Gameplay

Other than bearing the name and likeness of Australian professional golfer Greg Norman, the game is distinguished from most other golf simulations by providing a hole-design mode in which the player can create and customize an 18-hole course. The cartridge contained a battery back-up that allowed the player to save their created course. [4] Along with the hole-design mode, there are four pre-set courses, taking place in England, Scotland, the United States, and Japan.[ citation needed ]

The game made use of the NES Four Score, which allows for four-player gameplay.[ citation needed ]
