Hot Shots Golf(R) Fore! Official Strategy Guide

Rating:
Summary: Very nice to look at, but very little to improve your game
Review: I love Hot Shots Golf 3 and its successor, Hot Shots Golf Fore. I'm pretty good at the game as I win a fair number of tournaments, but I can't seem to take it to the next level and get those -18 scores that you see people talking about on the net all the time (I still have yet to get a hole in one on either game, although I've been close many times). So I picked up the strategy guide for Fore to see if it would help.

I have to say that the book is well made with lots of color on high quality paper, but the only thing that helped me here was some of the tips on how to play certain holes, especially the ones that gave me trouble. Each of the game's courses (I believe there are 13 in this game) are layed out hole by hole and a startegy for playing each hole is given for both beginners and advanced players. But what I would have liked to see was a listing as to which characters are best suited for a particular course and what is the best equipment (clubs and balls) for the course. It wasn't a bad purchase, but I saw strategy guides on the net for HSG3 that were much more helpful.
