Re: Camera Angles

  It has been a little frustrating on several holes throughout several courses to find that the camera angles on the green just isn't sufficient.  At the very minimum, we should have a closeup camera directly in front and in the rear.  Everything else is a bonus.  What I have found on some greens, is that there are several different camera angles, but none of them supply the information needed to make even a short putt (3-6 ft) with confidence if there is a slope.  

  We should have every opportunity to get a "Good Look" at our lie to help determine our strategy.  Viewing from 60 feet away or at a bad angle makes the shot unlikely and frustrating.  We never see the reason why we have extra stokes on our scorecards, but this is the hidden strokes built into the course.  Please, someone fix this aggravating issue.

  Please let me explain:

  There is no "should" in this game, and it's provided as-is, WYSIWYG.

  So, until there might be more photos available - and the resources to fit them into the courses - there will be no additional views.

  Furthermore, as a general rule, this applies:

  They are WGT, hope is futile.

  So, you better learn to putt from reverse views.

  If you stop playing on Kiawah then most of your problems will disappear.

  And pulling the flag as the ball nears the hole. What he's looking for is called a "caddy."
