The physics in golf +, walkabout mini golf and eleven table tennis are mind blowingly amazing! I also hook up my vr headsets to my pc and the driving / racing sims are also completely mind blowing. I never get bored or driving a Cadillac around Daytona at night time! I love VR!
Yeah it's honestly wild how good it is. Thats been next on my VR checklist - I havent done any racing stuff, and really interested in potentially doing it. Also curious to try out something like Microsoft Flight Simulator.
@@breakingeighty better have a pretty decent computer! I would say a 3070/ti min and a nice Ryzen 5800 or above or 12-14th gen Intel chip. Also do it wirelessly. This is truly a game changer via Air Link or Virtual Desktop(the better more consistent way)
The weight of the club can be replicated almost exactly with the right accessory. Checkout Deadeye's Drivr. They have removable weights in it to get the exact weight of your clubs. Now you're basically at the driving range
Yup just got the Drivr Elite and it's incredible. I would definitely stick with the graphite shaft. I've read reports that the new steel shaft version is just too heavy
Great video! I have3 been a Quest owner since the Quest1 days and a Golf+ user since it's release. You conveyed the fun of the simulation perfectly! One thing I would add though, you mentioned the weight difference, but you didn't say anything about the controller adaptors like Helloreal and Yezro that have weights that make the controller feel the weight of your clubs. This adds a whole new dimension to the immersion. I also like when you said if you have a slice IRL you will prob. have one in the game. This is true and a testament to how well this game simulates real golf.
My friends group started with walkabout mini golf and every weekend we have a set tee time to gather online and have fun. We now started playing Ultimate Swing Golf and are planning on trying Golf+ Great device for bringing friends together
I gripped my control with the same pride grip I use in my clubs and besides not feeling the impact of hitting a ball it’s pretty much the same as real golf. Of course you miss out on scents, the feeling of wind and cold, the hit to your wallet that come from green fees and probably a few other minor elements.
Thanks for the code - i just got a quest 3 a couple months ago and have been interested in golf+ but 30 is steep if it wasn't good. 15 (accompanied with a solid review) is infinitely more of an instant purchase.
Cmon, 15 bucks, everyone wants great games for the quest, but complain about a 30 dollar game. Great games are worth the price. Stop complaining about 15 dollars, geez
[Golf+ Pro Tour Player] Love your review, as a suggestion for new players - Many of the Tour (Golf+) players use a small rug to stand on so if they start to move out of the play area, you will feel the difference with your feet so you know you need to readjust your position. Also many of the Pro Tour players use significantly weighted accessories to reduce the negative effect on their real game.
I play a lot of Golf+ as well. I use the DeadEye VR swing stick. You can weight it and it has a decent length. It feels about as heavy as my 7 iron. The only issue I find in relation to real golf is that you don't really know when you hit it fat or thin, at least I don't think it does. The unfortunate thing is the VR swing stick doesn't fit the Quest 2 controller. Great breakdown of the game!
Thanks for the review - finally a review from someone who knows what they are talking about. Only downloaded a day ago and already hooked and so is my partner. Thank you for the discount code, much appreciated. We are in Canberra (ACT) Australia and its winter here so great to keep my swing working and love the physics and of course the courses. Looking forward to more great tips from the channel. I hope golf+ adds a Australian Course and we could have a world Gold+ Challenge cup.
Thank you for the review. I’ve been toying with the golf + for my Q3. And the discount code was a sign to buy it. Thank you for the content and hope to see you in there. 👍
I'm wondering if there is a setting where you can input your club head speed so that the carry distances in the game would be close to your real life carry distances. What about the short game? For example if you are in a greenside bunker would you use real life technique?
yeah after having a bad round i tried playing and i had the same problem with pushing it and slicing haha, driver can cause some crazy ways of attacking the golf ball haha
I still play Tiger Woods golf on the original Wii with a Wii remote+. Couldn't be happier. I heard there is a VR branch of Dolphin. Might be worth checking out 🙄
I absolutely love golf + now that meta is phasing out quest 2 maybe the designers of this game will be able to amp up the graphics a little bit in the quest 3.
That's not how they phase out something. They just don't make new games that support the quest 2. They don't ramp up old games so the quest 2 doesn't work anymore.
