It looks like a Chrome/Flash/WGT compatability issue. One observation I read on another thread was to use Comodo Dragon ... a Chrome based browser... that does not auto-update
I just downloaded it along with Flash 11.2 (NOT 11.3) ... and played a round.
No meter issue. No delay on the swing. Hit the ding as often as I usually do. And no problems with club selections changing.
Thanks to all for the thoughts and ideas... here and on the other threads as well
