Your creation is pretty awesome, especially if it works for you! Thanks for sharing. I'm sure this will inspire a number of other creations!
Did you have to choose a smaller club size now that the wand is a bit further away from your hand?
But I'll definitely do some fine tuning/different tests and let you know what's going on and how that ends up working...just had to play a round with it though cause it was just cool and it cost me only 7 dollars in clubs at a 2nd hand store.
Greens are still fast it seems but I see you are working on that....BUT I have a putter I got as well...going to strap a vive controller onto that and see how realistic we can get it. Then I can use this controller for driving/irons, and then just pick up the putter in the corner when I am on the greens? Only thing I use the second controller for now is hang it on the neck of a beer bottle so I know where that is without taking off the headset.
Thanks for the game by the way and keep up the good work!!! I gotta take this to work and show all the golf nuts....
Being able to stand on the edge of the green to read it is a delight even tho the screen door effect sucks and the vive head set never gets any comfier hurry up sony and bring this out on psvr but make headsets first
Im a bit suspicious about how accurate the vive system can be at measuring these fast swings
looking at the blue green/red line i thinks only 4-5 measurements are ebing taken
PsychoChem, do keep us posted as to how you're progressing with your tweaking and tuning using your club mod. I use a SimStix club adapter for my Move and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 13 on the PS3, and I even added some lead tape to the body of the frame that held the Move to give if close to the feel of the mass of a real club... it helped out tons for me! Good luck with it though; I'm sure a lot of people will be interested in reading your experience with this!
John - Do you use a screen on the floor + in front of you with an HDMI splitter or something to use First Person view on TW + Move?
No, I found that it isn't necessary. I do place a golf ball in the floor, where it would be in my stance. This gives me a focal point and I do much better with it. When I swing the SimStix/Move, I keep my eyes on the ball until after I've made 'contact'. When I look up at the screen during my follow through, the flight of the ball looks pretty authentic.
Do you still play TW?
I just fired up the Move + TW14 and it immediately reminded me how much I prefer it to the newer Rory offering. They made a big step in the wrong direction IMO (beside Frostbite graphics I guess)
Hey John! I'll definitely post more information. I have been swamped the past 2 days and have not had time to put out some more information on this. I might actually end up making a video showing some tests of the controller later this week after I can record it!
Hey Psychochem, there was a link shared the other day by Nate278 with someone on Etsy selling something like this. Is this you? We're hoping it's you! ;)

Unfortunately Amazon shows it currently unavailable, so hope they didn't quit production.

Hey guys, nope that is not me but I am ecstatic someone is out there making stuff like this! I had no desire to spring up any sort of business at the moment (too much work for now :) love my job and my free time hobbies!) and was just hoping my posting my ideas would just drive some innovation. If they saw it and did, good for them I hope they make some extra scratch and you guys ship a lot more copies of the Golf Club VR! And then we get some more awesome VR games I can buy...it's win win all around :).
Hi Craig! Big fan of the game you guys have made! This is actually my little startup I've been working on! (VRMerch) I have google analytics tied to my etsy store so I saw a lot of hits from this steam post. My younger brother really loves golf and VR so he asked if I could look into making a mount for him. I'm more about tennis but I've tested these mounts in the Golf Club VR and they DEFINITELY make it a better experience. Being able to hold the handle like a real golf club gave me so much more accuracy. I initially offered these mounts in 12-24 inch handles but looking back now I'll probably change the handles to 8inch and 12 inch because it seems the shorter the handle the better. Plus I was knocking a lot of stuff over in my room with the 12 inch, I can't imagine the damage I could do with a 24! If you guys have any questions feel free to ask. Also the mounts are cheaper on our website :D
CraigC here (personal account) we did order one from your website to give it a go in the studio. We appreciate you making an exception and shipping to Canada for us. We'll be sure to let you know our thoughts once we've been able to play a few rounds with it.
