  Would'nt this be a great game if we could fade or draw the ball. 

  We already could spin the ball by lowering the impact on the ball, WGT allows us

  to also move the impact dot left and right also to spin the ball for working the ball left to right or right to left.

  They have said before they are working on it. It must not be as easy as we think to program.

  You can simulate the affects of draws and fades though. Click a little  early for a simulated draw and click a little late for a simulated fade.

  Not the same , plus it's tricky enough trying to time the meter.

  Yes it can be and timing the meter is tough but easy to do, especially depending on the ball. A full 20mph cross wind is easy if you take to the extreme hash lines. I have pulled many a balls right in to the pin. GL

  as a novice in the real game of golf, I can tell you, having the abilty to draw or fade the ball is much more different than riding the wind to the hole. 

  First off there are the doglegs in the fairway, and many times the wind is not there, second, the draw shot is the most sought out shot to attain as the ball does travel a little farther and is more consistent in distance.

  I've been playing WGT for some some now, I know how to ride the wind when necessary, WGT is one of the best online games out there, just a sugesstion to make it better.

  If this is implemented WGT should make it harder to "ding" the shot as it is harder to hit in real life.

  And maybe it should get easier to hit with more experience...
