I’m not sure if it’s the correct thread, but I got an OculusVR system recently and have the Golf+ game (I figure it’s an alternative to real golf).

just wondering if anyone else has it and if you would like to play rounds.

I don't have (or want) a VR headset, but I do think this is as good a place as any. Though, maybe Geek Zone could work, too.

I am waiting for the gaming industry to figure the VR thing out better. Right now, it looks too clunky for me in terms of game play.

This game doesn’t seem clunky to me. The big question is if playing it will make my real swing off…. 

I wish I lived close enough to iacas to have him hit some shots on the range.  I think someone like him could truly say how realistic/unrealistic it is.

It is fun to play, nonetheless.

    • Day 232 4-8 Rotation work tonight. Used just a mirror for the most part. Recorded a few swings just to see where I am.   
    • Day 31 (8 Apr 26) - Worked with a coupe of kids on the school golf team on the range - then joined them for a few holes of practice play.  
    • I’m sure you know his practice schedule 🤣 also, he had a wrist injury recently. 
    • I’m going to go out on a limb and say that maybe if Jason spent less time on his clothes and more on golf he would win more.
    • So, my league starts next week, and I have a golf trip in two weeks. I am thinking no matter what I do, I will have to do my left leg and downswing turning piece. At least this turning piece helps me negate shanking the shot.  I probably shanked the foam ball about 10x in a row yesterday. Given, I was doing downswing work with not much caring about the body rotation. I was struggling to feel the same thing from two days ago. Where I was able to feel the arm piece and the turning piece working together. Yesterday, my body turn was just destroying my arms down piece.  That said, it’s not like I have a great feel for where the club is in space. Especially with how fast the downswing is. If I do the arms downswing piece with the turn piece better. I just feel those two things. Then after I am going into the finish I am like, "Oh, that was center of the clubface". I am glad the clubface found the ball. Maybe that is normal when you are trying to fix your mechanics. You are so hyper focused on the hitting the swing feel that the feel for the club is just gone.  I’ve watched YouTube videos where they talk about how correct lower-body mechanics give you the feeling of having tons of time in the downswing. I’m like, BS! there is no time. If anything, it feels faster now. 🤣 I do notice that the clubface stays more open past impact, less flippy. Not like I am trying to do that. Actually, with the downswing arm piece, I am trying to feel like I am rolling my wrist (closing the club a bit more).
