  I was out of town last weekend visiting my son and he showed me his VR headset (Virtual Reality). He had a golf game on their called Golf+. It was partly developed by Top Golf, the PGA, and another company I can not remember.

   

  It was a very fun experience. I liked it so much as soon as I got home, I went out and got one for myself. Currently there are only 3 courses available. Wolf Creek, Valhalla, and one called Cliffs. What a great experience it would be if Top Golf could add the courses available here at WGT.

   

  Just for the record, I’m a much better player on this PC game vs the VR game. It puts a whole different strategy and skill set to play this game on VR.

  Coincidently, my Oculus Quest 2 arrived just 6 hours ago. Bought Golf+ and Wolf Creek add on. I should be breaking par in about 10 or 20...  years.  lol

  LOL. Yes, that's what I got also. The OQ2. It sure is a lot different than the PC/mobile game. I'd suggest to paly a few rounds in Novice mode to get used to swinging the controller. I've only had mine for 5 days and even though I suck, it's still fun and amazing graphics.

  Hi Dave,

   

  if you’ve already got a VR headset you can play WGT on it through Steam (through SteamVR). It won’t give you the ability to look left right up down like a true made for vr immersive game, but it will allow you to play WGT on your headset. 

  A quick google of steamVR will throw up a number of tutorials that’ll have you up and running in no time.

   

  Hope that helps buddy.
