Gameplay

Golf: Tee It Up! has simple game mechanics designed for approachability. The two joysticks allow for aiming while the distance the ball is hit and accuracy are controlled by three presses of a single button. The other major control mechanic is called focus. This allows you to boost your maximum distance or even alter the flight of the ball mid-flight to hit that perfect spot.

Golf: Tee It Up! gameplay

Players can play online with Xbox Live. The game is relatively short with only three total playable courses. Two 18-hole courses are included with Golf: Tee It Up!, Caribbean and Parkland. Caribbean is the easier of the two and based on any number of tropical resorts. Parkland is very loosely based on St Andrews Links including stone ruins and obstacles.[1] On September 3, 2008, an expansion course, Desert Course, became available on Xbox Live as downloadable content.[2]
