About
The Golf Club VR is built off the foundation laid by HB Studios’ original award winning game released in 2014, The Golf Club, taking advantage of the original game’s stunning visual presentation and over 130,000, two kilometer² procedurally and user-generated courses. The Golf Club VR will allow you to enjoy your round of golf like never before. With the HTC Vive room-scale capabilities, users have the opportunity to play golf from the comfort of their home all while having complete control over their experience. Choose the right club for every situation from your interactive golf bag. Plan how you want to attack each hole with your yardage booklet and receive on-the-fly information for each shot from your golf watch, or just simply explore the vast landscape around you.
TUTORIAL
We have included a fully interactive tutorial to help prepare you for The Golf Club VR. With the help of our commentator from the original The Golf Club, the step-by-step guide familiarizes you with the game. In The Golf Club VR, we only use one Vive controller. Throughout the tutorial we will teach you how we have utilized this to its full potential and outline each interaction you need to complete, from learning to swing to exploring your environment.
FULL IMMERSION
VR allows gamers to have a completely new perspective of video games. Along with fun gameplay mechanics, VR requires a unique attention to visuals and audio over traditional development. With the help of the visual presentation from the original The Golf Club, golfers can feel like they’re on the course from the comfort of their home. A rework of the audio for VR helps immerse gamers and pull you in even further; ambient sounds of wind, crickets, waves crashing, birds and much more, including the sound of that perfect drive to create an amazing virtual experience. And we guarantee your experience will be free from mosquito bites.
COURSES
Every course created in the original The Golf Club will be playable in VR. A VR rating system has been put in place to help curate the fun and beautiful courses, surfacing them to the top for everyone to enjoy. Users will not have access to the course designer from the original The Golf Club in VR. Though, with a library of over 130,000 courses to choose from and over 250,000KM² to explore and compete on, there’s plenty to keep you occupied.

Disaster!
Golf Simulator?
Far from it!!!
I played only one Hour and also chose the second lightest Level, but it is simply not possible for me to hit the Ball regularly! Partly up to 20 Swings until the Ball moves. And then only 45 Meters with a 7-iron.
In short, I am AN HCP 5 Player, have played some Rounds under Par and have a Driving Distance of about 230 250 Meters from the Tea.
This "Game" is nothing more and nothing less than a "Game."
But only has the Name in common with Golf. Nothing else.

Early access review I was sure we could do a nice golf thing with a VR helmet. But we needed a serious Publisher. Frankly this game is a success. I do not play in real so maybe the real players will find fault but for me, already I find it complete. Distances, help or not, wind, correct scenery (limited by the lively, but already not bad), type of Club with distances, placement and how to hit have a real incidence, the wind also, the blows are analyzed, "scored", we can study the shot that we just e play. I don't see much to complain about. There is enough realism to be obliged to take his time at every blow but enough help not to be completely disgusted from the start. After, the physics of the swings, the ball, etc... may not be very much in tune with real Golf (I can not judge), but for a non insider, it works, we love. Then we can probably also improve the decorations?
I do not know if big boxes of the genus EArts will do a golf VR and if they will do better but I do not regret at all to have paid for the Golf Club. really good! It feels like it. It just lacks a bit of real wind and a cool temperature...!

Early access review a real golf simulation! Forget all the other simulations you've played, you've finally found the nugget! Impeccably realized at the level of the swing, you can know when your club touches the Earth to properly positioned you when you feel the vibration in the controller. Designed to be 100% managed with a single controller in order to be able to use this one as a club, and to make your swing without being bothered by a second controller in hand. Tons of impeccable, modelled trails, a hyper-realistic typing sound, happiness. To date, the only problem is the graphical optimization. A very annoying aliasing to distinguish the flag off which can only be limited by increasing to the Max the graphic parameters concerned that completely drop the fluidity of the games... (GTX 1080, 8gb RAM and proc i5-4570 at 3, 20Mghz in 2 cores). So yes, you will not have a swing with a handful of grams on which the positioning of the hands is a bit complicated compared to a club but the sensations are there. With a little imagination the sensation is there.... Come on, a little graphic optimization, a multiplayer where you can see and watch the other swing and we will have a nugget!
