RE: Meter Stutter
This happens because your computer is busy (as in processing the video data that you just received from WGT or because you have other processes running simultaneously with WGT) and you are trying to take a shot.
Normally there is no 'stutter' when you start a new game with a "clean cache" but will begin as the game progresses.
There is a thread on the forum that talks about how to display a "CPU load meter" on your screen, while playing. If you hold your swing until the "load meter" shows either no or very little load, your stutter problem will go away.
Alternatively, if you simply hold your club at the top of your swing for 2-4 seconds before releasing it to take a shot - the stutter will also disappear.
Good luck!