@@jamesordwayultralightpilot I don't think that's what he was saying or implying at all. I read it as follows: - Meta is phasing out the Quest 2, and since the game is so popular maybe (and hopefully) the developers can optimize it for the Quest 3. Nothing to do with how you said it. That's how I read his comment.
I might just need to pick up that golf grip. Have you played any Walkabout Mini Golf using it? I play that more than Golf+ at this point in time. Cheers!
I've been really impressed with how well the company has been supporting the game. From updates, to new courses, to the whole Tour+ league - it's etremely well done. Especially for a VR game, as many don't seem to have the resources to support so heavily.
Good grief, all the videos have become annoying between selling stuff and ads! And I'm just simply wanting to know if 128k can handle Table Tennis, Golf, and a few other games or do I need the 512K version? Can anybody in the World answer that one simple question?
Yep, you'll be totally fine with 128 for those. I have a 128, and have all those, plus asgards wrath which is huge for a VR game, and still have plenty of space.
@@breakingeighty Wow, thanks for responding buddy, hard to get now days on YT, so one more question if you may and I'll leave you alone, if I max out that 128k does that mean game over for getting anything else, that's all that headset can handle....next?
@TheAirheaded1 i just got a 128 so I can answer your question but I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, if you max out the 128 it's game over for everything else? I mean it's out of storage...there's no way of expanding it afaik you'll have to pick apps to free space
Hey nice video for the VR newbies and also VeteRans (Pun intended). You summarized perfectly the current status of the vr market, and explained very nicely the game, which personally motivated me to buy this game. I love Walkabout Minigolf and also love golf videogames since the early days of PlayStation 1 (also tried Mario Golf and other gameboy and NES games), although I have never played real golf in my life. My question is: do you know how much time is the discount code gonna be available? I'm waiting for Meta credit to appear on my wallet, and then use it to buy the game at even a lower price. Do you happen to have that information? Thanks again for the video and greetings from Mexico.
I'm gonna try to play Tiger Woods on the Nintendo Wii through Dolphin emulator in Hi def and VR...when I get around to it. I remember it was just the best golf game I ever experienced with a Wii remote+ back in the day. I'll see how it goes.
I don't have a treadmill, but I can walk around in my boundary, and I can teleport from tee to the pin. The thing is you still have to press the trigger to address the ball, so even teleporting to the ball you will still have to press the trigger and it will line you up itself. So, waling the fairway will not gain you anything at the moment. When treadmills get to be more mainstream, I bet Golf+ or another golf game will enable that feature. It's great at the moment though, that if you have a large play area, you can walk around your ball and read the green. I find this helps me to understand better how the green breaks from a different POV.
Yeah, it does a surprisingly good job of replicating whatever your actual swing is. So if you slice, it will slice. Although there are different levels you can set this to, as well. So if you want more of an arcade experience, you can set it to be much more forgiving.
Tried Golf+ on my quest 2 with a weighted VR club. Returned the club and requested a refund on the program on the first day. Just did not work for me. In my opinion the club and the program need a lot of work.
I was trying Golf+ but...Walkabout mini golf is my favourite. 😃
I usually only use my Quest 3 for Table Tennis so this will definitely add another use for my Quest. This looks like a blast.
Yeah if you like table tennis, you'll definitely enjoy this. Also, Eleven Table Tennis is fantastic...
Oh you should try flying a jet in VTOL vr, or racing a car on a full grid of real people. It does more than you think.
Racket Club is amazing and never would have given it a chance if not for the free trial.
Walkabout Mini Golf is great in VR.. I would prefer to play that over real mini-golf any day.
FACTS
Honestly, this is one of the best reviews for anything I've ever watched. Thank you!
You do a great job, man!
My deadeye DriVR Elite - Adjustable VR Weighted Golf Club came in today and I get to test it out with Golf + tonight. Super excited.
The physics in golf +, walkabout mini golf and eleven table tennis are mind blowingly amazing! I also hook up my vr headsets to my pc and the driving / racing sims are also completely mind blowing. I never get bored or driving a Cadillac around Daytona at night time! I love VR!

