Power Shots extend a character's carry (the distance the ball travels from the time it is hit until it first touches the ground), and are limited to six shots in an 18-hole golf game, or the total number of holes divided by three if the golf game consists of fewer than 18 holes. If players perform a Power Shot with perfect timing, it does not count towards the total number of shots, essentially giving players an extra Power Shot.

This article is about the shot mechanic in the Mario Golf series. For the special moves in the Mario Tennis series, see Power Shot (Mario Tennis series).

Power Shots are a special type of shot that appears in the Mario Golf series and in the Golf game mode in Mario Sports Superstars. Power Shots extend a character's carry (the distance the ball travels from the time it is hit until it first touches the ground), and are limited to six shots in an 18-hole golf game, or the total number of holes divided by three if the golf game consists of fewer than 18 holes. If players perform a Power Shot with perfect timing, it does not count towards the total number of shots, essentially giving players an extra Power Shot. In the Ring Shot game modes in Mario Golf and Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, and the Ring Master challenges in Mario Golf: World Tour, one Power Shot per hole is provided.

Power Shots are not present in Mario Golf: Super Rush, where they are replaced by the Special Shot mechanic.
