Been playing Golf+ since they first started the full course update. This game is the reason why I got back into playing real golf after 8 years of not. Funny enough I stumbled upon all the home golf simulator stuff now and your channel and doing that now as well with the Garmin R10 lol...
That's awesome! That's really one of the main reasons I covered it in the channel. I feel like things like this help expose the great game of golf. Also it really is truly fascinating what they are doing with everything. For VR Golf, I'm impressed! The most interesting part I thought was the face control was very accurate.
@@GolfSimulatorVideos I play more real golf now but still enjoy the VR game. They are doing great things, released a links course today and doing tournament play through their Discord. Lots more courses to come out too. Really the online multiplayer makes this game even more fun if you get a chance to play with people.
I just got this game because of this video and I love it. Now I just have to convince my friends to get it this game would shine playing with someone else. Does give someone a false sense of skill. I know for a fact I’m not this good when I play in person it’s very generous with making contact with the ball and power even when power is turned down it’s too much sometimes.
@ @dunmer26. I also just got the game and my golf buddy moved away awhile ago and told him to get it. We played till very late last night and laughed the whole time playing. 36 holes and I definitely feel it! It’s a blast with a good friend.
I got this in April and it’s amazing. Play online with my buddies in different cities all the time. You should make a follow up video once u get more familiar with it because it’s actually much better than you even show. Various green speeds and wind and free /paid course add ons ( including a new free release today of a links style course) best course so far is Kiawah Island. Plenty of upgrades coming.
Yeah I wanted to show it kind of "out of the box". That way people would understand what it is like for someone that has never used it. I might do a follow up video like that, maybe even multi player. I am impressed with the system for sure. Most impressive part I noticed was the face control to control the shot. Very cool for sure. Thanks for watching!
@@GolfSimulatorVideos face control is solid. Basically the weakness is you hit the ball pure every time- no fat or thin shots. Putting is incredible and i love that they are not planning on making Golf + 2, they are simply going to keep making this game better. I joined their Discord and they are great at listening to feedback etc. Love ur channel- got a Garmin R10 last month and I’m finally getting my setup up and running. As for u playing online u should ask one of the developers, they seem like good guys. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
I used to have a practice driver tha had all of that, it was weighted and there was something inside the club head that would simulate impact when swing was correct
I got mine on Saturday (the Golf+ game) I have NEVER played golf, but I loved watching it on the TV as a kid cause I didn't get it. But then in 2005 I went to Kuwait and would watch my SGT playing and after a week I wanted to play, 2 weeks later I was getting good and whopping his butt. I had fin yesterday playing this.
This looks interesting so I’ve been grooving my swing for the last 18 months in my Garmin r10 and now Skytrack to the tune of around 48,430 swings do you think this is an option if I lose my space in the garage?
Yeah it is very interesting. I like that it brings attention to golf to some that may have never played before. I had a surprising number of people keep asking so I wanted to show it. I think the main question is could VR GOLF ever replace a quality golf simulator, in my opinion I can't see how it possibly ever could. I mean it's virtual, it is not real golf LOL Wild stuff though! The face control was impressive!
with all that space you don't have to just stand in that same spot; you can draw a MUCH larger guardian and walk behind your ball and check you site lines just like you do in real life. I NEVER use that re center A button because I just setup to the ball exactly like I do in real life.
Great video! I was hoping you know you could walk around lol :) I love that aspect it. I feel it legit helps my ability to setup on my line correctly! Just wanting comment readers know you are not locked physically from moving around in VR in general as well.
Needs to be a golf simulator put out that can be played by people who are sitting and fairly stationary so disabled people can play. I have Golf 5 and there is no smooth turning and you can't walk to the green.
Great video! I think one thing that could be developed would be an add-on golf club handle with a device in it that would both “weigh it down” and also simulate the feel of the “click” you feel at ball impact in real golf. That’s one thing I find missing in VR golf…an accurate weight feel of the cub and the sensation you feel at impact.👍🏼
I've seen some people buy 2lb ankle weights you use for running and wrap them around the club. Seems like a simple and effective way to get the weight of the golf club feel.
I think they are working to make things more and more realistic as hardware becomes more capable being able to handle the latest graphics engines and detail
So the funny part is the recording looks fast and jittery but inside the goggles it is not like that! Must be since "two" separate screens are being combined it speeds up movement some 🤷♂️. Thanks for watching
Would you say this would be useful for practice in terms of working on your swing even though you aren’t swinging an actual club or hitting a ball? Seems like this would be nicer than a full sim setup since it requires minimal space, comparatively.
I mean you are making the motion and have your hands set in the grip, so no kind of like a swing trainer, probably a each to their own situation though.
I play both and can say you cant really replace hitting an actual ball, but as a I high handicapper I can say it's not that forgiving or too game like, but I haven't even tried to setting yet which has no forgiveness from what I hear lol. You definitely get distance boosts if you want but can adjust that to your distances with the power meter if you want. I would say its great for swing FEEL. You do get rewarded for proper swing techniques! It's a top notch app for sure would highly recommend it!
Its not very accurate, it assumes everyone can strike the ball like a pro! I also dont get the appeal of 1992 graphics, it def needs more power to get up to normal golf game graphics. Even 2002 golden tee graphics are better.

