Golf Using arduino

I want to create a golf game,
5 buttons -
rotate left, rotate right,
high power ,low power and shoot
what will happen is rotate buttons will rotate the golf club left & right - this one I figured using servo
but controlling the power wont be fun with servo - I want it to go back for lets say up to 90 degrees (once I release the button the club will stay at it position till I push shot button, tried doing it with servo but it doesnt feel real(I made the servo go to 0 once shoot was pushed but it doesn't feel right ,
how can I do that ? maybe with a DC motor ? how can I hold it in place till I "shoot"

Hi,
It looks like a mechanical problem.
May be you need to have the club on a spring loaded arm, the amount you swing back will be the power of the stroke.

You could use the servo to bring the club back to what ever position, then have some trigger that releases the arm and the spring swings the club down and through the tee.

Just a suggestion.
