Let me start by saying, I hate the Wii Sports golf game. The controls in it don't work well enough for me.
This game has controls which work excellent for me! Of course I cannot hit a perfect shot EVERY time, but I find that to be exceptionally realistic. It does help to follow some of the hints given in the manual, such as always swinging with two hands on the wii-mote.
I find the story lines to be very engaging and the matches are challenging, but not too hard. Unlockable items and characters keep coming at a regular enough pace that I keep playing just to see what I will get next. So far, I would say I have put about 5 hours into the story mode, and can say I probably am only 25% of the way through it.
There are plenty of items and customizations to work toward as well. Most of the items have to be unlocked by playing through the story mode. Most items will automatically add a certain amount to your stats. Further customization "slots" are given by some items and are shown by the number in parenthesis. For instance, Spin 2 (1) will automatically increase your spin by 2. However, you can further increase your spin by purchasing a customization for that character in the my room mode.
The one downside of the game to me was the fact that very little of the game is documented very well in the manual. However for someone who doesn't mind a little trial and error to figure things out for themselves, that isn't a big deal.
