    Hit a sand wedge out of 2 - 5 bunker. Only went half the charted distance. Could this have been an error and should have read 25%?

    The game often rolls to a different club at the last second before you "swing". Sometimes because the player accidentally hit the scroll wheel: sometimes simply for reasons unknown.

    Not knowing your pre-shot routine, is it possible the club rolled from sand wedge to lob wedge at the last second, resulting in your lost distance?

    Where is a 2 - 5 bunker in the game?

    In general, bunker shots with the Starter wedges are very difficult with a tendency to desaster. Think about the investment of 400 crs for two short Ping wedges, or some more for ATVs if you so decide.

    Replacing the expensive baseball balls by their budget bros may pay for this soon. Even better: Use Tour-SDs.

    It's for the "trick-shotter" crowd that do nothing but Blitz.

    Thanks for the response.The 2-5 bunker was at Wk 51 Edgewood Ctth. I figured it was almost the same as playing a normal lie but I was wrong. I have inadvertently spun the mouse wheel before and got a way different club than I should but this time it was the 50 wedge for sure.

    The baseball balls were a freebie from WGT a while back, when they run out I'll be back to starters until I get to the stage where I'm comfortable paying out for balls knowing I won't put them in the water after only a few hits on them.

    It's on Tahoe and it should be 40/50%
