  Hi,I was just watching a video of a match play between 2 tour legends.

  Something caught my attention aside the fact they were 2 great players.

  One of them seemed

  to be able to keep his full back swing up,then move the curser away until he was ready to hit,then click and the down swing would start to move down.

  I don't know if I'm being clear,but when I decide to hit ,the movement of the curser to be in a comfortable place for me to try and ding the shot,is a distraction because the downswing swing is already on it's way.

  This player seemed to be able to get ready for his shot while the full swing was still not moving.In other words his back swing seemed to be on hold,until he was ready to hit.

  Let me know if this is possible.TY

  You can always move the "swing" cursor while holding the mouse button pressed - no secret there. You only have to avoid any "down" movement.

  OTOH, it's only a question of timing and skills to move the cursor while the meter is running.

  Well, i know for sure this is something i cant do. Is there any chance you can put up a link to that video Senec? Maybe we can solve this if we can see it.

  Yes Alosso is right, I'm the same, after I've given the power I've a certain place i move the icon that says "swing" to make me feel more comfortable hitting ding.  Pro's have their shot routines, we're probably the same but with the downsing/meter

  I think what Senec is saying is this:

  The player is able to power up the shot, and somehow stop the meter at full power. While that power is at full, the player is then able to go and adjust the direction of the shot, while the full power stays where it is without releasing, and heading towards the ding line, as if there was a pause button to hold it there.

  In my game i have to make the directional adjustments before i go near the power bar. Not that i cant do it, but it would only make me make mistakes while trying to adjust the direction of the shot, and the power bar is hurtling towards the ding line. Hope this makes sense also, lol.

  Exactly,except the part where"the player is then able to go and ajust the direction of the shot,while the full power stays".The player does that before he starts his back swing.

  I just want to make a precision here;I am not in any way implying any cheating method,this player as this video streaming on his profile for everyone to see  and on the 19th of febuary,witch was yesterday.

  The reason I'm not mentioning the person is because I'm afraid there might be a misunderstanding.I am not playing detective here I'm just trying to learn new tricks to make me a better player.

  It would help if you posted a link to the video so we could see what you're talking about

  Would this player be sliding the power to the left to set full BS, then moving cursor up and to the right?...If so, it's doable without changing meter power.

   

  But one question, did the "swing" icon stay, or did it disappear into a regular mouse cursor?
