  So you really believe that WGT has the capability to alter the meter depending on which ball you use?

  Me too I've the impression that the balls are more or less the same.  I use L81 or L71 and I'ven't any problem and I don't feel difference. Abt the music tempo I think it depends on the connection, as everything in internet. Sometimes the uploading is fast, sometime is slow.

  I was a percussionist too and piano player in my young years, 45 years ago! It's a matter of fact that a good feeling with the rythm is very important in any sport. Bye

  Sure .

  Each item,  such as your clubs and  and balls are files. Each of these files consist of  scripts with attributes.

  These attributes, lets take balls for instance.The distance, spin, feel, and durability are all lines of code written that defines each of the aforementioned parameters with an attached picture and animation.

  So everytime you swap your ball your just swapping files

   Yea they could tweak them if desired .

  As far as the meter goes, your ISP and internet congestion and computer probably have more to do with it.

  Well said Travis. WGT is always tweaking something...they have to. But I'd bet on the fact the user side has more to do with it than anything.

  Nike L81 slow meter ball is slower than.......................whether within that it gets tweaked a little here and there, very possibly, but it is slower as advertised!

  The 450 credit and 550 credit balls are so similier there's not reason to spend the extra 100 credits. Also I grabbed a sleeve of level 33 Cally's (250 credits) and the meter was only a tad faster.

   For some reason, and i have tried all the slower meter nikes and the slow meter callys, the meter on the callys to me seem slower, but you dont have the spin as you do on the Nikes, and i agree the meter on the Nike does seem faster, but i cant afford those max balls where you can go smoke a cigarette and come back and still hit the ding, and they dont last and lame spin also. LOL
