Introduction
Shot Maker (real name Robert Landolt) represents Germany in Neo Turf Masters. Easily the most popular character in the game, Shot Maker is a very strong character well suited for all skills of players. His high power, great putting and good club selection make him a seemingly obvious choice for most players, however his poor recovery and smaller arsenal of slices/hooks can make getting out of tricky situations difficult.
Strengths:
- High power
- Very simple gameplan
- Slow meters
- Very easy 7f max shot window, higher frame window than any other character
Weaknesses:
- Lacks slices/hooks
- Poor recovery makes it hard to cover for mistakes
- Very little available room between 100% and Max
- 7f max shot window makes it easy for players to overshoot accidentally

Approaching
Due to Landolt having little space between 100% and max shot, he has a lot of dead zones when figuring out approaches. 110% shots are your friends, as Landolt's 7f window for hitting 110% shots make it easier to be precise. Approaches should usually be hit with a low trajectory, as Landolt's high innate shot makes the wind more of a factor in your shots. Learning how to be precise with spinning the ball, both top and back spin, will bring out the best in this character.
Putting
Slow and precise putting bars makes putting a breeze. In general, putts should be hit 1 bar above or below depending on hills, and add or subtract another bar for the grain if it's directly into you.
