Got this. Added a spectacularly average score to the weekly tournament, in my defense it's my second day of owning/playing it and haven't got fully adjusted to it. Seeing everyone else's shot placement is nice, although slightly demoralising if you're doing poorly.
The game's decent, although years of Everybody's Golf have made switching to a different golfing mechanic feel unnerving & strange.
I can't get the mountain course coin 2 challenge. I can use the whirlwind to get the coin floating in space.. but can I get near enough to the pin to pull of the putt? Can I fuck.
I did that this evening. Get the tornado, and then try and land just to the left of the fence line. That will mean when you use the whirlwind you should be close to in-line with the hole.
I think you need to go for a wedge club to get the coin as well, just make sure it is spinning before making the shot (indicating it will be collected) and that you're lined up to land on/near the green.
It was a tricky one for me too.

For some reason my save data for this has disappeared. Really annoying as I'd done all the castle club and about 25 of the challenges, lost all my coins to, ffs!
Shit. Guy on Eurogamer had the same thing happen, reckoned it was because he turned it off mid round. It hasn't stopped me turning it off mid round, mind.

Is interest in this waning since Mario Kart came out?
We had more people play in the 3rd Open than the first two. I've extended this one to two weeks though so there less of a time restriction on us to find time for it in between karting.
I'd gone off it before then. At the risk of sounding like a stuck record, I hate the fact that you can enter a tournament as many times as you like and even restart if you mess up.
Having said that, I enjoy the tournament on here, it's just the official Nintendo ones that I can't bring myself to play.
Would also be great if we could manage a live round or two sometime.
