I need a recommendation for a computer golf game that can be played offline.  I have limited bandwidth issues (I live in the boonies) so, need to able to play offline.  It doesn't need to be fancy -- just the basics.  I have a PC and would like to be able to hook up to the TV.  When I did a search it seems most mention playing online and I could figure out if they can play offline also.

Thanks,

John

Links is a real classic, still have my 4 CD set. I'm sure the later versions a just as good if you can find them floating around.

I have the old Tiger Woods PGA Tour games for the PC. My only complaint is they stopped making them for PC in 2008 or so, so that's as new as you'll get.

Well, you could try using Google, a dedicated search engine, rather than asking us to Google it for you.

Go to the shopping tab, or click the amazon link.

My apologies Sir.  'Twas hoping to find it at a brick and mortar to get it this weekend.

Most stores do not sell games that old, and unfortunately PC games can't really be bought used.

Last I knew Links 2003 (the last official version, but there is a mod 1.07 to for a nice update, and tons of mostly free downloadable user designed courses) was available for $5 as a download only.  There is also a patch to make it compatible with Win 7  It is available from Links Country Club.

Thanks all,

Was able to download Links and I'm playing it now.  Graphics aren't up to what I've seen on some of the newer ones, but it works and will keep a bit of cabin fever away for awhile.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.

      Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.

      Trackman place today. I broke my tripod so could only film by hand the video the venue’s cameras generated. This is an 8 iron. Amazing how odd this feels relative to how it looks. Not similar!
