    1.) CTTH - 2.) Bali Hai. - 3.) Challenge 1, 106 yrds.

    3 meter stutter/ spike - ALL 3 on the same hole. - ALL 3 go in the water. - ALL 3 were Callaways.

    There was no hope for the first ball. Between the wind, meter and a severe shank off the tip of the club, the ball was GONE.

    BUT - the second and third water balls were meter stutters with a wicked spike that were just plain rediculous. Also - when one of the balls hit the very edge of the pond, it bounced out, then up and  splashed into the water "on the grass"..lol. It was very strange. Literally - there was a splash on the "fairway" between the green and the pond. Oh well. I had to vent. 3 freaking Callaways  - GONE in a matter of minutes.

    Been grinding the RSG Back Nine CTTH.  Although I haven't lost any balls the meter is just plain ridiculous.  Cost me more than 20 shots at the lead in that tourney on the last hole.

    Such a shame that WGT developed such a great looking game that just plain doesn't function correctly for the majority of players.  Even worse, we know they don't give a rat's a$$.

    Now time for the rats to chime in that their meter is fine.  Congratulations my friends but your part of an ever growing minority.

    But the funny thing is every one else even WGT claims its your computer. When so many claim the meter stutters or sticks. So many times today I would go to hit the ball and it would just sit there in full swing for a couple of seconds and finally it hit the ball.

    I personally would reboot the servers once a day, they are too many players playing this game and probably not enough ram and gigs in the servers to handle it all. Yes its a shame to loose a ball no matter what it is, to the water cause of the meter. But you have the choice to swing or not, just dont hit it and it will follow thru and you can rehit it with out losing a stroke.

    Thats the problem with a free game to many far and inbetween updates, if they have a good thing going theres no reason to have updates cause people will spend money and buy new balls. I tried the unlimited freebies here yesterday must say I didnt do to bad with them, Normally use Calloways but I only buy them with free credits. Plus they dont last too long for the price That WGT is charging.

    personally its just not that easy to pull out of a shot when it squirts or stutters. when its affecting a lot of shots the confidence takes a hit and i start pulling them was early on normal shots. i really dont think blaming the computer is an answer since the meter stutter thingy happens every few days, in between flawless rounds. so i will get maybe 3 to 4 days of stutter then 1 to 2 days stutter free etc.  its worse when the meter 'squirts' ie your are watching the meter and click when u think its on the dingline but it stops just before and hangs for a bit then takes your click which u happen to press on the dingline only to see it stop 5 mm after or worse 2cm after, there goes the ball into weeds. wot ca u do.