VR GOLF CLUB for Meta Quest 2 Controller: amzn.to/3OUSXVL
Golf+ is by far and away my favourite app on the Quest 2 - The Pebble Beach course they just added is amazing, best yet.
It’s a great rendering of the course for sure. Thanks for watching!
can u only play golf+ on quest 2?
@@SA6BBI think you can play it on most Vr headsets not just quest 2
Top golf does let you use club attachments but you have to go back into the settings for top golf specifically to select it. Great vid
Good tip! Thanks for watching
can you pick up a ball let's say in bunker and replace it in the green while multiplayer online ? asking for a friend

I do not think this will ever measure up to hitting real golf balls, it is fun, but not real golf practice.
hey i have a question, i was wondering why there is only top golf and pro putt. why is there no clubhouse with the courses? i have a quest 1
I couldn't find a way to walk down the course, only to teleport - isn't a nice walk outside part of the golfing experience?
That’s a great question actually. Would be interesting to walk and I’m not sure you can.
Pretty cool, thanks for the video
Appreciate you watching 🍻
Just got this game - absolutely addicted
Is playing lefty an 'equal to right hand' experience?
Interesting. Not sure it's my thing but love the innovation.

Agreed. I was focused on trying to be square to the camera for the demo. Thanks for watching!

Can you perform full fast swings? Every time I try I miss the ball and the club glitches in front of my screen
Is Golf+ app free? My son has the Oculus....maybe I will try it
I did have to purchase the app. It comes with a few free courses and more courses are available for purchase. Thanks for watching
@@GolfSimulatorVideos actually 5 of the 6 courses are free. More courses are coming, free and paid.
@@Resist4 yeah I was trying not to be being specific just said "a few" my bad.
Needs to be a golf simulator put out that can be played by people who are sitting and fairly stationary so disabled people can play. I have Golf 5 and there is no smooth turning and you can't walk to the green.
Seems realistic, but is it true to practice? Eg - will it pick up lack of hip rotation, poor wrist hinge, lead foot / trail foot for example?
It's basically going to read what's going on with the club. I would say it's pretty fairly accurate based on what the path and the face are doing.
is there another simulator that does that?
Gotta turn the green speed down to medium in my opinion
I’m going to mess with that for the next video for sure 👍
Can you thin and fat shot like in real life?
No, that’s really the big difference ya know. It’s for fun not to be that realistic
Great video!

@@riffraff9070 2lbs ! Holy crap what kinda golf clubs they got!! The heaviest real club is well under a pound! lol
@@riffraff9070 lol never seen a 2lb golf club!
You need walk about mini golf. I would love to play with you.
Is this another piece of software or the mini I think that is in this software?
It is a game inside the oculus.
Let me know and you can join in on a game with us
What is yipping at it?
How would you compare accuracy of this to something like tru golf mini of phi golf?
You know that's a great question. Honestly, it has to be really close in my opinion!
wish the games weren't so cartoony and more photo-realistic
I think they are working to make things more and more realistic as hardware becomes more capable being able to handle the latest graphics engines and detail
Keep your had still

@@GolfSimulatorVideos thanks for response
Ur putter power isn’t at 100 it looks like it’s like 130% that’s why it’s coming off so hot
That's hilarious I didn't mess with it so who knows how it got there if that's the case. I'll get it back down to 100% 🍻
Thanks for watching!
Can you play online against anybody?
Yes! There is online play available. I just haven't checked it out yet. Thanks for watching
@@GolfSimulatorVideos sweeeeeeeet🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 thank you so much for the video
170 ball speed ??? That would equate to pga speed. Does it amp up everything. ?
Check out my other videos using GCQuad my ball speed it 165-170. Top tour players are 190+.

Its 100 percent not real. I can par and birdie every hole and i could never do that IRL
Play in pro mode

Too much movement……makes me dizzy. Slow down!
It’s so tough because it’s not like that for the player. I agree the recording is fast! Thanks for watching!
If you're reviewing this as a simulator then you shouldn't play on novice.
I’m reviewing it for what it is, nothing else. Just a demonstration.
