Want to play a casual golf game on mobile against real players, but one where the “real players” aren’t necessarily named Tiger Woods? You know what we’re talking about here – Playdemic’s Android and iOS title Golf Clash is not one of those hardcore sports games where you’ll be dealing with tons of ratings, numbers, and real-life PGA stars. It’s a more casual title where the focus is on getting social, facing human opponents in real-time, one-on-one golf battles. And it’ll be all about how well you time your shots and how well you upgrade your clubs – it’s mostly skill-based, not ratings-based, and that’s one more reason this should be your golf game of choice if you’re into the casual gaming thing.
So how can you properly time those shots? How do the upgrades work? You want to beat more opponents, of course, and you need to do those two things in order to achieve success in this game. But we’ve got what you need if you want to improve your mobile golf game – a list of Golf Clash cheats, tips and tricks. We’ve got a few things you need to keep in mind, so read on and follow these tips the next time you play!
1. Use The Right Amount Of Power
There really isn’t much to the regular shot stage of the game. But it can get tricky if you’re a beginner, and we can show you what you need to do. At this regular stage, you will be asked to pull the ball into the circle, and as you do this, you should look out for the target circle turning blue. That’s how the game will tell you that you’ve got the right mix of power and distance. But there may be instances where you’ll need to add a little more power to get a better shot off. The game will let you go a little further and keep pulling the ball back, and once you do this, don’t panic just yet, even as the target circle may try to throw you off and the power arrow moves even faster. Yes, there’s a risk that you will miss the shot badly, but if you increase the power and pull the ball back ever-so-slightly, you might end up making a better shot.
As a bonus tip, here’s how you can use the right amount of power when putting. You’ll want to ensure that the glowing path is parallel to the hole. The hole flag will go up and the hole will glow blue, similar to how the targeting circle does so above, once you’ve got the right amount of power in.
2. How To Upgrade Your Clubs
As we mentioned in the game’s overview, it’s mostly about your own skill, and not any special character ratings and statistics. That means that if there are two players with similar skills and just the right timing and power, the deciding factor will be the quality of clubs, which is something you can control through upgrades. So how does the upgrading mechanic work in Golf Clash?
For starters, you will be getting chests as you keep challenging more opponents and completing games. You’ll first need to unlock the chests before redeeming the freebies found inside, and this could take a while – you need to be patient here. Open chests at the moment you receive them, and make sure you do this if you don’t want to have a long list of chests “waiting in line” to be opened. You will mainly get coins and gems when you open the chests, but aside from that, you can also get new clubs. Getting the same club when you open another chest will allow you to get “parts” for the club, and when you’ve got enough parts for the club, you can improve its stats through upgrades. Clubs can be used immediately once you unlock them, but make sure they’re upgraded regularly.
3. How Do The Balls Work?
Aside from your clubs, balls can also influence your success on the game, though we should reiterate that this is a game of skill, not a game of stats. Golf balls don’t just come with statistical boosts, but also have special skills, such as Sidespin, which allows you to do just that – have balls that spin sideways once you shoot them, and Wind Resistance, which cuts down the wind resistance after shooting. But take note that balls are not permanent items; once you use them in a match, they’re gone for good. You can only buy them in the shop in the form of packs, and you’ll need to spend gems, the premium currency, to buy them.

4. The Spin Is Like Your Curveball
Well, not really, as curveballs aren’t as fast as fastballs, and are mainly meant to throw opposing batters off with their spin. But you get the idea – in Golf Clash, top spin and backspin are fancy techniques, trick shots of sorts, and you can use both to make balls spin in a certain direction faster, while slightly changing the path of the ball. Sideways spin is available in one of the above-mentioned special balls. It’s not mandatory to use any kind of spin when shooting the ball, but if you can master the art of the spin, it’s going to help you beat more opponents.
5. How To Get More Chests
We mentioned chests and gems above, the former containing the latter, among other goodies, and the latter being your premium currency which you will use to buy balls. How can you get more of each? The first method would be to aim for a high ranking in league play. Each time you move up in rank, you’ll have a better chance to get more cards inside the chests. You can also complete achievements, which are completed by playing the game naturally; some of them will give you gems as a reward. And lastly, connecting your game to Facebook will reward you with a free Platinum Chest as a freebie.
