Golf Club Attachments
Using a golf club attachment can add a whole other level of immersion and increase the enjoyment of the game. There are many different types of attachments out there and this page will guide you through some of the popular available options. Not all currently available attachments are profiled here as some attachments come and go.
If you own a 3D printer, or have a shop locally that will 3D print objects for you, there's a section below of links to freely available 3D printer files that you can download. You may need extra parts for these but if you're a DIYer, these may work well for you.
As with all golf club attachments: use them at your own risk; make sure they are secure; use the wrist strap; and follow the assembly instructions from the seller or the Thing maker.
Do I need an attachment to play VR golf games?
An attachment is not required for any VR golf game.
What is a preset?
A preset is a piece of code that the developers have built into the game that contains default club lengths and other settings specific to your particular attachment.
Is an in-game preset required for an attachment to work?
Generally, no. Attachments that point the controller straight down should work just fine with any golf game since you can manually set the club length to what works for you and no further adjustments are needed. Attachments with offsets that users are unable to modify in the settings will need to be accommodated via an in-game preset. Until a preset is available, you can use the Custom setting in Golf+ to move your virtual controller onto the golf club in whatever configuration you need for the attachment that you are using.
What's an offset? Why do some attachments need a preset, and others do not?
Every golf game gives users the ability to adjust club lengths. Some games have manual adjustment options, and other games simply stop the club head at the ground. Because of this, as mentioned above, any attachment that holds the controller straight down with the halo at the bottom usually only needs a length adjustment that fits the user and no further settings, so a preset is not needed.
How Do I Decide on an Attachment?
People are different. What works for one person may not work for another. Someone else's favorite may not be yours. Here are some things to consider when deciding on an attachment:
Do you have adequate space to swing a longer attachment?
Are you looking for something that adds a significant amount of weight?
Do you want to use it for multiple games?
Do you want it to have a real golf grip?
Below are links to some of the popular golf grips for the Oculus Quest. Links to their product pages are included.
I am not a seller of any golf attachment and do not endorse one attachment over another. Since I have used most of them, my opinions may creep into the descriptions. These are my personal feelings and user needs differ. Other info is based on my own research and from comments and discussions in various VR golf Discords, Reddit, and other social media outlets.
All links on this page directly go to the seller's page are not affiliate links. I do not benefit financially when you purchase anything using links on this page. This site is a labor of love and designed to be helpful to the VR golf community.
Weights of the controller and attachment may vary depending on shaft weight differences, battery weight, etc. Some attachment makers include the weight with and without the controller on their product page. If you have questions about that, please contact the maker of the attachment.
