Reception
In Japan, Famitsu gave the game a score of 23 out of 40.[1] In North America, GamePro recommended the game "for thinking golfers who love to experiment", praising the wide range of options and the detailed course graphics, though they criticized the difficult shooting controls and the unclear overhead maps.[2] A reviewer for Next Generation, while assessing it as a decent golf simulation with good features, concluded that Golf Magazine Presents 36 Great Holes Starring Fred Couples "is just another golf sim without the depth of EA's PGA series, and, to top it off, the graphics just aren't that impressive for a 32-bit game. The only thing here that hasn't been seen before is the massive 15 syllable title." He gave it three out of five stars.[3]