@@breakingeighty MSFS in VR is unbelievable. If you haven't tried it yet, please do!
VR is absolutely crazy and it hold massive potentials that have yet to show
its problem is always going to be overheating the second you put a game on there like gta its going to literally fry your brain.
The weight of the club can be replicated almost exactly with the right accessory. Checkout Deadeye's Drivr. They have removable weights in it to get the exact weight of your clubs. Now you're basically at the driving range
Appreciate this comment! I haven't dug in too deep on accessory options.
second this. can never go back to a weightless accessory
Yup just got the Drivr Elite and it's incredible. I would definitely stick with the graphite shaft. I've read reports that the new steel shaft version is just too heavy
Just wanted to say that - there are also adjustable weights on it to make it to your taste - feels like metal or graphite shaft difference
@@oliverdeperalta yeah I’ve got all the included weights in mine. Makes it feel very similar to hitting my irons
Great video! I have3 been a Quest owner since the Quest1 days and a Golf+ user since it's release. You conveyed the fun of the simulation perfectly!

The swing attachment you want to get is the Deadeye with the weight on the end. It creates the feel of a real club.
Can you get it in stores and not just online?
@@JonathonTregre Just online. But the company is very responsive. I broke mine once. Totally my fault. They replaced it no charge. I did not even ask.
It was good enough for me to purchase a golf club stick for my controller which is a game changer
which one did you get? Are they expensive?
@@Healthy_Toki the best reviewed one was 99 which is crazy
@@Healthy_Tokithere’s Amazon ones for around $25, I use a beat saber stick that my sister doesnt use anymore.
You can go into options on golf+ and crank up the resolution much higher if your on a 3, i wonder if he did that
Have you played walkabout mini golf? Maybe not as cool but it's shockingly good/robust and the multiplayer is fun as hell
Yes! Totally agree, totally different style of game, but also very fun.
My friends group started with walkabout mini golf and every weekend we have a set tee time to gather online and have fun. We now started playing Ultimate Swing Golf and are planning on trying Golf+
Great device for bringing friends together
I like Walkabout but once I discovered Golf+ I nearly stopped playing anything else.
Also works with quest pro… keep in mind you may have more accurate shots using the pro due to more accurate cam system.
COUPON WORKED THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN!!! I've been literally souring the internet all day!
What is the coupon code?
I gripped my control with the same pride grip I use in my clubs and besides not feeling the impact of hitting a ball it’s pretty much the same as real golf. Of course you miss out on scents, the feeling of wind and cold, the hit to your wallet that come from green fees and probably a few other minor elements.
I really hope Golf+ will come to PCVR some day, the graphics will be fantastic !
I absolutely love 💕Golf+ on my Meta Quest 3 !!! I use the Yezro grip (90 degree adapter) Y11/Y13S and I have the best headstrap, BOBOVR S3 Pro.
Thanks for the code - i just got a quest 3 a couple months ago and have been interested in golf+ but 30 is steep if it wasn't good. 15 (accompanied with a solid review) is infinitely more of an instant purchase.

You can 3d print one of many adaptors and buy a 2$ club from used sports store. Cut shaft for a great VR club.

Does it have a swing coach? I barely know how to hold the club! 😂
I was so impressed that I immediately bought a grip/controller holder. It works too well, perfectly recreating my slice.
😂😂😂
yeah after having a bad round i tried playing and i had the same problem with pushing it and slicing haha, driver can cause some crazy ways of attacking the golf ball haha
Wow thank you for the code. I was able to get it for 15 bucks. So cool can’t wait to try it out
Is the distance realistic? Can u chunk it like real life?
Is it realistic based on your swing? Like can you hit shots fat and thin?
You can also play it on the Rift S too.
I still play Tiger Woods golf on the original Wii with a Wii remote+. Couldn't be happier. I heard there is a VR branch of Dolphin. Might be worth checking out 🙄
Do you need the accessories or can you just play with the controllers?

