Make sure all the preliminary selections are made, then everything is
all set. Keep an eye on the "power meter" at the bottom of your scrren,
and hit the ball by pushing the shot key. You can control the distance
the ball flies by gauging the power level of your stroke.

When you land on the green, your screen will show a view of the green
with your ball in position. The club selection on the green is
automatic, the computer will choose a putter for you. Sink the putt by
pushing the shot keywhile keeping a sharp eye on the power meter.

IMPROVING YOUR TECHNIQUE
========================

. Practice until you have a good feeling for the proper club and the
right amount of power to use.
. Then, start trying to compensate for the windage.
. Be cautious when you are on the green. Learn to read the direction of
the lie of the grass and how "fast" the green is.
. Hole No. 5 offers the chance of a hole-in-one.

GOOD LUCK!
