There are probably an infinite number of ways to make screenshots, depending on each individual's preferences. However, I know of two primary ways that are very effective for making great screenshots for the Tiger Woods Golf Series.
First of all, the preferred setup for making screenshots is in practice mode. With the second method listed here, it is usually best using one golfer, either one you are familiar hitting with, or one with a slow swing speed for hitting precision.
(1) Click and hold the arrow/camera that appears in the overhead map with the left mouse button. Drag the arrow/camera around the map until the desired shot is achieved. Once the desired shot is achieved, press the PRINT SCREEN button (normally located near the top of the keyboard), open up your favorite graphics program (PAINT works fine if you don't have another graphics program to use), and PASTE the screenshot into the program (if using PAINT, click EDIT near the top of the window, then click PASTE). This method works best when taking a picture focusing on the green, and can produce great green shots because of the height of the camera and angle the camera aims at the green.
(2) This method is much more complicated, but is my preferred choice of making screenshots. This method requires a little bit of quick reflexes and good shot-making. (But if you've been playing Tiger Woods for awhile, it should be no problem executing the shots you need to get good screenshots). What is required here is hitting a shot the desired direction and height, and taking a screenshot while the ball is moving toward its intended target. First, hit the ball until it ends up in the desired location you would like to hit from. Then, aim your shot in the direction you would like to take your screenshot with. Next, choose a club that will send the ball the desired height at the location you would like to take your screenshot with. Finally, hit the ball with the desired power, spin, etc. Once you see the shot you want to take, press the PRINT SCREEN button (normally located near the top of the keyboard), open up your favorite graphics program (PAINT works fine if you don't have another graphics program to use), and PASTE the screenshot into the program (if using PAINT, click EDIT near the top of the window, then click PASTE). This method works best when the you either want a picture away from the green, or if the first method just won't give you the picture you want.
The first method is much quicker if you can get the picture you want; the second method has a lot more potential to give you the picture you want.