These would be our tips and tricks for Golf Clash. In case you know additional hints for the game, be sure to let us know!
Don’t understand why I spend coins and gems to buy club cards then I don’t get the club I need. I’ve spent real money to buy gems and coins. Tried purchasing an iron for 800 coins which never showed up. Purchased same iron again for 1600 coins. Still hasn’t showed up. You have no problem taking my coins and not giving me my iron. If this continues I will delete this game and bash it to everyone possible. If you do this to everyone, you or whom ever are sorry individuals.
you have to select the iron and put it in your bag. pick the golf bag icon on the bottom left of the screen and then select the clubs you want to use. You can only have one of each club in your bag at a time.
Relax..the chest Drops are random and Drop according to level they were won on. IF YOU HAVE A CLUB THAT YOU NEED TO IMPROVE, ITA BEST TO CHECK THE SHOPING CART ON BOTTOM MENU ECERY 4 HOURS, AS THEY ROTATE THRU VARIOUS CLUBS TO DIRECTLY IMPROVE SPECIFIC CLUBS
Or you can patiently wait and go thru chest that you win in Matches..take special note of the level the club was won from via your club selection sxreen, and stick to playing that level matches (which will more likely have the club improvement your seeking).
Good luck😊
I’ve been playing tour 7 trying to unlock the Apoc and have yet to get it. Have all tours up to 10 unlocked and still don’t have the Apoc level 1. Although I play against players with 500 trophies less than me and they’re playing with Apoc 4 or 5…
I know how you feel! I can’t get the Apoc either won a couple good clubs playing Golden shot but that’s kinda a rigged little deal there in my opinion! I enjoy the game but really get frustrated with it sometimes. I just want to be on a level playing field with other players.
I have a different complaint, I have won games and lost the trophies and when I send in a complaint they tell me they can’t give me my trophies as each tour has so many, but they have gave me the coins, they have cost me 60 plus trophies and they don’t care
I had the same problem, once you reach your total trophies in that Tour, you cannot win any more Trophies in that Tour only coins !! But if you lose in that Tour, your Trophies will be taken away from you… But, then again, if you win in that particular Tour, they will add the Trophies back until you reach the max Trophies in that Tour !!
I told them it was crap, but they explained it to me as spilled milk, you cant add more milk to the jug ! Made sense to me anyways 🙂
suck it up princesses!
Jokes on you dummy, you cant buy clubs (especially your little iron) with coins. you can only use gems. So before you go to bash this amazing game, put a “sand wedge” down your throat.
Good one lol what an idiot right lmao!
Just chiming in. I am not a great player, however with over 8,000 games numerous tournaments reaching finals, doing ok in golden shots I finally unlocked last week the Apc and Cat. But I still have non epic club from level 4 that’s not opened. I wrote GC and explains I’m out gunned by players with level 3-4 Application c and Cat with same or near same winning percentage but with 1/4-1/3 games played I’ve played. Believe me I open my chests. In the end they never gave a plausible explanation. I’m not a complainer but would like reasonable answer.
We here at *Golf Clash apologize for any inconvienance we have caused you. For a minimum fee of only 5 dollars we will expedite your purchase. Thank you for playing!
How much would it cost me to unlock the Apoc and get it to level 3 or 4? Played up to tour 11 and still don’t have it…😣
I purchased a king level chest for 4,100 gems and just got apocalypse. I have a trophy rating of 1900. Level seven is locked up and I can’t win anymore trophies but it gives me chest and coins every time I win. Pissed me off. I also acquired the “endbringer” using the same method of buying the king chest with 4,100 gems. I had to purchase the gems with my credit card of course. They aren’t going to let everyone acquire their best game functions until you spend real hard earned cash. After all, they didn’t create the game for our pleasure, it’s about money. Show them the cash, they will give you the best options available on the platform.
I like the game Phill, I don’t think some of the rude comments above are in the spirit of a game or in sport.
