Like ''Japan Course'', the game comes on a blue disk, meaning it is compatible with the Disk Fax, a device found in public places across Japan such as department stores. These machines would send the player's saved games and high score information to [[Nintendo]]. Nintendo held a contest centered around this game. The top 100 players received a trophy, and they along with 9,900 others received a gold [[Family Computer|Famicom]] cartridge of ''[[nwiki:Punch-Out!! (NES)|Punch-Out!!]]'' There was also an unannounced prize, which was a special version of the game that came on a gold disk known as '''''Golf: Special Course''''' (labeled '''''Golf: Prize Card''''' on the title screen)<ref>{{cite|url=pony.velvet.jp/fcdisk/fmcmdskw4.html|title=◆ゴルフUSコースの景品の一つのはずなのにその後も登場。『ゴルフスペシャルコース』|publisher=Family Computer Disk System Art Database|accessdate=March 31, 2021}}</ref> and was given out to 1,000 randomly chosen players who had scored a hole-in-one.
