First of all, I'm not giving this 5 stars solely because of technical glitches. The WGT app has a fair amount of trouble reading the sensor initially. I've had problems with WGT crashing, and when it does, it doesn't save your round. And to get back, you have to go through
But that is pretty much it for the negatives where it hasn't met my expectations. As far as actual play, it has greatly exceeded them.
Accuracy "“
1. Club Distances "“ There are complaints about it giving lower distance than in real life. I found this to be true, until I realized that without an actual ball to hit, I was subconsciously not accelerating through the ball. I also saw a video review of someone saying the distances were way off. But he was only swinging about at about 65%. It may not be natural to swing like you're hitting a real ball, but once I did that, I've found the distances to be VERY close to what I hit in real life "“ certainly WAY, WAY better than I expected for something that only costs $250. Note I am using the stick, not a real club.
2. Shot Shape "“ I kept pulling to the left. What I learned is that if you rotate your club after addressing your club, this changes the face angle. That allows more many more possible shots, though I haven't explored this completely. It did read a punch shot that I did out of the trees, which was a very pleasant and unexpected surprise. Because it assumes you hit the club in the center, you aren't going to get really bad slices or hooks, but given that the courses to play are some of the hardest in the world, it's probably for the best.
3. Short Game "“ Putting is much more sensitive than in real life. Even changing to slow greens doesn't seem to matter. It's pretty easy for me to make nearly every 5 ft put, but the long putting is very touchy. It's a very fine line between sending a put 25 ft, and sending it 60. Below 25, it seems pretty consistent. A technically accurate chip shot doesn't seem to work, so I use a light pitch instead.
4. Rough and Sand Play "“ there doesn't seem to be any distance penalty on these, so they might as well be grass. That's not unlike a commercial simulator that I have been to.
Overall Realism - I shoot about 100-110 most real-life rounds, and about 95-100 on this, so overall, betwen more give and and some take, it's reasonably close. I play better from afar than in real life, but four-putting a couple holes per round because I was initially very far away is my usual downfall.

Yes, if you are a low handicapper trying to fine tune your game, this wouldn't be for you. If you are more recreational and would really like to have a very fun and satisfying golf fix, this is a GREAT bargain.

The game is pretty realistic except for the putting. The putting is horrible. We actually have to "chip" while on the green. Other than that, the actual hitting seams pretty accurate for the type of game it is.

I will say that since we airplay it to the TV, the whole family has fun with it. This has even got my 17 year old daughter wanting to try real golf. My 22 year old son wants to give it a go as well.

So far, this has given us hours of entertainment. Even our 9 year old son likes it. He is just mad that he can't match our drives. That shows the true accuracy in the game. Take a shot and buy it. For the money, it's worth it.

Purchased this golf sim for $239 and it arrived quickly. It came with a card that had a QR code on it however it was an invalid link. I had to look up a YouTube video to learn how to set it up. Once I figured out how to Bluetooth it to my phone and then mirror screening with my tv, it was easy to set up. It has a practice course that gives you all the details of your swing such as speed and distance. It does come with a strap to put on the club to wrap around your wrist: prevents club from flying out of your hands. There is a variety of golf courses to choose from and it allows for multiple players. After an hour of swinging the club, my arms were tired. Definitely happy with my purchase!

Hands down the Phigolf simulator is a no brainer purchase. I have been searching for a golf sim and have considered spending a LOT more money on a SkyTrak or Memo. I am so glad I did not! Phigolf works beautifully. I received it yesterday and after getting it setup (took 10 min) I played round after round for three hours! It is too much fun. I think the reason some people are having latency problems is their phones are too slow. This software in loaded and executed on an Android phone or iPhone, not a computer. You have to setup screen sharing of your phone screen to your tv which does have some latency but not enough to spoil the fun. I personally think the accuracy is fine. It's not going to have the same precision as a $2000 SkyTrak but it simulates my swings fine. The only con I can find is when playing on the WGT courses, putting is very bad. The Phigolf courses work better. You can setup a "concede" circle for putting and it works great. NO golf simulator does a good job with putting. Not even the very expensive ones. So do yourself a favor and buy one of these. You will forget about shelling out two grand for a SkyTrak.

Extremely easy to setup. Isn't nearly as accurate or as good of picture quality as it should be for the price but don't regret buying. Good simulator if you don't have a bunch of money to sink into one