Most the guys you play in these matches are rude little smack talkers because they know we’ll never know where to find them or they’ll never actually see you in real life. And I especially like the one who have a high rating that believe their better than everyone because they are avid players of a video game with the trophy count to back it up. What a joke! I turn the chat feature off because I’ve ran into some real smart ass people playing this game. It’s no different in here. Easy for them to run their mouth when they can hide behind a computer screen. Truth is, if your a man and you have a real high trophy count in Golf Clash then you need to get a life because you spend entirely to much time playing games.
People, it’s a game. Why would you spend your real money when you can’t win any real money? Go play the lottery.
Duh. Because people have always paid for video games. Do you own any Nintendo; Xbox, etc?
OK EVERYONE: This game is a lot more a game of strategy, math, discipline, and then comes the skill and ability to get certain clubs and upgrades…First of all, you can google the chart which indicates the % chance of you getting a card/club based on which tour your play but also based on how many trophies you have. The CATACLYSM is one of the hardest ones, and the chances to get this club are very very low, BUT IT INCREASES QUITE A BIT ONCE YOU REACH 2700+ trophies…when you play tour7 or higher, with that many trophies, you will face some of the best players, but your chances to get Cat club or cards for upgrades go from something like 0.001, which is 1 in 1000 EPIC cards…but EPIC cards at tour 7 with you having 2700+ trophies then have a 1 in 50 epic cards to get the club or upgrade…ALSO as someone mentioned, GOLDEN SHOTS are absolutely the best chance for a player with less than 2500 trophies to get epic clubs such as Endbringer, CAT, APO….And to then upgrade them. You can follow youtube videos by TOMMY who makes it pretty easy to get all the chests on the HARD level of Golden ball for 5$…I would never buy the 4100 gem chests..You might get the club after 2-3 tries, and if very lucky the first time. But to get enough to upgrade it, you will spend a fortune….THEN THE STRATEGY…how to compete vs fair OPPONENTS? DO NOT, NOT NOT, increase your trophy amount unless you have the right clubs and skill achieved over time….So be patient, play the tours you already filled with trophies and then you will loose trophies, fill it up again and again the same back and forth, but you won’t go over a certain amount and then your opponents could be way better with way better clubs just because you rushed to open a tour, and your clubs and even skill is not there yet. UNFORTUNATELY , THIS GAME DOES NOT REWARD PLAYING TOO MUCH, but the opposite. Too much play time without thinking and your trophy count will make you reach a tour where you will be destroyed if you do it too fast. AND IF YOU PLAY TOO MUCH AND ARE ABLE TO WIN ON THOSE HIGHER TOURS, you will be promoted to MASTER way too fast, and then in TOURNAMENTS you will be matched with all MASTERS but more than half will have 2500-3500 trophies and amazing clubs. It is very possible to become a Master in 6 weeks, like I did, but I then struggled a lot in day to day play and tournaments…I ended up catching on and have 100mil coins from tour 10 alone, but tournaments are still tough since I have been playing for only 4 months and reached Master 3 after about 2 months. I came back down to Master 1 and with my play activity that is where I stay..I then opened a fun account and my beginner account I played it perfect. Didn’t play too much, didn’t force trophies, played golden shots, and first 4 tournaments placed from 5th to 33rd…placed in all 4 and on my Master act with great clubs, I play pro level in tournaments and Placed 1 time top 20 lol…TO GO EVEN FURTHER…You can find out which tours give which clubs…play tour 2 over and over until your Extra Mile is level 6-7 and if you are still beginner, you will have all you need in beginner tournament….other tips you can youtube…GL and do research, play smart, use your time instead of gems to open chests, play with lower balls and dont compensate with balls for skill vs better opponents and you will gradually and successfully have a lot of fun, spend a minimum amount, and win free stuff in tournament play..
How do leagues work I keep winning matches but I don’t move up and I see people with lower trophies then me move up higher then me , what’s that about ?
