Great video. With regards to honing in your distances, you could try setting the Power Range (found just above each club in the club selection menu) lower or higher, depending on how far you hit. If you are a softer hitter like me, perhaps dropping the Power meter (range) a bit will then mean you are hitting the distances you normally hit.

I tried it first, and while my wife was using it, I was already ordering it from Amazon. The ceilings in my home are too low for a simulator, so this is perfect! If you accessorize it with the battery pack headband, you get over 4 hours of play between chargings. So realistic and so many areas and games to dabble in. I will probably have to quit my job or take an early retirement so I can just spend my days with this thing on my head. Unbelievable!

It took me a whole season of rest, ice and braces to finally get through the golfers elbow it caused. Apparently the old Nintendo Wii golf had the same risks. It has something to do with full swings and the lack of resistance compared to a real club. Just letting you know.

I have not played the actual courses yet only the range top golf and pro putt but I was blown away but how realistic it was for as you say what is effectively V1 and I believe there are other golf games now too. Love the business meeting idea not something I even thought about. Next team meeting definitely on the course 😀 Could you see it evolving to a point where you could be giving a lesson virtually? maybe they could add path numbers, extension, flexion, rotation. Throw in a vr force plate (wii balance board) possibilities are endless. Hope you are sharing more ideas with the developers. This really could be a future contender to the affordable the home launch monitor/simulator
@lachlanpatterson6390

These, along with launch monitors, are mostly being held back by the inability to accurately capture the lie of the ball. For example, long roughs are the only hazard on the course which Broadie's "Stroke's Gained" metric cannot predict - and I'd argue capturing the accuracy (and difficulty) of lies are paramount in capturing the true experience of golf. A soggy day at Ballybunion plays vastly differently to a hot day at Bay Hill...

For me the key factor is the weight of the club and contact with the ball. Thus, for me, ball launch monitors coupled to screens shielded by nets will still be preferred. But then cost is likely to be vastly different. A launch monitor, PC, screen projector and software starts at around £4 - 5k and can easily reach £50,000 for the top notch gear. But it feels so much more like a golf shot. What price would a Golf+ VR system be pitched at, and while the simulator space almost has to be dedicated the VR approach does offer works anywhere convenience. So the three factors for me are: 1. Club swing weight and impact 2. Complete system pricing 3. Setup convenience in dedicated or reusable space.

I could see that long term there could be benefits. The big thing for me and I think many others would be the controller. As you eluded to and more development comes, there will need to be more weight and realistic weight added to controllers to offer a real life benefit. From all the reviews you've done over the years, you're not shaft/length/weight sensitive in your swing. You can pretty much get results from any club so a feather light controller isn't going to influence your results on screen but for others that are, it won't transfer well until the controllers are more realistic to the game outside. Looks cool though and definitely has a lot of potential, especially in colder (and very hot) climates when you may not be able to play golf year round, like we can in Oz.

So is Eleven Table Tennis. 5-10 years from now I could see VR taking over Golf simulators, especially considering the cost difference. All you'll need that doesn't exist on Golf+ yet is a tracking device on a real club for a properly simulated swing. Ball contact may be necessary too for that full tactile feedback effect, but it's lower on the priority list. And of course they should continue progressing ball physics/inertia and environmental variables to be as accurate as possible.
