  LOL.  I use theirs when they are in school as its in the kitchen/dining room overlooking back garden, easy access for coffee's & smoking in garden (as i'm banned from doing it in house, i like the smell myself.:) and can keep dog company whilst I'm there & get those"you should be walking me rather than spending your time on that damn thing"! sorry looks which can make me feel guilty. But dont worry, I'm relegated to play my own PC when kids finish school, (unless I bribe them to watch TV instead) With the view I have from my back garden its much better playing WGT in my kitchen than upstairs out the way with no view.  But I try to only play WGT until 3, or I would be even more addicted and nothing else would get done.

  Holding down the swing meter was designed for the purpose of decreasing the strength of your swing, For instance. if  you have a 90 Yard approach shot and the only club you have to reach it is a 115 yard wedge, You would want to use the full strength of it, so you can hold the mouse button down and watch the strength meter decrease, thus reducing the strength to only a portion of the 115 yard club, Try it and evaluate it for yourself. I use in when I'm in a bunker or deep rough and I use full wedge and hold the mouse down to get the distance I want.

  Like a few of u I'm glad I checked the forums cuz I've been having this power bar problem 4 the last 2 days - ALSO WG U OWE ME 3 BALLS -  It was fine setting the amount of power needed but when I let the bar drop so that I could ding it - It would come down a little - Freeze & the only way it would move after that was if I moved my mouse but by then the bar had pasted the ding point so so much for that shot & the next & the next - u just had 2 keep going thru the motion till hopefully the bar wouldn't freeze

  U know it's really sad that WG can't print an announcement on the log on page about what their doing - heck shut the site down 4 a few hrs but 2 b mucking around with this while we're playing is stupid - just like Icon's opening reply - we r making a chance - talk about spell check - way 2 go Icon your proofing my earlier thoughts

  Oh well nothing we can do cuz dat's WG 4 ya - I expect my balls back thou  Pls & Thank U

   Wgt has pretty much unplayable last 6 days for me. Can't hit ding 90% of the time, because of erratic swing meter. VEM is also at an all time worst. I suggest everyone refrain from playing until WGT fixes the meter, upgrades their servers, And stop the stupid VEM for good.

  Only way WGT will fix anything is if we hit them in the pockets.

  Most of those problems will be at your end. Why would WGT want to make their game worse?

  First of all, Willy is right and Courteney, sorry you don't have a clue. I see a lot of your comments to be peoples blogs and they all are in favor of  WGT. Second, what a smoozer you are. I myself and many others are experiencing the same problems,  so your going to tell all of us the problems are on our end. You either work for wgt or just one big suck up. Either or, who cares, we all know the problem is with WGT, they are controlling our games and shots solely for profit. I'm a computer technician and have been for 20 years, It's not your browser as Icon would suggest, Maxthon 3 is just a maintenance program which turns off programs running in background which are not needed. This site has one objective, and we all know what that is.  And suck up all you want, wgt  is laughing at you while they are on the way to the bank with all the money you and many people make for them by taking surveys, which in my case , did not get the credits for it, So in all, what's that say about this site, I've came to my own conclusion and quit, you form your own. And if you IQ is really larger than you shoe size, you will not stand around and take this abuse.

  Yes I see that losing your ball purchases is really going to hurt them or is it the balls your are using is why you miss the ding 90% of the time?

  LMFAO.........Remind me NOT to use your 20 yr  technical assistance. MAXTHON3 is a Browser and has nothing to do with maintenance or shutting down background programs.

  I think you might be thinking of GAMEBOOSTER3..
