COULD THIS CHANGE GOLF FOREVER or am I Mental 

Just downloaded this and I must say it's pretty accurate. Sliced every drive just like the real thing

I've got this game, was hoping someone would review it. 100% its so realistic. I pull my drives in exactly the same way on the course. Thanks for reviewing

I've had the Quest 2 since release, and picked up this game while it was still in Beta. I said at that time the physics were remarkable. So cool to see Mark showcasing this.

Really enjoyed this Mark. Dare I say my favourite video in a while. Perhaps people who can no longer play golf this would be great for.

Thanks for trying out and reviewing the game mark! I'm a gamer and a golfer, picked this game up on release day and have been playing it ever since, the team has come a huge way, from the start of the game, with only the Proputt courses to the Topgolf Range, and to a Full Golf game in one and a half years, it has been and still is a wild ride and I enjoy every second of it.

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.

This is awesome. I think this could be more beneficial than just pounding balls on the range. Teaches you a better concept of developing skills

It really IS amazing.The game gets 10x better with attachment AND weights. I made my own attachment with 3D printed mold, broken golfclub and Kiwi weigths. The swing patch gets so much more natural now.

They have done an amazing job. It's genuinely fantastic.

would like to see the video series of a student (brand new to golf) starting out on the VR and seeing how it affects their progression to the game on course.

VR is simply amazing, so many things you can do with it, from Golf to other activities, I love it!

Had a play with my sons Quest 2 at Xmas, great fun and getting in at the start is a great thing to do with tech like this. I found the golf very easy to pick up, and the putting rather tricky.

Really think you are one of the greatest and thinking of concepts for videos. Even you last training vids dealing with nerves, 5 must haves etc. Very good content. And this looks epic. I always go back to golf computer/ mobile games but they only keep my interest for a few days

Absolutely love this Mark, agree the possibilities are endless but even just playing with Friends on this V1 version would be great, if they develop it correctly and get more golf accessories for the handle etc and you could add in your own distances it would be top class. nothing will beat playing but in the UK that's not always possible. Most average golfers can't afford to build a sim with track man etc to play golf virtually with friends but this gives us all something affordable and fun with some teaching/training purposes that have the opportunity to get better...I'm sold already

I have been playing this vr game since mid January and love it. My son has started playing golf and I am dusting my clubs off from a very long break away. Absolutely buzzing thta you hVe featured the Quest 2 and this game. The developers are great and their discord channel is a good place to hang out too.

Really enjoyed this video. I have had this game since beta also and have enjoyed playing it. I live in hong kong and struggle to get to a course most of the time, so usually im playing courses at the range off my launch monitor . But this is a great way for me to play a game of golf with my friends and family back in the UK and just enjoy playing golf with them

Ive been playing this game since Christmas when I got my Oculus! I find it great, Im looking forward to the future updates when they bring in new clubs and different brands! great video Mark

I have a quest 2. It is great for exercise and fun. The table tennis game and boxing games are great and I'll be trying the golf game soon.

Love it Mark. I have not used my quest enough for golf. The putting on it is unreal. 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

Loved this. Looking into it for sure!

It looks great and definitely heading in the right direction for training

Great video. We got one for the kids for Christmas and I've held off on the golf game since I thought it would be kinda useless. What golf grip are you interested in?

Great ! Nicely done.

My jaw was dropped all the way to the end. Fun video.

morning yaw'll is Mark Crossfield's godlike form. I love the kitchen format intros. Brings me back to the beauty coffee shot days.

Really good idea and shows the possibilities for practice for those that can’t have indoor nets and launch monitors that want something. Great video would like to see more as it develops and other ideas like this.

I'm sure there will be Arccos like attachments that you could eventually add to your clubs and send the data to the application collecting real time swing path, speed, etc...then it will be a game changer as you don't need to install a large net, mat, projector, to build an at home virtual golf system.

Well done Mark, got one of these at Christmas and the Golf + game is awesome, as is Beat Sabre.

