   cause a player to use buttons to guide the ball.

  100% the reason I play wgt from my touch screen pad. It has built in motion sensors like a cell phone.   If I see my ball is about to miss the hole, I can just hit the side of the touch screen computer and it will jar the ball into the hole.  Very similar to when you are playing pinball except there is no "TILT" feature that causes you to loose a ball.

   

   

   

  I call total BS on that Run.  No way does nudging the ball when playing from your touchscreen notepad work.

  I totally agree that there should be a draw/fade feature, I do not know how complicated  it is for WGT but if introduced should certainly not be an easy thing for a player to perform,  There are courses in real life and some in this game Olympic and Congressional to name a few that if you cannot draw the ball you will struggle to break par for 18 holes, Watch the real US Open now in a few weeks at the Olympic, You will see all the players using their draw and fade skills as it is totally necessary on a course with dog legs left right and center.

  I guess he thinks I'm not telling the truth. I found the thread here.

  Good find Richard.   I like alex's response a few years ago, they must be getting close to releasing it by now.     It would be a great addition for negotiating some of olympic tee shots.  Now I do the ole super early/late clicks in the dark blue like on bp2

  Hi Boffman, it was a mirage... it's a feature we are working on but it is not yet ready for release.

  Now if ever there was a cheat that would be considered one in my book. Hope that is never implemented. That's a retarded idea considering there are many many more ideas that are better . Try implementing some commentating or better sounds for the game.

  i quite like the way i can draw and fade on this game, its not a dead cert and is risky but is possible like in real golf, fading and drawing will always take off distance as your not hitting the ball true :)

  I thought it could be implemented just by adjusting the feet/stance, I certainly don't want remote control balls, just a little adjustment to the stance before tee off or long fairway shot.
