Well I must say, I'm quite hooked on Go! Go! Birdie Chance and have been playing it every night. This is the most fun I've had with a golf game ever. A lot of the fun is due to the game's personality though which won't appeal to everyone. I won't do a review until I've finished the first story path at least (there are 3 paths).
EDIT: Since YouTube is crap and won't let me upload anything bigger then 100mbs or longer then 10mins, I've put it on GoogleVideo instead.
Note this is in story mode. In story mode you are the Coach, and not the player herself. So you train her, pick her shot, club, spin, and how much power to use. The actual shot though is based completely on a combination of her stats, confidence, and happiness. However in Normal mode, its just regular golf and you have full control of the shot.
Enjoy
