chrisbrobs,
i really like where you are headed with this sir. the control mechanism is better than your first game. it allows fine control, without the weird bug i found in the first.
with this setup, you could have longer holes that go 'off' screen, with a minimap of the whole hole on screen. then, you can have a max force of swing, so that it would take several shots to get to the hole. or, you could just ignore me and keep doing the great work you are already doing...lol.
sports game do well, with men especially, because they have inherently built in suspense, competition and skill factors, that men respond to.
you have really improved upon what was already a very good game.
keep going.
