- [INTRO],INTR001.11a
- Hi.~ I'm Gary Player.~
- And this is The Golf Pro.~
- It's very different from any golf simulation you will ever have played before . . . ~~because you actually hit the ball . . .~~
- using your mouse just like a golf club.~~~
- ~
- That's why The Golf Pro is special . . .~~
- ~
- By the end of this lesson you'll have learned how to hit your first golf strokes.~~
- ~
- Come on in . . .~~
- ~~~~
- [NEWHANDED],NEWHAND.11A
- If you're right handed, ~click the right button.~~~
- If you're left handed, ~click the left button.~~
- [CHOOSEHANDED],INTR002.11a
- If you're right handed, ~click the right button.~~~
- If you're left handed, ~click the left button.~~
- [DEMOSWING1],INTR003.11a
-
- Here's a swing played as you'll see it in the simulation..
- [DEMOSWING2],INTR004A.11a
-
-
- Now, look at the mouse to see how it moves....~
-
- [DEMOSWING3],INTR004B.11a
-
-
- The movement of the mouse is linked directly to the movement of the swing~~~
- [DEMOSWING4],INTR005.11a
-
-
- Move the mouse back...~And I take a backswing...
- [DEMOSWING5],INTR006A.11a
- ~~
- Move the mouse forward....~And I start the forward swing..... ~and hit through the ball
- [DEMOSWING6],INTR007.11a
-
-
- Here it is again...
-
- [DEMOSWING7],INTR008.11a
-
-
- The secret to a great swing is in the rhythm and the timing...~~
- It's no different in The Golf Pro.~~
- [DEMOSWING8],INTR009A.11a
-
-
- See how the movement is a flowing movement, ~just like my golf swing.
- [USERSWING],INTR010.11a
- ~
- ~
- Now, you try and swing in time with me...~~~
- [MASTEREDHIT1],INTR013.11a
-
-
- So, now you've mastered how to hit the ball.~~
- That's Great!~~
-
- Most of my first time pupils take longer than that.~~
-
- But golf isn't QUITE that easy!~~ Each shot has three basic elements:~~
-
- [MASTEREDHIT2],INTR014.11a
-
-
- Power -~ Which determines how far the ball travels. . .~~~
- [MASTEREDHIT3],INTR015.11a
-
-
- Curvature -~ Which results in the ball moving to the right or left during its flight. . .~~~
- [MASTEREDHIT4],INTR016.11a
-
-
- and~~
-
- Loft -~ which governs the height and backspin of the shot.~~~
-
- [READY1],INTR011.11a
-
-
- When you're ready,~ press the SWING button.
- [TOHITBALL],INTR023.11a
-
-
- To hit the ball, keep your mouse button pressed down throughout the swing.~~
- [POWER1],INTR017.11a
-
-
- Let's start with power . . .~
-
- The power of your shot depends on the backswing . . .~~
- [POWER2],INTR018.11a
-
-
- A small backswing leads to a low powered shot.~
- [POWER3],INTR019.11a
-
-
- A full backswing leads to a higher powered shot.~
- [POWER4],INTR020.11a
-
-
- The power also depends on your clubhead speed . . .~~~
- Move your clubhead slower, and the ball won't travel as far.~
- [POWER5],INTR021.11a
-
-
- But there's NEVER any need to swing too fast
- [POWER6],INTR022a.11a
-
-
- Now, you have a go . . . keeping your mouse button held down to hit the ball.~~
- [OVERSWING1],INTR024.11a
-
-
- When you take a very full backswing,~ you'll see the club begin to wobble.~~
- The more you pull back,~ the more power you'll get.
- [OVERSWING2],INTR025.11a
-
-
- But really big swings are worthwhile only if you move your club very accurately.~~~
- [OVERSWING3],INTR026.11a
-
-
- See if you can hit a controlled, high powered shot.~~
- [CURVATURE1],INTR027.11a
-
-
- The second element of the shot is curvature . . .~~~
-
- In The Golf Pro you can alter the shape of your shot just like you do in golf . . .~~
- [CURVATURE2],INTR028.11a
-
-
- Open up your mouse~~
- [CURVATURE3],INTR029.11a
-
-
- and the ball will fade . . .~~
- [CURVATURE4],INTR030.11a
-
-
- Close your mouse~~
- [CURVATURE5],INTR031.11a
-
-
- and the ball will draw . . .~~
- [CURVATURE6],INTR032.11a
-
-
- The same thing will happen if you don't hit your shot straight back and forward.~
- [CURVATURE7],INTRO33.11a
-
-
- So, if you want to hit a straight ball, move the mouse straight back and forward~
- [CURVATURE8],INTRO34.11a
-
-
- And if you want to curve the ball, open or close your clubface.~~~
- [CURVATURE9],INTR050.11a
-
-
- Try and see if you can keep your wrists locked and move your clubface squarely across your mouse mat.~~
- [LOFT1],INTR036.11a
-
-
- The third element of the shot is loft. . .~~~
- [LOFT2],INTR037.11a
-
-
- You can alter the amount of height and backspin of your shot by timing the release of your mouse button.~~
- [LOFT3],INTR038.11a
-
-
- If you release well before the ball, both the height and the amount of backspin increases.~
- [LOFT4],INTR039.11a
-
-
- If you release just behind the ball, the height and backspin decrease.
- [LOFT5],INTR040.11a
-
-
- So, if you want to hit the ball high, release early.
- [LOFT6],INTR041.11a
-
-
- And if you want to hit low, release later.
- [LOFT7],INTR042.11a
-
-
- See if you can alter the timing of your release . . .~~
- [LOFT8],INTR043.11a
-
-
- In the game - to make it easier at BEGINNER level - ~~
- If you keep the button pressed THROUGHOUT the swing,~ you'll still hit a shot with reasonable loft~~~
- [OUTTRO],INTR044.11a
-
-
- Well, that's a basic tour of The Golf Pro.~~
-
- If you want to, you can play the game straight away.~~
-
- But some time, why not come and join me for a lesson on the practice range?~~
- There,~ I'll teach you how to play all sorts of shots.~~
-
- In the meantime,~ here's a real golf hole for you to practice with until the sun goes down.~~
-
- Just like I used to do when I was learning how to be a champion.~
