David Leadbetters Golf PC Cheat Instuctions

It's best to start the game as a novice because although you won't be able to improve your handicap or save any profiles the lack of wind and the fixed swingometer means that you're able to concentrate on the basics

- course strategy and power. Strategy means summing up the dangers and choosing the safe route down the fairway which can be far from easy with some of the tortuous holes included in the game. When it comes to short pitching you need to learn from experience how much power to apply to get the distance you need. Otherwise you face fifty-foor putts to the equally tortuous greens. An old golfing adage says that the pros drive for show and putt for dough and to a large extent it's true. It's possible to waste a ridiculous number of shots on the greens so putting practise is essential. The most important thing to remember is that the halfway mark on the putting meter always represents the optimum power for a flat green whatever the distance of the putt. All you have to do is hit harder if the putt is uphill or less hard if it's downhill

- you can check the slope by clicking the right mouse button to see the path to the hole from side on. The other thing to worry about is the borrow

- use the 'grid' icon to see whether this is left-to-right (or right-to-left) and compensate by playing to the left (or right). When you start saving your profile and average of 1.5 putts per green is good but lower putting averages are possible - 1.0 is perfect.

THE 5 HARDEST HOLES:

1 - Ballybrook - Hole 18 (Par 5) 'Birchwood Corner':

This is one of the hardest par five on any of the
six courses so don't worry if it takes you some
time to make par.

First shot:

The fairway makes a dog-leg so use the far right
tee position to straighten out the angle. Don't
be afraid to drive over the wood but make sure you tee up on the top position to gain enough height. Follow this advice and you should be in a good position far enough down the fairway to be tempted by the green for your second shot.

Second shot:

If you have anything other than a perfect lie be
content with a short pitch to near the edge of the brook. From a good or fluffy lie you will be able to use a three wood to play to the right of the bunkers guarding the green. Be sure to pitch accurately onto the green because it's large and has very difficult contours.

2 - St Augustine - Hole 9 (par 3) 'Devil's Green':

Fourtunately unless you're a scratch player you'll be playing off the front tee which is a good 30 yards forward and gives you a clearer view of the green. Make sure you don't underclub and flirt with the brook and target the right side of the green because the steep slopes funnel the ball to the left. Don't worry if you end up off the back but try to pitch accurately otherwise you'll be three-putting.

3 - Buckland Heath - Hole 16 (par 4) 'Devil's Putt':

The fast sloping left-to-right green dictates the
strategy for this hole. Target the right-hand edge of the fairway beyond the bunker so that you're able to play onto the green. Aim directly at the flag and use a slightly under-powered pitching wedge

- you should end up pinhigh but slightly beneath
the cip for an easy birdie putt.

4 - Fenham Valley - Hole 18 (par 5) 'Jacob's Lake':

First shot:

The big lake looks threatening but keep your cool
and raise your tee and it's easy to clear. You should pitch over to the left-hand side of the fairway to give a good view of the green.

Second shot:

For the brave a three wood over the trees and risking the bunkers is possible but the green is very small. Always check the green before your shot to see if the flag is on the closer tier or the lower back tier. It's best to play a long iron short of the bunkers and then pitch accurately to the pin.

5 - Mountsummer Pont - Hole (par 5) 'Old Lumpy':

First shot:

This is the links course and the fairways tend to
be very bumpy. This fairway kicks balls to the left so aim for the extreme right hand edge and hit a driver with some overswing to make good distance. Hopefully you're left a second shot from the centre of the fairway

- if you end up too far to the left then you have an awful approach over tall trees and a deep pot bunker.

Second shot:

Anywhere on this course you should watch out for
sloping lines which make your stance more awkward
and mean you can't hit the ball so hard. Always
check the power curve on the swingometer first.
Here you're likely to be on an upslope so take more club

- a three wood perhaps - and aim for the right-hand edge of the green.