Leagues are about how many coins you win in matches… trophies don’t matter. So, the more games you win, the more coins you will earn and the higher your rank in your league! 🙂
What’s with not getting the right club to use during a shoot out. It is always the back bone club when in a shoot out on the beginner course. But some times it won’t give you the backbone club it gives you a wood. Is this a glitch.
the backbone is your long iron. Sometimes it won’t give you the long iron and gives you the wood because the wood hits further and you are aiming further than the long iron can reach. If you move your aim point shorter, it will eventually be too short for the wood and go red. Drag further an it will switch the long iron. Same goes the other way. If you are using wood and it doesn’t quite reach it will go red. If you drag gently it will give you an idea of how far it will go if you do a power shot. If you drag the aim point further it will change your club from your wood to your driver (if you are teeing off)
I have the same problem no matter how far back I pull it there is no colour change and no change of club, there is only one play off hole where we have the same club.
It’s not rocket science lol
How do I buy a club that is in tour 2 but youve passed that already
I want to buy the extra mile driver any hints
You can keep playing tour 2 until you unlock it or when you goto the store there will be 3 clubs available for purchase a common, rare, and epic club. It may become available for purchase there but generally once you advance to higher tours, the store only offers you clubs that are relevant to the tour level you are on. Best advice is to keep playing and winning your 2 games and eventually you will unlock the club.
The higher you move up in tours simply unlocks your ability to earn those higher your clubs… you do not stop getting lower level clubs. You just have to be patient.
How do you add some one that your playing with Online
I’ve waited 3 weeks to get the tour driver 2, the xrtra mile and still can’t get one. If gottton all the other clubs 3 times but no driver. Everyone seems to have it but me?
You not alone dude…. Its driving me (pardon the pun) f_king crazy. Apparently its in tour two. Im now opening all my boxes so that i can free up all 4 of my spaces, then going to win all the boxes in tour 2… Holding thumbs that i get it.
this works. just leveled mine to 6
Are your other clubs all upgraded maybe it won’t work unless they are
How do I get the extra mile ?
How can I make targets move to spot ball?
How to get top spin and back spin ball
Yes, I am having the same problem.
Side spin is determined by the ball you chose. They can be purchased and “won” as part of the chests. Top & back spin are a function of the club (and the upgrade level, which requires time, cards and coins). If you want top and back spin upgrade the club or choose a different one that has the specifications that you want.
I keep winning but my score stays the same
You can only score 20 in the beginner league, you need to play the west coast and win to get more trophies
How do you see and adjust the ball path from the take shot screen? I’ve seen people I’m playing do it but can’t seem to work out how they’ve done it.
Ditto to the above question, also, how do you change woods in the middle of a game? The dude I just played today did that
It’s a distance thing u start out with one club but if you move it back a certain distance apace aloud it will swap your club automatically for you pretty sure u can’t just swap clubs at random
how do you rotate the camera on laptop im only used to playing on my iphone ?
Hold down the right mouse button and drag left or right to rotate the screen
In later tours, you don’t want the extra mile. It starts to turn into target golf where accuracy, curl, and balls are a premium.
HOW TO YOU AIM LIKE I HAVE SEEN OTHERS FROM MY LAPTOP IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY i can’t zero in on a target i play against others and they fine tune there aim i can’t grrr
Use the phone app instead of your laptop
This is a real con then, I have the same problem on my tablet, I watch all the others moving the target around but then do not have the same op
oportunity.
Why don’t I get the coins from league play when the league is over? I was supposed to get like 18900 coins according to the standing sheet!
That is not the amount of coins you will receive, but the amount of coins you have earned this week in your league. The higher amount of coins you have won over the week, the higher in standings you will be in your league. I hope this helps, happy golfing!
I am just curious why i lose the match while my shot is less than opponent ? I felt cheated
Lots of glitches in the game still
I played tour 7. My winning streak 7 but on league I get only 25k instead of 100k, how they calculated league score I don’t understand.
