    Has anyone noticed a complete change in how the meter reacts to a mouse click?

    Just a thought: are you using a wireless mouse?  If so, it may be battery time. Otherwise, good luck.

    I have a corded mouse ... same one that I have been using for months with no problem ... in the last 48 hours the game has become unplayable with the delayed reaction to the mouse click.

    Also ... it keeps changing clubs as I move the aiming point ... I have watched it cycle from driver to 9 iron... when I select the club ... and then move the mouse ... it will change the club again ... just before I hit.

    Sounds like it's time for a new mouse. It sounds like your wheel thinks it should be spinning. That would cause club changes.

    I recommend for people that use ball mouses, please get a optical or laser mouse, because they will not have to be cleaned every few hours around the ball, because there is no ball. LOL! If you do have ball mouse from the 80's or 90's, then maybe you need to come to the future of things that work better.

    1. keep your fingers away from the scroll wheel during pre-shot routine and during actual execution of shot;

    2. check for debris, cookie crumbs, etc., between scroll wheel and the left or right clickers;

    3. if software for mouse allows, deactivate scroll wheel.

    Thanks for the responses folks.

    I have an optical USB mouse that is about 2 months old. The game has worked just perfect until 12:30AM today.

    Now it is unplayable.

    Support told me to watch the "how to hit" tutorial. I was not impressed.

    When I told them I am experienced in playing the game they responded with "we are glad you watched the How To Hit tutorial. Please go to the user forums to find help there"

    Even less impressed. 

    Anyway, after spending many thousands of credits, I had hoped for more...I am glad I have you guys to reach out to. I am jonesing for a game big time and it but I cannot play, :-(

    Continued suggestions are very welcome!!!

    been using same mouse for month's and never had a issue with the meter for the past while now..was in a stroke play with a gentlemen earlier and he said his meter would not stop when he clicked near meter..he lost 2 balls to the water on Sa #1..it was definitely one of the weirdest things I had seen in quite some time.

    I have an "optical" mouse and the swing meter is ridiculous right now and even after making adjustments, it is still not allowing me to click anywhere close to the ding.  It is way to the right for me, is it the same for some of you others that have made comments?

    I haven't had the club change issue yet and I hope that I do not.

    Has anyone asked WGT about this sudden change? Obviously a few of us are experiencing it and I doubt we are all techno-neophytes.

    Any comments would be appreciated.
