Driver

5   5 Iron

7   7 Iron

9  9 Iron

W Wedge

P  Putter

Tips:

1.  Takes practice to get a feel for putting. But the rule of max strength = distance 10 works pretty well .

2.  If moving the target just a little selects  a more powerful club ( lower number) , then select more powerful club.

3.  Except when putting, always use max shot strength , since you are trying to hot your preset target which = max strength.

 
Off Green Controls:

1. 

  The shot will attempt to  hit the target , but is affected by wind ( bottom Right number) , and how your shot timing is executed.
Wind is only on in P0 difficulty A.  
(For reference, ->9 means the wind is blowing right 9 . So aim 9 to left of intended target. The greens are about 16 units wide.
The course view playfield is 50 spaces vertically . So wind blowing up 9 , move target down about 1/5 way. You will get feel for
how much to adjust with practice.
Of course the other factors affecting your shot ( timing) will complicate the result. 

2.  To  swing, 

pull down on Joystick.  This will activate the shot strength meter .  
You want to achieve maximum strength on the meter always ( this is to the target you have set ).

 
Push up on the joystick to begin downswing ( you want to do this when the strength meter is exactly at max ( or just below ) .  
Too little strength will cause a short shot.


Push button to finish swing when the meter  is exactly at 0.  Too early ( slice to right ) or too late ( hook to left ) .
(If your ball is higher than target this is reversed )


So shot mechanic is down - up - button.


Avoid Water Hazard ( 1 stroke penalty). If ball lie is in trees or sand , this will have the affect of causing your shot
to travel a bit shorter than usual .

ON the green.

1. Putting is same as swing ( down - up - button) . The bottom right number is distance to pin.  
 Think of the maximum shot strength = distance 10 or higher. 
 So for a put of distance 6 , let the strength meter get about 70% .  

Button must be pressed at end unless distance is 1 or 0.

Pressing button too soon will pull teh putt right and too late will cause the putt to miss left.

It is possible to over putt ( too hard) so that teh putt rolls over the hole.



On tee ,  Top row numbers are left: current net score ( over par = black, under par = red)  and right :current hole.
After tee shot, top row is left: current hole score and right : par for current hole.

Bottom row are club and Wind ( distance to pin if on green)