I have an Oculus 2 as well and love the top golf game. Tried the actual course when they first released it and it wasn't even enjoyable. So many problems with it. Glad to see it's improving and might have to give it another try. If you love the putting feature try top golf putting games. Thise games really make you feel like you are practicing your putting. Very enjoyable

I played a lot of Wii Golf back in the day but never helped my game sadly. They could definitely add teaching functions in there to help you visualize swing chances.. But I still think there's a need to deal with real grass and the crazy lies real life serves you. I'd rather do the real thing personally but whatever makes people get off their asses and move more; I'm for it!

Brilliant video! Super interesting. Would easily watch you play 18 holes VR-golf and Day of the week!👍👍

Watched video yesterday… had to buy one today🙉😂 golfgrip ordered!

You are a dam good golfer instructor and seemingly a pretty good golfer. I hadn't before given you enough credit as being as bright as you are. Well done

So cool, -15c today at home. Wish I had one of these. Thanks for the lesson. 😃😉👍

Great video and interesting concept 😲😲

Totally agree Mark. It’s great fun and quite realistic considering it’s limitations. Social aswell.

Watched your vlog on wolf creek after watching when your head fell off..lol . Amazing how they have replicated the course

Looks ace! Definitely need to get my hands on this!

I have a quest 2 and have been thinking about getting this game for a while. Never did I expect I would get a game review from you 😂 great stuff though, looks like this could be a good training aid for my real golf

Very cool!

Definitely good for people learning impact factors and ball flights.

This was cool mark. Many of the same thoughts!

I can't wait to see a virtual Coach Lockey playing next to you. Hahaha. I'm on board with this. It could be a great winter alternative when the snow is a foot deep here in the Midwest US.

Brilliant piece of kit 🏌️‍♂️

I've missed the coffee/tea intros....welcome back yall.

It was 6 o clock in the evening when i started playing this, just out of interest in the name of science, its now 01.39 am, i've had a few and i'm absolutely gobsmacked at how good this is and i may stay up all night ha ha

For someone who is stuck abroad in a country where golf is completely unaffordable, this might be absolutely brilliant! Very nice vid, Mark!

Loved the dancing brah. 😍

‘It just shows you what can be done, in my slippers….in my Lakers jersey…’ I don’t know why but that just really made me laugh. Great insight, love it

Got one of these at Christmas. Only played a few times on that golf game. I do really need the accessory handle. Only problem is I get motion sick by about hole 9...

That's awesome!!

Haha serious Ready Player One (the book) vibes from this game. It’s crazy. A bit off topic here, I’m working on an Astrophysics major, and a big problem COVID’s handed us is not being to attend in person labs. I’m really hoping technology like this develops for many more avenues of everyday life to make it accessible regardless of what’s going on in the real world 🙃 Cheers Mark, great video as always 👍

That looks like it has some real potential the 'virtual club' idea to get some mass in the grip would likely make it amazing.

Love this for playing with others or for lessons maybe

I love the “Morning y’all”. Really missed it when you stopped doing it…

Great. You are going to make me want to buy this.

Does bring up a good point in learning the game. How important is club to ground interaction and How important is feel/weight in the game? Some players are all feel and some are analytical in nature. If the analytics become more precise not necessarily towards a GC2HMT but at least clubhead data..this could be good fun. I'll wait for the 3rd round to come out.

I predict one day you going be to close to that tv and sling in to it. Some of your swings already had my anxiety up lol 😂

The experience playing with a friend in another state is truly amazing.

Very interesting device . I might come to getting one for winter rainy days . For the time being, I hit my wall with actual clubs and foam balls .

Hi Mark. Might be a silly question but could you see this technology being used in the future for coaching purposes

It looks fun I would really like to see it with golf grips and weighted. I think you and Mat should film a match at some exotic location.

This looks great and as you say the possibilities of where this goes is endless. I always find putting a waste of time on simulators so would be good to see if this is better.

