    You can't just change it, you'd have to have the option of doing both.  There are loads of us who don't use the metric system.  I remember going to play real golf in Portugal and I was totally screwed as they don't give hole distances in yards.

    whats the difference ?? as long as you have some kind of graduation to use for reference .. you know a yard is 36 inches ?? a meter is 39   it shouldnt pose a big problem for you ... I dont think I ever hearing them using the metric system on television when I watch golf .. 

    And..... I have never been that accurate of a player myself to worry too much about precise yardages ... are you that good??  lol   all the numbers on here are relative to the game ,, pretend it is meters.. ?? wouldnt that work?? i guess if you have no idea what an inch or foot is it might be tricky sometimes but there are conversion tables available everywhere...

    The WGT clubs and yardage distances are relative to each other, no conversion is necessary. Just pretend it is Meters, yards, cubits, or what ever, the amount of power needed to make a good shot will be exactly the same on the swing meter!
