times it is the smarter play to only use a little backswing, so as to not overshoot the ball.
BALL PATH – The path that the trackball is rolled will determine the path of the ball. The ball can either be sliced, hooked, or right on target. Adjust your aim using the Right and Left Buttons, and use one of the combinations described under Shot Direction above.
LIES AND GROUND SURFACES – Depending on the surface of the ground that the ball is laying on, your Power Percentage could be af- fected for better or worse. Surfaces include: Tee, Fairway, Sand, Buried, Cabbage, Rough, Fringe, Green, Cart Path and O.B. (Out of Bounds).
Once the ball is hit from the Tee View, the camera will follow the ball and then switch to Bird’s Eye View to follow it until it stops. If the ball is on the Green, remember to compensate for slope.
When a hole is complete, the score card will be shown, with ranks for all the players. When the 18th hole is complete the score card will be displayed again.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
TV
To locate your auxiliary channel, which is usually not 3 or 4, but a gam- ing channel found between 2 and 99 (example 2, 1, 0, 99), first try 00 to see if it is the auxiliary channel. Channels downwards from 3 until a Line 1 or Line 2, Video 1 or Video 2, Front, Aux, AV, etc., appears on screen, then push the power button on the game and it should automatically come on if you have selected the correct channel. If this does not work, another way to determine your auxiliary channel is to take a look at your television remote. There may be a button on the remote that may take you directly to the correct channel. The buttons you are looking for may be labeled Input, AUX, AV, Line, TV/Video, or Video. If your remote has one of these buttons, turn your television back to Channel 3 and select that button. The power button on the game should be turned on in order for the game to appear on the television. If your television remote does not have any of these buttons, and channel 00 is not working, you may need to search the main menu for a way to determine your auxiliary channel. If none of these methods have helped you locate your auxiliary channel, you may need to check your owner’s manual and/or contact a local television repair company.
VCR
When connecting to a VCR, you must first start with a blue background showing on your television screen. To obtain a blue screen, try inserting a videotape into the VCR, let it start to play, then hit the stop button. This may give you a blue screen, then you can channel down to your auxiliary channel. If the blue screen still does not appear, try entering your TV and/or VCR main menu and see if it gives you options to select a blue screen background. Many times if you enter the main menu on your television you can change the setting from cable to video and display a blue screen. Also if you have an older television, you may locate a hid- den door on your television that has color, picture, horizontal, vertical, and cable, antennae buttons. If your television includes this panel, you can select the antennae/cable button and see the blue screen appears. If you have tried all of these options and are still unsuccessful connect- ing the console, then you may need to check your VCR owner’s manual or contact the manufacturer to find out how to set up your VCR for console games.
Remember, you can’t play our games through a cable box or satellite, so if you own one of these make sure it is turned off before connecting the game. You can connect our games through DVD players with the same connection as a VCR.
If you still have difficulty with setup or operation of your game, please call our players helpline mentioned at the end of this manual.