I have just played a game against a guy. He hit a shot on a par 5 and came to rest behind some trees. I hit a good shot out on the fairway. His 2nd shot timed out cos he took too long. Mine came to rest just short of the green in the bunker. His 3rd shot he aimed into the trees, full backspin, and hit it. His ball disappeared into the trees and appeared landing on the green about 4 yards from the pin!! There is no chance even with a perfect shot and line of sight that he could have even gotten close to the green! How is this possible?? I cannot find a hack online that enables this. I’m pissed off! We both made birdies and he won in the closest the pin playoff! I’m about to uninstall this game if cheats can play like this then whats the point??!!! 🙁
hit d ball into d hole, simple is dat
I’m pissed off with this game I don’t understand this draw thing if you pot the ball first you should win I have won many games like this every time I go to the playoff I end up out of bounds in all normal games I play I never end up out of bounds, I have not won any playoff games so anoying
That’s not how golf works. If it was, the person who goes first should, theoretically, win 100% of the time, so long as both players are at the same skill level. Golf is about lowest score at the end of the game, but everyone always plays every hole. This is just a shortened version of that.
That’s bullshit anyone goes first is at disadvantage period! No argument! It gives your opponent an opportunity to analyze the scene where he can place, what’s the wind speed etc. yes even if he has zero interest in your shot!
And if you draw and you still go first he has the upper hand again.
Thats pretty sexist
you should be able to play a 9 hole game with your buddies
I just want a way to play a practice round from time to time. No chests, no advancement, no coins or gems, just playing the damn game. Everything is competition.
Ya I have lost over 200k coins do to cheaters and disconnects. It’s driving me crazy.
Between glitches and then logging off and online all the time I was up to 180,000 in coins back to basically zero coins because of there shit they can’t seem to fix real frustrating
Really messed up how someone can log out in the middle of my shot,and it cancels it. Itll say the are reconnecting while my ball is in flight,then i neve see my ball hit the ground. All of the sudden im back at the tee,and they are already on the fair,and i never saw them take their shot!! WTH kind of glitch/cheat is that
Just started this game and I have very few friends that play Is there a way to play just to play or does it have to be a live person. If it has to be a live person. Then where do u find live people outside of your friends list
Heres one for ya. Game freezes up on Ipad, wont start for like 5-6 min. I delete app and reinstall from Apple cloud. When it loads back up Im at beginner status, all my clubs and balls are gone, some of which I purchased. I lost like 20$ of gems coins and equiptment. Wont spend another cent if not rectified
How is it that some players are able to hide their shot adjustments in the shoot out and most of us cannot. this is very unfair.
Also, why am I the first player to hit 90% of the time in the shoot off. Big disadvantage for person shooting first.
How do you change your view so you can aim better? I see people changing the view so you can look at it from a different direction. If I scroll out with my mouse I just get an overview of the hole.
I just figured out changing the views. Different devices give you different views. My cell phone gives me different views than my desktop gives.
Why Does the game make bad shots for you I am talking about as soon as I touch the ball it will shoot itself and in shootouts as well as soon as you touch the ball you can tell you have no control. I don’t mind losing but I like to be the one doing the wrong. I just lost 10,000 coins because of it. I have spent money on this game and I don’t get the clubs I need but I know they are rare or epic and the chances are lower. I would just like to play the game myself? Do you have an answer?
Is there a science behind wind velocity between normal and tournament play? Tournament play seems to have increased effect.
Any measure of thumb on how to judge the effect of the wind?
Nothing scientific. There are a couple of ways to deal with the wind, unfortunately they both involve experience and feel. The first is to adjust your aim point into the wind, the stronger the wind the more you have to allow that the wind will push your ball. The other way is to counteract the wind with side spin into the wind, but that take even more experience and feel.
When or how do u get a new putter
Unfortunately, you never get a new putter. It is amazing to me that there are actually places on greens that the given putter will NEVER reach. This factor is nit only unreal but extremely unfaur.
How do you get the over view of your ball guide
I have asked the same question yet I have not gotten any reply or answers. I as many have spent money playing this game but it cheats me out of my shot on a regular basis. Why can’t I take my shot myself? Why is it that I never get my answer or even see my comment in these questions???????? I see I am not the only one with complaints so tell me is this some sort of way to take money from players and not give results or answers? I imagine y’all don’t care if the game is successful as long as you get your money and run I also notice that you ask for an e-mail address yet won’t even answer my question in an e-mail. It seems to me when I buy gems the games gets worse. Is this because I am sending in a complaint?
