    Hi

    Yes, the greens where not fast.

    And by the way, I had some really strange shots in my round. Maybe it is 

    only me!

    I didn't notice any weird shots in the 1,500cr RG but Kiawah in low winds ... WOW. For the last month or so one or two shots per round have been way off. I have been sending the recordings to WGT along with bug reports and of course no response from WGT. 

    Check out the 9:00 minute mark of the video below. 

    KIAWAH

    Typical 8 iron shot doing what it wants to do.

    Lately, I've had one/two shots per round that defy logic, too. Not a bit off, but way, way off. I've also noticed that the 1-3 winds are very similar to the old 0 mph winds. I've had shots in those 1-3 winds that would go opposite the wind (one time I was 29ft opposite the wind and pin high).

    I asked about those 0 mph winds once, and was told by a mod that the circle of precision is more evident in no wind. Something like 25ft or so. That's a huge difference in the landing/stopping area of a green and the upcoming putt. Makes no sense whatsoever to have 1-3 winds, then have the unreal, physics-defying deviation affect the shot.

    I dread seeing 1-3 mph winds, lol. I know my shot is going to be like hitting the BB 3wd. Potluck, as to where it's going on a precision shot (approach or tee shot, not banging it down a fairway).

    I doubt you'll get any response Jason.

    The 8 iron didn't seem that off. Think what happened was the deviation was magnified by the slight mishit. Has happened to me a few times as well. Far less evident on dings though

    I think they fixed the green speed, lol. Playing like 16 now :-) 

    10' down 2", hit 20% on 20 scale (4ft) and went 16' (very, very little break) :-(  I normally play the 14 speed at 1.4, but after 2 holes, I noticed the greens were like ice, so I adjusted. To me, a 10 dn 2" putt, I'd normally hit it around 6ft (firmer than needed) depending on the course/wind/etc.

    The 2nd hole is quite steeply sloped around the hole so it does exaggerate the speed.

    2nd is the easy pin in this tourney. Birdied 1,2,3. Then 4th hole got me. Then a 3 putt for par on the Par 5 (I chalk that up to still wondering what happened on 4, lol.). Then again, my meter was acting really erratic from 4 on, too. So, that weird putt must have been a shocker to it, also.
