CREATE YOUR OWN PLAYER!
You can use the Character Edit feature to create up to four of your own players. You can also groom these characters by collecting Bonus Points.
You can use ready-made characters as well. See page 20 for details of the characters available.
CHARACTER EDIT
First, select the "Character Edit" option from the Main Menu.
When you select the "Character Edit" option and specify a character, the screen shown on the left will be displayed. Press the △ button to call up the Character Setup feature and improve your character's skills.
The first time you create a character, you get ten points. For every two Bonus Points, you can raise your character's status by one level.
Distribute your points wisely and groom your character as you see fit.
There will be a choice of four files: select an empty one. If you want to re-edit a character you created previously, align the cursor with the file in question and press △ button to delete the old character.
Specify your character's name, gender, and other features. When you have finished, select "Save" to save your work to a memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2).
UPGRADE YOUR PLAYER USING BONUS POINTS
EARNING STARS
When you score a Birdie or Eagle in either Tournament or Stroke Mode (both of which are single-player modes), you earn a STAR. Each STAR is worth one bonus point. Collect as many as possible, and make your player a force to be reckoned with.
Aim for as many Birdies and Eagles as possible!
Be careful when upgrading your character's status. Once upgraded, a character cannot revert to his or her former status!

HITTING THE BALL
In "Eagle Eye Golf", the right analog stick is used to hit the ball. The key is to learn how to shoot the ball as straight as possible, which you will learn in this section.
Before you hit the ball, move the left analog stick right or left to set the "address", i.e. direction of the shot.
1. Once you have set the address, move the right analog stick down to set the power meter in motion.
2. When the Power Gauge has filled up far enough for the distance you want to cover, MOVE THE RIGHT ANALOG STICK UP! Make sure you stay inside the Impact Zone.
3. How was that? Good Job! Nice Shot!
Are you having trouble hitting the ball properly, no matter how you try? Perhaps you've invited a friend to play a game with you, but, being inexperienced, you find you just can't hit the ball straight. No problem: just select the Beginner Club and Beginner Ball options. Your player's status may drop a little, but at least you won't have to worry about staying inside the Impact Zone!

PUTTING
In 'Eagle Eye Golf", the gradient of the green is expressed by differences in the color of the gridlines, and by the white dots running along the gridlines. Read the following information carefully so that you will be able to read the green accurately.
The white dots on the grid flow from high points to low points. The steeper the green is, the more numerous the dots. Note that on the gentlest slopes, the dots don't flow at all.
When you putt on a green that slopes to the right, the ball will roll to
