    DO NOT PRESS YOUR MOUSE HARDER - it does not add the extra yards you want

    Of course it does!  So does tilting your head with the ball when you try and hook the trees on Beth #2!

    But it makes me feel like I am trying harder.

    Try this (replay):

    Cabo #3 from front tees, 253 yds (indication was more(?) or I read 283 in error?)

    Take G20 (284 yds) driver, a wee headwind, a tad bs, 90% meter => 295 carry,

    OOB @320 yds

    Pffft goes a nice ball and a nice round :(

    Not surprising when noting the pin is 31 feet below the tee!  A 240yd 3W was a safer and wiser selection IMO.

    Alas, even with a "90%" driver, if you had not pulled the shot so far left the cart path would have been avoided and grass found.

    I have to say, I have improved quite a lot, I am now at the level I am only inches away from killing every hole.

    I miss the ding by two inches every shot, if I can fix that then I would be really dangerous!

    So are you saying that, when I slide the mouse right or left, it does not help me fade or draw the ball either? ;-)

    Zio, it will only help you if you also lean left or right, at least 45 degrees in the corresponding direction you are trying to work the ball.
