  Change to the Maxthon 3 browser and clear all the junk from your PC. It works wonders.

  I had one earlier today on Kiawah Island course. Never seen it happen before like this. It was in mid air and the whole screen looked like it was in slow motion while the ball was skipping across like a slide show. It blew my mind when I seen it and almost thought It would mess up my shot but it landed where I wanted it to. My last round I did notice the meter shooting way pass my ding area I could barely catch it. Lost some decent balls too before switching to the practice balls.

  Happy Golfing!

  Yeah, lately I've been having a VERY jumpy meter. I thought it might have been lag, so I turned all the settings to the lowest quality, but it didn't help much. I've tried multiple browsers, but that didn't help either and I know it's not my computer (custom build gaming computer). I'll chalk it up to slight server issues.

  Was having the best round of my life earlier, 2 birdies and then a 36 foot putt for Eagle... Then on my next drive my meter somehow sped past the ding, and I shot my first ball ever out of bounds. /ragequit Lmao.

  Guys:

  How can anybody tell or even help without knowing your equipment - ehm - software?

  It may be the server, but let's include or exclude your local stuff:

  Which browser, which Flash version do you have?

  Did you notice any update of these lately?

  If Chrome, are you sure that only one Flash version is active?

  In my case, I usually only use Google Chrome, but I've tried Mozilla and the issue was still present. As for flash, I run weekly updates, so whatever the latest version is, is what I have. Sadly, if the issue is me running the most current version of flash, I'm going to have to live with it as this isn't the only game I play.

  Firefox (Mozilla?) shows game freezes with the Flash new versions. I can only play with version 10.3. Not your WGT browser obviously if you need the current version.

  In Chrome, up to three Flash versions may collide. Type "about:plugins" in the command line to disable all but one version. It's best to deactivate the "pepper" version and the external one (used by Firefox and others). Chrome maintains a unique plugin version internally - this is the choice.

  You may then disable Flash updates but any Chrome update will obviously revive the problem.
