  TallAcePaul:

  Are you joking.

  Sadly no. Like I said, I learned the hard way ;-). It makes some sense though. Your shot (flightpath, landing spot, roll, etc.) gets calculated at the moment you click the meter and if the stick is there at that time, it's entered in the equasion. Doesn't matter what you do with it after you click, the cards are already on the table by then.

  A quick question, did you pull the flag before you took your shot or once the ball was already in flight. Cause the latter part doesn't work, learned that the hard way. It does say the flag was removed, but it really wasn't ;-)

   

  I agree to that. I have experienced it before.

  Kritzan that makes perfect sense, it would be nice for WGT to confirm this though.

  Sorry to say, they scarcely confirm any public observation. Alas, I support Kritzan's statement: The balls finds it's (calculated) final spot before the downswing begins - cf. the wee delay announcing the last shot before you obtain the CDP bonus.

  While the shot is visually executed, we simply have no more influence on it's outcome, just like in RL, regardless of any "SIT!" calls ;)
