  I see three possible szenarios:

  - your avatar was turned but your aimer was well in place where you wanted it. Then, the shot should have gone where you desired.

  - the avatar followed the aimer to an unwanted point due to an inadverted error of yours. Then, the shot would go astray.

  - some new game error that I don't know lead to a different outcome.

  For analysis, it would be best to have a replay URL from you.

   

  To avoid it the best you can, make sure that the marker shows about the distance of the desired shot or even more. This avoids some nasty deviations of "too close" aimers.

   

  On a different note, I'm reminded that some players get fun from turning the CTTH games to FFTH (furthest from the hole). Select Starter balls and try to aim away from the hole to achieve the biggest number possible in a nine hole game!

  You saw that your avatar was turned around and you still made the shot??? Not too smart.

  Unlike you to have a nasty streak :)......................or simply the plain truth.

  But...."from the OP's status "I learn so much with every shot. I just don't remember it.

  Are there synergies?

  This happens in the mobile game when you are trying to adjust your T/S or B/S, you tap on your ball and it doesn't react to your tap. Tap it the 2nd time and it allows you to adjust your spin, but the direction of your shot has been reversed.Your ball goes the same distance only it usually O.O.B. because you've adjusted your aimer to the wind direction.

  I thought it was just me, because of my big fingers on such a small screen. You won't notice it unless you check your camera angle again. And in the mobile game rooms, you're lucky to get 1 camera check before you time out.