Once again I have been cheated out of my turn on a 10000 coin hole. Once again I haven’t gotten an answer from you. My plan is to spread this game around as a cheating game that isn’t worth the time to down load it. All it will do is take your money and not let you play the game . What you get is a waiting game that first takes forever to upload your turn just to have your shot cheated out of you. This is a Facebook game and a scam. They ask your E-Mail address only not to respond to your issues which leads me to believe they may even hack your account.
This is what I plan to spread on Facebook and every other social way to communicate. I assure you I have friends that play it as well and they have had enough of your crappy issues. It is a good game it is too bad the techs don’t know what the hell is going on.
In taking the shot, how do I manually adjust the target?
Wish I knew, I use a tablet to play, evidently you have more control if you are using a phone.
with computer click and hold left mouse button and move target with mouse then release button when in correct spot
In response to most of these comments, I’ve had opponents shoot a ball directly through a tree trunk, shoot balls through a groove of pine trees, and have balls run through a bunker and onto the green even though they put backspin on it.
While I understand some of your frustrations we need to remember this is a game played for entertainment. If you’re not having fun, uninstall it and play chess!
Happy golfing all!
What determines who goes first in sudden death?
This should have been a whoever goes first will be second but the programmers disagree I find this most unfair in the whole game
how do you use the aiming circle? I see some players that zoom in and out, but I don’t know how to use it with my cell phone. Please help.
I love the game . I was having a good day and won 20 inn a row. I didn’t realize it until I was getting my gems from achievements. Yea I patted myself on the back but know it was a rare achievement.One last thing I have learned to quit playing when I get sleeply that’s when my throphy count plummets.
Why when i pull back to take a shot is my ball being shot for me
what is the three steak special and how does it work
I know huh I’d like to play sone other holes I can’t hardly get past tour 5 w out ruin out of monies then I’ll get a guy w 450 pins under his name I got like 187 and I go first and I’ve never even seen the hole before..coarse he wins cleans ne out till I struggle back up 2 or three wins pe r tour. Srysoslpy small type
I u Sally get the mile under first 50 hole on a new I’d. Heck now type is even smaller
its a game ffs…….relax, everyone plays by the same rules.
I can’t find the overhead view, where is it? Not the areil view.
This game is rigged to make the player keep buying gems. I’m noticing most of my shots have a higher wind factor than my opponent. It matters. Also, noticing that the timer never runs out on an opponents shot…. it freezes and waits for them to complete the shot. It will definitely run out on my shot though. Does anyone ever notice…. you never get asked to play a game, but when you want to play, an opponent is instantly found for you. I don’t mind paying to play now and then, but…. make it a fair game first. When you get on a losing streak…. it will wipe you out so that you must make gem purchases to play anymore. Obviously rigged against you.
if you are not spending money you are not winning. Been playing for some time and spent some money here and there. I have noticed that even though I am not a good player if you do not spend a little money every week you lose a lot of games.
When I spend I seem to win a few here and there, but don’t spend money for 2 weeks and you do not win very often then… I did one week and lost game after game, so what is happening???? I have not change clubs or balls..
Well it’s truly amazing how they have so much control over again the game I’ve never seen the wind changed so drastically from seconds after one person shoots and I never seen the wind change so drastically depending on the golf ball you use your greatest opponent and you hardly have a chance to win against it’s the game itself and then it is the person you’re playing against an honest game would be to tell the people how much you have control the game instead of deceiving people in thinking they’re playing and honest game
Why don’t they have a section like a practice area,so we can practice TIMING, big HOOKS and slices, sand traps. With different clubs and balls and putting greens. If you do or can, remember me for the idea and $$$$$ !!! I would do those things, but don’t know techy stuff. I’m 65 ………..old, !!
Thanks, John (NUT)
….
Do not spend money on this game. They put cheats in the game play. It’s very frustrating to say the least. Skill, clubs, and balls will only get you so far. Once you get into the “You can’t make a shot phase of the game, stop playing”… they just want you to spend more money.
I have 40 draw and can’t win one of them, when I take a shot it
is ether way to short or way to long, and I take the say shot as my appointment..
On many occasions after I take my first shot after the shot it goes time off so I have to redo it and end up losing why
