Real World Golf

The joy of virtual golf is you don't even have to leave your house and you can leave your golf clubs in the bag. Real World Golf on PlayStation 2 lets players hold a foot-long plastic golf club and wear gloves attached to motion capture technology, so the movement with the gloves is reflected on-screen.

You can choose which set of golf clubs and golf drivers you want to use, ranging from amateur to professional. It's a great way to let loose with golf drivers and really practice going the distance.

Improve your game

The better you become, the more golf courses you can access with tournaments, match play and fun party games � or if you want to compete with a friend you can.

The great thing about virtual golf clubs is you don't have to be scared using golf drivers � probably the most intimidating of golf clubs and it's a great way to improve your confidence as well as being fun.

Visualization

Even for those of you who have never been ardent golf fans, these games might prove to be quite addictive. There is enormous attention to detail and tests show that players turn out to be better players and quicker learners on the golf course.

Although to have a truly great swing when you pick up golf drivers you need to be physically strong and powerful, playing with virtual golf clubs however can help aid visualization skills. A bit part of golf is about visualization and virtual golf games help with accurate simulations.
