Oh man... your game is about to double in size. It is under Mario Golf, Single Player, Challenges.
They're a blast. I was feeling a little jipped after beating the three tourneys, then I found these.
Agreed! I always underestimate 5ms+ winds, though, which is kinda fatal here.

There's a mode called Mario Golf. I highly recommend checking it out.
Oh no Kouriozan
First bed error.
Edit: maybe his whole internet died if he's not posting here.
Edit2: dirty? why i would never
I'd be up for more. Hopefully I can beat that goddamn star coin mission in the meantime.

CPU Donkey Kong put on a hilariously poor performance in his star challenge match, I'd think he'd know his way around his jungle a bit better, trapped behind fauna and out of bounds on numerous occasions.
That first hole is generous enough with that barrel cannon to perhaps at last help my achieve my lifelong Mario Golf goal, the Albatross, I can almost taste it at long last!

Oh right this....
Maybe I should give this one more quick shot. I thought sub-3:00 would be good but not good enough apparently!
Edit: OK finished with lunch, post if you want to play vs~

Totally forgot about that. I'd have to like run straight home to participate but am not in a position to do so.
Oh well, I'll do the next one. ~
I'll hop in!
Sweet, anyone else? I'll wait ~3 mins!
There's one open spot!
Yep, I'll wait til you're in~

It doesn't take into account top/bottom spin or weather conditions.
Watching Gold Mario's ball bounce all over the place will never not be funny.
>.<
And yay, waters!
So, if I understand correctly, the center of the grid is if I hit a perfect shot, and assumes there is no other outside factors like wind, spin or terrain?
Then the circle that signifies where the ball lands takes into account wind? Meaning I don't actually have to compensate for that when I aim my shot?
No, the change in trajectory is only affected by the slope of where you are standing.
So wind, spin, terrain, and elevation even, all have to be evaluated. The tutorials do a good job of talking you through everything.
Jascii, what happened?!
You're supposed to be the pro of the bunch
1st) Jascii -6
2ndd) Kourio, Boxy, daydream -3
A fitting response by Jascii, I think.
gg!Jascii, what happened?!
You're supposed to be the pro of the bunch
I thought, well I'll just barely miss that Koopa as long as I hit this exactly as I planned! What could possibly go wrong?!
Heh, -3 is better number than -6! 6 isn't even prime.

Nothing in the pre-shot trajectory takes wind into account.
Damn was gonna improve my time tonight. Oh well I did decent enough
Dropped out
Kouriozan I have no idea how you can stand playing this guy all the time lol
Just showed that you quitted the game.
Also 2 Gold Mario fighting for that last place :lol
Okay, that is what i figured. Sorry about the noobish questions but I only have the demo right now and the tutorial didn't explain much of anything except how to aim and swing.
So what is that grid then with the yellow arrow pointing down? It moves when I aim, but besides helping me determines the geography of the terrain, it doesn't seem to have any consistency as to its position relative to my balls trajectory?

Use it to gauge how far your ball will roll. If the yellow triangle is close to the ball's impact area, it's not going to roll much. And similarly, if it's quite far, expect much rolling.
Ahh, thank you!

I got an Albatross yesterday and I don't care how lucky it was, it felt amazing. It was hole 17 on the Seaside Course, I had a really long second shot so I took out something like a 3W and just let it rip with super backspin. It took a huge hop and the spin slowed it down just enough for it to fall into the hole. I immediately yelled for joy and tried to explain to my wife what had happened. For some reason I'm not so sure she fully appreciated the feat.
It was a good game! I saw some good shots too~
I also got a birdie after going OB on one of the cannon holes, lol
