Mario Golf: World Tour |OT| Bring Cursing to the Fore with Mario and Friends!

Wow, the coins in this game seem to not mean much once you enter a couple tournaments. I'm pretty sure I have enough coins to buy everything in the game multiple times!

I just paid Kammy $10,000 to change my swing type and nothing changed... excet for the fact that he took the money. :-/

Am I missing something?

A little fluff between the ears never did any harm...

Check your club. They can alter your swing. I have a right handed draw, and I got a club with a fade, and it made me hit straight PLUS lower my yardage by 10. So press X to see what the club's draw or fade modifier is. And go to one with no swing direction modifier to see your natural swing.

Two hole in ones on Bowser's Castle, was heading for my best score yet when I got +6 and +4 for the last two holes. Can't even explain how the hell I kept going out of bounds. Here I thought I was getting better at this game...

Also, all the Shy Guys everywhere keep reminding me how much I wish he was playable :(

Is there an easier way to get Bowser star coin 2 than to hit the bomb and hope you don't go ob?

Edit: Well, got a decent placing after bomb blast and got it.

I ended up changing clubs down so the ball trajectory comes in high and you can put heavy back spin on and roll backwards away from the ball and use the item on the next shot.
 
Question: now that I've won the 3 main course championships in Castle Club mode, what is my next objective? I'm feeling a bit lost. Thanks.
 
Unlock everything else by beating the challenges in solo player mode, and the 1 on 1 putt challenge in Club mode.
1) What do you mean challenges? Like the target practice modes or something else? One time I saw some kind of challenge at Peach's course, but I failed it and then I couldn't do it again.

2) Where do you do the 1 on 1 putt challenge?

Thanks.

On the main menu, choose the left option (Quick Play), then Single Player, and you'll see a Challenges option at the bottom.

Four hours from now, NeoGAF BeachTrip will be over and the third and final tournament in (what I am calling) the NeoGAF Grand Tournament Trilogy will begin.

Fun fact: Whilst about 180 people took part in NeoGAF EarlyBird, NeoGAF BeachTrip has only had 80 participants. Big drop-off!

Maybe the top 50 scores scared a bunch of players off until they could get better.

Hm I came in over the hundreds during the early bird and my personal goal was to be within double digits... I feel less accomplished now :(

So I just got ripped off in a cheek cheep lagoon costume challenge. Had 1:04 left on final hole, I did it just as quick as any other hole, but my time jumped to 8 minutes when I made the hole. Wtf. I didnt use more than 30 seconds, let alone a minute 4.

Anyone down for some rounds in the GAF lobby?

Just finished the third course's challenges. Damn, some of those were devious. Can't imagine what the moon coins are like.

Do you have to beat 18 hole one on, one in to unlock sky island challenges?

I just did the 9, said I unlocked it in Mario golf, but challenges aren't there.

No, it unlocked for me when I did the 9-hole challenge. Make sure you are looking in the right place - Sky Island is the 4th course, before all of the 9-hole ones.

For anybody still wondering the "correct" way to do this, you just lob the ball over the bomb on your second shot. That's it. You can even grab the bullet bill on the second shot on the way up and it's actually easier if you do it that way since you'll have more room to get over.

I've seen some of the weirdest solutions to that challenge on the internet and it puzzles me since I did the challenge multiple times to check that it's as simple as just lobbing it over the bomb. It is.

Never managed to find time to submit a second score, I think I could have easily broke the top 10 again with a clean run. Ah well, on to the next one!
