lots of things can make the swing meter skip or hesitate..most cause's are cookies and temp files not deleted after surfing the net for a long while,or even loop being on during the game, once cookies and temp files are deleted,,try this tip if meteor still act's up,on your shot.. click and hold mouse..grab bar and move it back and forth once or twice then take your regular shot,do this tip two or three times during the round and same for the next one or two round's..you will not have to do it on every shot,,just some..after a bit meter will come into line and it should work great..I had problems for a long time with my meter when I first started playing this great game..found this tip on my own and did it for a few rounds..I have not had any problems with it for over a year now..it does work if you are patient enough to let it work..have fun all and hope this helps... give me feedback if you would like..thank you and have great game's..I see there was a place to put this thread called game tips,,sorry I dint see it,,silly me ,,,lol
