  please fix the program, so that scores aren't messed up, because people don't realize they have been automatically switched to the 150 ft putt setting, without notice.

  much respect...

  hi

  i know where it happens but why is it an issue? it will only become one when you do not look at the meter? I think it happens due to fringe and many folks actually prefer 150ft meter so they only have to hit  very little distance (easier to ding)

  I hope this does not become a problem for me, not looking to see what setting or which club is in play before I hit the shot.

  I make it a point to look at the distance of the shot, as well up-hill / down-hill / wind, then I pick what club where to hit it and how before sending the ball on it's way. Like with second shot after hitting off the tee most times it gives the 3 wood even though it is closer to 200 yards to green with my 3 wood hitting 225 plus. I know before I hit the ball that it is going to go screaming off the back side it has become habit to look at the distance then decide what to do.

  It is always amusing to me that people complain about the distance setting when it only takes a quick glance to see it.  The same with green speed, is it so hard to just look.
