Title: Portable Golden Tee (Wanting some help with my parts list)
Post by: ijkomo on January 07, 2007, 01:13:54 pm

I'm wanting to make a portable Golden Tee that plugs in to the TV, and so I need some help with the parts list.. Any suggestion will be totally appreciated!

Parts thus far:

Control Panel with Happ Trackball and Pushbuttons

2003 GT hard drive, and motherboard

Power supply from an old PC

You should be able to mod this to fit your needs.  or use the parts from this to make a better setup.

Depends on what you are looking for.  This plug and play box runs a cheap imitation of the real Golden Tee series.  I have it - it is nice and easy to travel with and is still alot of fun... But it is no where near the arcade style Golden Tee.

Gatorcade.com has a portable GT...

I think the website also has the individual parts if you want to DIY.

If you are still building your own you need a JROK convertor to view the game via s-vid on your TV.
