PhiGolf brings real golf swings and photorealistic world famous courses into your home


PhiGolf brings real golf swings and photorealistic world famous courses into your home

TLDR: The PhiGolf Mobile and Home Smart Golf Simulator bring real world golf swing mechanics into your home in the coolest virtual golf experience you’ve ever seen.

The odds are that you’ve never plunked a shot into the waters of the Swilcan Burn while playing the historic and world-famous St. Andrew’s Links in Scotland. Or that you’ve braved the uphill climbs and treacherous elevated greens of the stunning Spyglass course in Pebble Beach, Calif.

But as a golfer, wouldn’t it be cool to really feel like you’ve tackled the world’s most famous (or infamous) courses? And wouldn’t it be even better if the experience didn’t cost you the thousands it would take to reach, then play those courses reserved only for the rich and famous? PhiGolf ($224.97 right now from TNW Deals) can truly make a golfer’s dream come true.

First and foremost, PhiGolf is a golf simulator that can truly elevate the game of everyone from a weekend duffer to a Tour-eligible athlete. It combines the World Golf Tour (WGT) mobile game app, the top-ranked online video golf game around, with a sensor in an actual club that analyzes your swing and relays your swing data to the app. The app mirrors from a smartphone or tablet right to your living room TV — and with the smart stick, it accurately measures out the nuances of your real swing right into the photo-realistic game environment.

It’s just like playing your usual Friday round, only you never have to leave your living room. With the realistic swing mechanics and ultra-precise game reproduction, it’ll take the same skill and finesse used playing your local course as it will to conquer PhiGolf.

While you can easily use PhiGolf to perfect your swing on the driving range or tighten up your short game while putting, there’s also a multiplayer mode so you can play with family and friends. Even if they’re in remote locations, all you’ve got to do is sync up through the app — and you’re playing as you normally would.

And with Phigolf WGT Edition, players can challenge themselves on some of the most beautiful golf courses around the world right through the app. You and your friends can play 18 at Pebble Beach, Pinehurst, Bethpage Black, and yes, even Spyglass and St. Andrews.

Regularly priced at $249, you can now save almost $25 off the price of the complete PhiGolf Mobile and Home Smart Golf Simulator with the app and swing stick included for just $224.97. That’s the Memorial Day Sale price, so make sure to get in on that offer this week before it’s gone.
