Microsoft Golf 2001 Edition Submitted by: rickHH Hints: ------ At Pro or Championship skill levels, Golf 2001 offers stern punishment to those who overpower their backswing and then miss the snap point. The better course of action is to keep your shot conservative and stay on the fairway. When going with the Powerstroke swing method, do whatever you can to slow the speed at which you must move your mouse. Choosing a longer-hitting club is a good idea, but your best option is to head for the System Settings area and raise the Powerstroke Sensitivity. This will elicit more power from a slower-moving mouse and allow you to keep the speed a bit more manageable. Make use of Golf's on-course Clubs menu and the shot options it provides. Punch and flop shots really do help you when chipping onto severely angled greens or hacking your way over particularly imposing berms. As is the case with most golf games that incorporate a mouse movement swing option, using a ruler or other straight-edge as a guide for your mouse will help keep your shot from hooking or slicing. This is blatant cheating, of course, and is recommended only to those who are already morally bankrupt.
