GOLF - MOUNTAIN

Developed by: Skyworks Technologies, Inc.
Instructions:
Aim your shot with the mouse and click anywhere on the screen to start your swing. As the shot indicator moves up the wheel, click a second time to select your shot power.

• Pay attention to how close you are to the pin -- 100% power is not always the best option!
• If you wait too long to click, your shot will be forced to half-power. The shot indicator will now reverse directions. Click a third time to determine the accuracy of the shot.
• A perfectly straight shot is achieved by clicking when the indicator is at the bottom center of the wheel.
• An early click will result in a hooked shot and a late click will cause the ball to slice.

Aim indicator:

• When the golfer is in the ready position, a red 2D arrow indicator displays the selected direction of the upcoming shot.
• Move the mouse left and right to change the desired direction.
• To rotate the golfer's view, move the mouse arrow to the far left or right side of the game window.
• You can rotate 360 degrees in any direction.
• Note that you can not rotate your view on tee shots.

Swing Controls:

• Click anywhere in the middle of the game screen to start the swing.
• The swing indicator rotates clockwise, gradually increasing in swing power.
• Click a second time to select the power of the swing. 100% power is indicated by the beginning of the red marker at the top of the Swing Wheel.
• The swing indicator now changes direction, moving counterclockwise, simulating the forward swing of the club. The player’s third click determines the accuracy of the hit. A perfectly straight shot is achieved by clicking at the exact point on the bottom (the lowest point on the Swing Wheel). An early click yields a hooked shot while a late click causes a slice to occur.

Club selection:

• Clicking on the club selection drops down a menu of the available clubs and their associated potential distances.

Radar:

• The radar shows an overhead view of the current hole.
• The white marker is your current location.
• The red line is your current Aim and Distance based on the club currently selected.

Lie Indicator:

• This shows the ball’s current lie, and the distance of the ball to the flag stick.

Putting:

• There are two animated icons that move toward the flag stick.
• Together they show you the left, right, up, and down break of the green.
• The icon shaped like an arrow shows you the left and right break along the selected aim path.
• Example: If this icon points left most of the time, then you would aim right to compensate for the left break.
• The icon shaped like a triangle shows you the up and down hill slope along the selected aim path.
• Example: If this icon mostly points up then you would hit the ball harder to compensate for the hill.

Player Info:

• This display incorporates information for the current player, including: hole number, par for the hole, number of strokes taken on the current hole, and total strokes taken for all holes.

Wind Indicator:

• The white arrow inside the swing wheel indicates the current wind speed and direction.

Yardage indicators:
The numbers inside the swing wheel are:

• % of clubs yardage you got with your swing
• distance of your last shot
