You say 'meter' and 'yardage markers', I don't know if you're saying 'distance markers'.
There is a setting about that:
menu / game settings / display / (scroll down to) distance markers
Check the box, also the note says 'distance markers aren't avail. on all tournaments' etc.
Maybe you mean the meter settings? Go to edit equip. then there should be 'irons' 'balls' etc. look for 'meters' and see if the one you usually have is selected.
Maybe you were in a CC w/ putter pal or shot pal which you get only when you are a member of a CC at 3 level or something higher, I think.
