Not sure if anyone has seen this yet or not, but I didn't see it when I searched the forum. I found this the other day and its a pretty good online game.

It's a flash game, but its much better than nearly any flash game I've seen before. Its in Beta now, so I'm wondering if it will become a pay service once it leaves beta.

I've played the stroke play at Bethpage Black a couple times and ended up +6 both times, from the red tees. The putting is pretty hard to judge out passed 10'. I think my best put has been 15' or so to this point, although I did have a chip in from 30'.

I found the tutorials pretty invaluable if anyone is having problems figuring out the controls.

I haven't played any golf simulators in probably 10 years but this one seems pretty good, especially for an online one.

my best putt was 8 foot and ya the short-mid putts suck you have a bar from 0-30 foot and guess how hard to hit it it sucks i hit like 93% of grens but still end up at +11 at the end of the round

The game has sure come a long way since the last post.  There are now seven 18 hole courses available for stroke play (although 1 course you have to pay greens fees and is a ripoff).

Give it a try if you're looking for a realistic golf game.

Anyone play this game?  I have an account that I haven't used in ~ 2yrs.  I logged on tonight to see what courses they have and was impressed with the line-up.

Hi All,

Does anyone play this game at all?

I've recently downloaded it and it's surprisingly difficult (in comparison to tiger woods on the xbox/playstation), and there's a few decent courses on it like St Andrews and Celtic Manor to name a couple.

I only ask as there's a bit where you can create a club and play against each other, so it would be interesting playing against other actual golfers.

Regards,

Rob

I just started playing. I am not a fan of the constant need to buy credits on the games to get better equipment. I know this is the current trend but it is also the reason I quit playing video games. I just clicked over to amateur... I don't know how much longer I will keep playing it...

I played it but found the putting so annoyingly difficult that I've never finished 9 consecutive holes.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT · Posted

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.

      I have access to far more data (including surveys and polls) than you do with your anecdotes. I mean this as plainly and literally as possible: you’ve demonstrated that you do not. They would, one way or the other.

      Yes, but you don't live in the UK, so you have no idea what we think about it here. It's a very different mindset here, to demonstrate the fact you should consider 9 out of 10 games we play here are Stableford, whereas you you almost solely play medal. Neither is right or wrong, it's just different  I'm trying to avoid swearing here. Once again, and for the 1000th time, I understand the system, I just don't agree with it. Is there anything wrong with that? PS, I do not have the time or patience to post my results, especially as they prove nothing  That's because 99% of the posters are Yanks