@@jbram63 for golf+?
Daily and weekly tournaments with rankings are a dream. Would be nice if they had prizes on offer as well like coffee mugs and t shirts

I made a golf club attachment by cutting the end of 1 of my old clubs off & 3d printing a moint for the the controller.. it's AMAZING in WMG!!!
@@ColtonGuindon I don't play golf irl, but if I did, I would totally fashion something onto the end of an old club to play VR golf.
Addicting isn't a word
There's also an entire Golf+ Discord server run by the creators of the game.

As far as I know it should be available indefinitely, but will update the description and written review if it goes inactive.
if it was released on Steam for PC the the graphics would be massively improved, but its a quest only platform...which makes me sad.
I'm gonna try to play Tiger Woods on the Nintendo Wii through Dolphin emulator in Hi def and VR...when I get around to it. I remember it was just the best golf game I ever experienced with a Wii remote+ back in the day. I'll see how it goes.
Hi great video,is there a facility to walk the fairways on a treadmill rather than teleport?
I guess if it doesnt you could walk 5 minutes on the treadmill between shots. 🤷🏻
Thanks for the video. Any idea how to use that discount code in the meta quest store? I am struggling to get it to work. Thanks.
i can tell you Golf+ is an awesome game
if one of the main flaws is the weight of the 'club' compared with real clubs you can fit a simple 'faucet hose weight' to it
I don't have a treadmill, but I can walk around in my boundary, and I can teleport from tee to the pin. The thing is you still have to press the trigger to address the ball, so even teleporting to the ball you will still have to press the trigger and it will line you up itself.

does it recognize a real swing... with slice or hook based on the move???
Yeah, it does a surprisingly good job of replicating whatever your actual swing is. So if you slice, it will slice. Although there are different levels you can set this to, as well. So if you want more of an arcade experience, you can set it to be much more forgiving.

Im gonna try this and bring myVR headset to Top Golf! video this week
Great video btw !
Going to need to see this 😂
@@GOLFPLUSVR love you 🤣💜 I’ll lyk when uploaded appreciate u king
I purchased this game over a year ago but now it says start free trial and not launch?? I already payed £30 for this game!!!
18mins video, 7 secs of actual game play
This. 👎
Can you play offline?
yes, but you wont be able to compete in tournaments or take part in other online only features.
Tried Golf+ on my quest 2 with a weighted VR club. Returned the club and requested a refund on the program on the first day. Just did not work for me. In my opinion the club and the program need a lot of work.
The promotion didn't work, do you have another?
Ah sorry about that! I'll check with the team over there and get back to you!
Just checked, and its still working! Maybe double check and make sure you spelled everything correctly.
Worked, PayPal account was conflicting with meta login, Thanks 👍
Thanks for the informative and honest review, Sean! You can check out more about GOLF+ at www.youtube.com/@GOLFPLUSVR
Appreciate you guys! Keep up the good work!
Give us a 20min review while showing us 3min of footage. Great vid man.
are these not bad for your eyes ? the screen is almost touching your eyes .
Do any of you guys know if this controller works for lefties?
If you and your friends want to develop PTSD together, Into the Radius 2 has co-op lol.
Its the best game
I dont like that you only get 3 courses for the base game.
Loser, stop complaining, if you dont support the game maker. Then guess what? There are no games. They gotta make money
Geez
8:37 Buying the game is spending "real world" money for a digital fake world. Buying digital items for that same game is no different.
Putting only works while actively looking at the ball.Not my putting style so Golf+ no good. Golf 5 does deliver though
Won’t this mess up your actual golf game?
The Golf Club VR is MUCH better than Golf+
Really? 😐
Pity you didn't show the game
You’re on TH-cam
Wheres the gameplay? All talk...
I returned my quest 3 because the graphics suck.
Horrible waste of time. Show me the experience.
Slow, slow, slow, slow.