Would have loved to see a follow up to this with new version. Great content!

I already want one!!!

Great potential here, and also a marketing dream for manufactures

Mark, have you tried to hit shots fat or thin? Curious of that when you mentioned the low point comment or if it’s basically just a center strike on all shots and just flight and trajectory are only based on “handle lean and face angle” sorta speak. Very cool

What about tittle x or Trugolf mini? Those are the same idea but designed with better graphics etc... Interested in your thoughts on those.

Really interesting, just one question. Did you keep your glasses on while playing? I'm really short sighted & wear glasses all the time.

Thx so much, awesome video. Is it possible to change from yard to meter? I have similar glasses like you, do you have to modify the Quest? Do you play Golf in Multiplayer? I would love to play with my brother and we are in different cities in Germany. What about you und DS17?

Hi Mark Very interesting idea. I know it’s older technology but I found something similar with the Nintendo Wii. Not exactly on shaping shots etc, but if you use the balance board it teaches you about stance and use of the ground. All useful when trying to develop the right feelings for a good swing? Now going to have to convince my son to bring his VR set for me to try this on. Just a different take on a simulator?

I just played Wolf creek 2 weeks ago and vr looks to be in better condition. 😀

Maybe I will be able to get a lesson from you in the near future. It’s only going to get better like you said. A golf club attachment would be a massive win. I saw the cheeky #262 aswell bruh 😂

This just cements Mark's strike is king statement. Even in VR, he is still hits his real life numbers. #forgetyourtech #marketingisBS

Living in Winnipeg, Canada, with snow on the ground 6 months of the year, this thing is a godsend! My daughter got one and wanted my wife and I to try it. I was blown away. 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!

i love golf+ on my oculus so much damn fun

Fantastic 👍

Great review Mark. Have you tried this recently? Have they continued to work on it or has it been abandoned?

Ty

hi Mark, What a fantastic video. Did you have to sign up to facebook in order to use this?Thanks

You have to pickup the deadeyevr drivr. It adapts the controller to a golf club and is supported specifically by golf+. Makes the club way more realistic.

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 got the Phigolf for Christmas. Give that a go. I think you can put it in your of golf as well. And it comes with a training club

Top stuff...............now need to steal the Oculus from my eldest ;-)

Damn bruh… that’s pretty awesome. I mean the exhibition of your Laker fandom…but that applies to the golf game as well. LOL. There’s some voodoo magic going on here. I can’t wait for the next iterations when they more advanced and more detailed!!!

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.

This is fantastic. I want to see live VR golf tournament instead of on the TV. Feeling like you are there would be awesome.

On a basic level it can certainly help face and path but with the strike missing not sure how beneficial it is as a training aid... As a gamer I'm super psyched to try it tho and as an entry point into golf it should definitely not be underestimated.

When it's so cold outside this looks like a reasonable way to go.

I have a Samsung Odyssey+ VR set with two controllers. Will have to see if I can download it on my system. Looks fun.

Even on the VR Muppet Tour it would be rude not to bogey the first 🤣 A match with coach would be entertaining as always. Pretty cool development 👍

It's weird that I remember your kitchen being built when ever you start a video in your house 😂😂

Can’t wait to get my Versace golf slippers.

Love the slippers

YEAH BOY, I'm a pretty average to poor golfer and I got the quest for my kids for crimbo.. Seen this game and thought must give it a go.. Wasn't dissapointed. Like you said the possibilitys are endless.. Also loving the table tennis, especially when your opponent forgets the table isn't actually there and trys to lean on it.. 😂😂😂

This has huge potential.

I like this but just wish I could use a club shaft shaped controller. You can swing with one hand but it's awkward. Gonna get one of the shaft controllers when available. Pretty cool that you can hit wedge shots that spin.

If someone finds a way to incorporate strike quality this already great tech will be incredibly useful both for enjoyment and improvement

Hi is this for PlayStation 5 vr set does it make you feel sick at all mark

I love these intros!
