Re: HB Studios Announces The Golf Club VR for the HTC Vive, Coming Later This Year

Love this game.
I've had it a while but now that I got an attachment to hook controller on end of a cut down golf shaft, it has been awesome!

I always wondered if that would work with the Vive. I bought a custom, cut down golf club called a "SimStix" for the PS3 Move. It worked great with Tiger Woods 12 and 13. i couldn't get anything out of the motion control swing using the Move without putting it in the SimStix, but that truly transformed it.

Do you any benefit by using a "wristy" swing with the Vive and The Golf Club VR with your "club"? I don't own a Vive BTW... just curious.

All I know is using my normal golf swing with just the controller..I never got decent club head speed. I could if I used 1 arm and lots of wrist snap but that destroyed the immersion so I shelved the game.
With the attachment and using real swing had been a game changer.

I.still (as the swing analyzer shows) have a slight over the top swing but it is what it is..I'll get there.

So you're able to get believable results by using your apparatus? Do you have a picture of what you're using, or a link to it? I'd love to see how this is done

It's not mine. Just one I found through the message boards.

This and settings gave great results.

I forgot to comment on this after you posted the pic... very impressive - I can see how that would transform the game into something special!
