Challenges / Scenarios - Game Mode

A fun idea - create challenges within Game Mode (for single or multiple golfers). For example -

  • Closest to the Pin
  • Skins game
  • Captain's Choice
  • Best Ball

Tournament Scenarios - examples:

  • Match Play: Come back and win being 3 holes down with 4 holes to play
  • Match or beat Rory McIlroy's record breaking 4-round US Open score at Capital Club (this would be very hard)
  • Golf Season mode to earn tour card - include 4 majors using the replicas in the current or future course catalogue
  • etc

I second that!, this would be ideal for this system, Have friends come over and be able to choose these type of games or just a round, but atleast its an option available. Also mini games for the driving range would help with accuracy; For example, a driving range were there is a person with one of those carts that pickup the balls from the range. people go crazy aiming for that! hence the help with accuracy. maybe a range with bullseyes and the system highlights the one you are suppose to hit. I think these tibits would set the bar really high for residential simulators going forward!. The optishot has already stands out from the rest in my opinion, now its time to set it apart! ;)

I was just golfing with a buddy last night and we were talking about how cool it would be to be able to play a skins match

I would also love to see mini-games or challenges even if they are just played for top score or as part of the practice module.

It could include a variety of famous golf scenarios or tried and true favorites such as:

Fade Wall

Draw Wall

Flop Wall

Progressive Distance Irons/Driver - each shot farther than the last

Progressive Distance Putting - each successful putt steps you back for the next putt

Short Iron Elevated green closest to the hole

Longball driving - total distance minus distance from center of fairway

N shots for N targets

Hello Everybody!

We just released 2.5 and we've finally added some new game types: Match, Skins, Alternate Shot, Stableford, Better Ball, and Best Ball. More will come in time as will challenges. We hope you enjoy what we have so far and thank you all for the suggestions and feedback.

Thanks Jonathan. I just read over the news release over what's in 2.5 - looks like a pretty hefty release! Looking forward to trying it tonight. Thanks for the update!

Newest version of Opti Shot doesn't have the "swing" sound, nor the bird chirping (even though that can be annoying). Would have been nice to have that posted as a disclaimer or Beta test prior to releasing.
