I went looking up Prize Golf again through Discmaster.
https://web.archive.org/web/19991023104510/http://www.prizegolf.com/ – Here is their website archived via Wayback Machine; they state that the service is copyright 1999 by Net Tour New Zealand (so I was a bit off the mark referring to it as Australian). Seems they funded the prize pool by charging $4.95 USD as an entry fee, so really it’s more like gambling than it is an online play service.
https://discmaster.textfiles.com/browse/29222/Hracuv-raj-Sportovni-Hry.bin/Prize%20Golf/Prize_Golf_Installation.exe – This is NOT a direct link to download the exe file (though you can do that); here is the Discmaster link where you can view its contents in the Web page, including the HTML manual and its associated pictures. For what it’s worth, the game can be played offline without using the service at all, but at that rate, you’d probably be better off playing David Leadbetter’s.
Hello! This place was brought to my attention last night. It looks like Pix’s journey rather mirrors one I undertook a year ago (through similar means). I come bearing an Interesting Fact: Wilson ProStaff Golf lived a double-life, not just under a sports-equipment-license, but also as the official golf game of Sierra’s ImagiNation Network! Yes, INN had a 3D golf game included – under the title of “INN 3D Golf” – that is a mildly altered version of Wilson ProStaff. If you’re especially patient with the software, this is something that you can (in theory) still play today, through the “INN Barn” service-recreation. Though I have never managed to get into a game successfully. 😀
