This first golf game published for the SNES features an 18-hole course displayed via a top-down view, with an overhead map to help plan where shots should go. Once the best club is selected based on its potential distance, hook or slice can be added to curve around trees or fairway doglegs. Swings are controlled via a three-click meter; one click starts the meter in motion, the second sets the power level, and the third sets accuracy.
