  Indeed, the chipping is a pain. And we do have end of November and still not fixed. Guys, I`ve paid 200€ for that package. Why dont you do something? You make it hard for m to buy that again. 

   

  I've stopped plaing courses, cause it is annoying like hell.

  To the WGT product improvement guys, are you guys ever gonna fix this short chip / flop shot issue with SkyTrak? It's been almost a year since problem has been reported. At the very least, allow users to accept 2 or 3 strokes from just off green from 5, 8, 10 or 12 yards from the pin? At ~5 yards from pin just off green, it is basically impossible to chip close to pin as SkyTrak will only read if you chip well past green and often times off green (especially in a narrow green) + in real life most people choose to putt just off the green 5 yards from the pin anyways. Thanks.

  Skytrak said some days ago, that they fixed it on their side and shipped it to WGT.

  i think this is a problem on all types of swing analysers, i know on the gc2 launch monitor software you can set the gimmie distance cause the putting n chipping is so poor.

   

  Thats all they need to do set gimmie distance to what ever you want

  I really hope we hear something soon.  Being able to play and compete on WGT was a big part of the reason I bought a SkyTrak and spent all of the money setting up the impact screen, hitting mat, etc. It is beyond frustrating that I can't be competitive because my chips won't read if they aren't hit way too hard.  Also, we should have multiplayer options.  These two issues are critical for customer satisfaction!

  Multiplayer and chipping fix would be great. For sure chipping will get fixed and for Multiplayer they charge us extra...

  I'm ok if WGT takes a little bit of time to implement the SkyTrak fix for short chips. However in the meantime can WGT PLEASE simply allow SkyTrak users take 1 or 2 stroke when within 3 or 12 yards, respectively, from pin even if off green (except if in bunker of course). Most golfers putt from just off green anyways and this saves SkyTrak WGT users from having to chip 10-20 times just to try to get SkyTrak to read the chip (and failure to do so has to chip harder over pin and often over green just to get the SkyTrak to read the chip). This should be a simple add (even I can write the code needed for this).

  By the way, is there anybody from WGT even reading these product suggestions from users paying $200/year to play WGT on their SkyTraks?
