TopTracer Virtual Golf Helpful Hints & Rules:

  • Once you arrive to your bay each team and player will be entered into the game play system. Staff will be by at 6pm to switch your screens to the event format. Please feel free to practice prior to 6pm. All game play modes are available, but please do not select the weekly selected Virtual Course for warm up.
  • Be aware of your aim point. The aim point is noted in the top left of your game screen and also by the color of the dotted line on the screen being color coordinated to the target you are aiming at.
  • Be aware of who's turn it is. It will automatically select the person who is furthest away. If you do hit out of turn the person who hit will be assessed 2 shot penalty. So please pay attention. Please immediately alert a staff member if this takes places.
  • There is no way to skip a player's turn. So please wait patiently if someone needs to step away.
  • No Mulligans are allowed. The system will note any mulligans taken. 
  • The rubber tee is only allowed to be used on tee shots.
  • You have the option of hitting off either pieces of turf for all shots.
