  I had an extremely weird bounce off the green at Wolf Creek on 12-8-09 in a closest to the hole challenge and if this don't work....  http://www.wgt.com/gameclient.aspx?view=showReplay&JSON=%7B%20%22GUID%22%20%3A%20%22fd13908b-794d-4625-aa60-9cd9015a40d0%22%2C%20%22Brand%22%20%3A%20%22undefined%22%20%7D  ......the only way I know to show you is to tell you to go to my profile and look at the replay.... its the only one there, so your sure to find it. 

  Has anyone else had one like that?

  Julio, if you noticed I am using the starter balls.... and if you ever tried to put a back spin on one of those then you would know that there was no way for that ball to bounce backwards like it did.... it hit no rock until after it left the green.

  I have watch it over and over and its just a freak thing.... sure my shot was off..... but that was a freak bounce if I ever saw one

  i dont know what the spins got to do with it,when u hook or slice the ball it takes a considerable amount of strength off the shot, ok, you've left the bunker with a hook or pull or stopped it short whatever you wanna call it ok, it hasn'nt made it and hit the rocky wall in front of the green, im positive! from then you had urself a pinball effect, how can you say it didnt hit a rock, its pretty audible to me.

  i hear the thunk of an impact as well..... BUT I also see the ball plain as day hit the green ten feet from the hole, not before the green. Did you see from cam 2?

  If it hit the hill before the green.... then I could see the bounce back because of the rock wall, but I see it hit the green and bounce backwards, and then off everything else, does the trail YOU see NOT make it to the green?

  Thanks for the report. The path seems to show the ball bouncing off the green, but it bounced off the rocks. In the future, please right-click and submit a bug to us. Thanks
