  When this game was developed and upgraded occasionally, what was your intentions in doing so.  I need help sometimes understanding the gross inconsistencies with the game.  A few examples are, 127 yard to pin, up hill 4 feet, 11-13 crosswind, using nike 71 ball and speed blade irons.  What would you do in that case?  Would be interesting to hear from the "expert" programmers on this.  How did you figure it out?  

  Second example........63 yards to downhill pin of 9 feet with 7-9 tailwind........what would you you do?  How did you figure it out?  

  I am really looking for feedback from the gurus, not other players as they have different balls and clubs that react differently.

  Will be interesting to see if I get a reply.

  You know the answer, don't you?

  From the mods' sayings, this is not the place to expect company answers on a regular basis, and the users - us - don't know a thing of reasons and design thoughts. We babble about VEM and hope to be better off next time.

  In my experience, the Hold-Your-Tongue Tribe of Bay Area scarcely lets anything slip out. Last important thing I remember was about the release of Pebble Beach stroke play - the promised time passed unnoticed, and not a word since.

  The mod responsible was then removed from first row forums service. Ciao bello!
