Utilize control and fineness instead of power, positioning is the key to the entire mini golf gm. measure your angle and bounce off the rt. wall. If you are short with your angle the first time, increase the angle the next, 17 is the hardest hole on the course, do not give up, I hated that hole until I found the rt. angle.

put your cursor on the outside upper corner and bank it in takes some practice trial and error

If you picture a clock, then aim yout cursor at just between 12 and 13 minutes past 3 o'clock, that way it goes in every time, or at least, lie right at the pocket, making it a 2 pocket hole.
I certainly works for me, and this particular hole used to be my nightmare!!!

  Today you get a two shot tip for HOLE 17!!!

but first you need to know this... THE LEGENDS GANG became mini-golf gods by putting in tons of time either mastering the 'ace' shots you hear about or even just researching out the best/easiest shots from the endless choices is a huge time investment .

Then add to that your practice of these shots,  (adjust a pixel to the left or right, up or down) to get the hole made, you begin to understand why they don't share their secrets so easily.

ANYWAY, Like LEGEND J. GUZMAN, I also believe it is a good thing giving info to avid addicts of MG as REWARD for sincerely trying to master these shots and for asking (REPEATEDLY) for help. lol

SO while I WON'T give up the ace shot for hole 17... I WILL GIVE YOU GUYS A GUARANTEED, TWO SHOT GIFT THAT DOES NOT NEED TUNNELS OR SUPERSHOT CAPABILITY!!!


But you each have to give an equally valuable morsel tip of any game YOU ARE GREAT AT to a true lover and learner of such game.... k? K!


SHOT ONE   (You will have to use your 'arrow up' key JUST A BIT...)


NOTE where my POINTER IS placed?!
  Your pointer tip goes into the corner where the two grey shades meet. The power bar should also show full power for you, SHOOT.

YOU LOVE ME NOW HUH? LOL Time for shot two...


SHOT TWO

NOTE where my POINTER IS placed?!
  Your pointer tip JUST touches the outside corner, MEET IT with your tip. Again check that you have full power and SHOOT.

This is a BIRDIE SHOT (one stroke under par!) 99.9% of the time for you now. No more 13 strokes on hole 17!!!


WHO'S YOUR DADDY NOW??


THIS SHOT COURTESY OF MG LEGEND RAVINATOR, thanx rav!! AND ME, for treading the tips and FINALLY finding a great one to share with my fellow cyber-golflegends of the future!! ROFLMAO! HAVE FUN YOU GUYS!
