  I admit at times,  i misbehave but i'm being serious this time,  I am blind in one eye and i take medication for pain because off a motorcyle accident 16 years ago.  

  I use the old Ping G10 masters Clubs (before the change over) and the slowest balls i can find, i've not used the Gallaways yet  even though i have got some, using up old stock first. Not played for a while because i'm on new medication, played a couple of Blitz games and i'm struggling. 

  Can i get a slower meter speed or is this as good as it gets or am i just going to have to knuckle down and get used to it, a bit of help needed please. Ta. 

  Cheers....Lucky

  The Callaways will slow your meter down as will any of the GI3 or GI2 balls compared to the Tour GI-SD balls you show in your bag now.

  Have you played the slower meter Rapture irons?  If you can deal with a different meter speed between drivers& wedges/irons it could help too.

  Andyson's right, the more feel dots the slower the meter.

  Cheers and many thanks andyson/SGTBilko, i did not know about the Feel dots always went with the spin it maybe time for a change of Balls and clubs, i needed the extra distance as i went up the levels, one can only but try.

  I cannot complain about the Meter jumping about since the new Meds, now its the whole Monitor.

  Thanks and now you have my love, platonic i can assure you. lol

  Lucky-Look at Andyson's idea about the Raptures. The way you come and go with the game those G10s are hard to pick up and play when you've been away for a bit. The Raptures are a lot easier to grab and play with and given your situation I think they would probably make the game a little more enjoyable for you.
