  Hi

  The dots on green on St. Andrews seems strange, mainly on certain holes with some 

  brake. They go fast slow fast slow fast slow etc.

  I simply have no chance to read it correctly.

  Am I the only one with the problems on Andrews?

  I have the same issue.  Impossible to tell whether to putt on the basis of the faster dots or of the slower dots.

  Hi Siggi

  I simply don't know. But it is so frustrating, when you play well and then the dots are behaving like they were on coke!!

  Some people talked about flash, maybe it could be it. But I think it is strange that no more people make a comment....

  So maybe it is just an exlusive group, who have the issue.

  I have the problem too. Pitch/chip view is ok, putt view is ok when the aim arc is displayed, but when it is not the case, as you say it's fast, slow, fast, slow...

  It's as if the green dots ask too many ressources for the CPU...

  I am having this issue on so far all courses I've played recently.RSG,Kiawah,Oly,Andies,BO 4's,Bpb

  Doing nothing just visually reading the putt and sometimes the dots go slow,then speed up,then slow down again.(Actually had my wife verify this who knows nothing of the game to make sure I wasn't over "medicated" and seeing things)

  Other times the speed is consistent until I click to aim.Then the dots speed up and when I release the click for aiming they slow down again.I've also had this in reverse where when I click to aim, the dots slow down and when released the dots speed up again.

  My cpu meter when on the greens now jumps anywhere from 10 - 20% where before it was pretty consistent around 2-5%

  I'm running latest flash version and using Waterfox browser as stand alone for wgt.This same set up was fine back on April 2.

  I'll come out of retirement, LOL, long enough to agree on the St Anns dots. It's compounded when on champ greens. Several other courses are similarly affected, Oly being terrible.

  Latest flash here too. Pale Moon browser on win 7.

  I don't think its CPU related at all.  When I click and hold on the aim icon the dot speed returns to what it should be, as soon as I release the aim icon then they return back to slow fast slow fast....
