  I posted this in another thread. I put a stop watch on the Versa meter ,The level 80 max and the starter and this was the results. 

  The Versa averaged 3.1 seconds over the full meter travel from start to the end.

  the Max averaged 1.9 seconds

  the starter which is supposed to be the same speed as the Versa also averaged 3.1 seconds. 

  This is based on 10 shots with each with the slow meter Nike ball. 

  so it appears that the meter speed is exactly as advertised.

  The versa shows the same speed of the nike putter and it is not. I think that's most peoples problem. If the dots are to be seen as consistent it should be the same speed as the nike

  I believe WGT has done just that. I bought it and the meter seemed way fast to me so I put the max back in. So then I put the Odyssey back in a few days later and the meter is slower. Weather I can make more putts with it is another thing entirely but WGT has tweaked it since its release.

  Well, I have to agree with this.  Just put the Odyssey back in and noticed a slower meter.  Still not the same speed as the Nike - but slower than the original Rossa now for sure.

  TeacHa:

  Why don't you get some max meter balls, then you get your ultra slow-motion pathetic meter that you cry so hard for, eh? You appear that desperate about meter speed, I really hope you're 60+ which I doubt or have some medical condition otherwise your crying is plain sad and pathetic.

  ok thick brains......let me explain it to you again....eventually it should get through the 3ft of crap squatting between your ears.

  it's not about having a super slow meter or slow max balls.

  instead of running off your mouth, why don't you practice finding the bottom of the cup in less than 2 putts more often.

  looks likely anyone with a med condition is you lol......maybe you have the shakes.

  Now mine has slowed up and I'm clicking way too early. Who said they never listen?

  Yes, WGT do listen occasionally all the time.

  Disputing my credibillity by attacking my stats? Cute.
  
  Because the stats that record every putt from the beginning are going to show you how my putting is at the moment, right? Not even close.
  
  But you seem to be quite the stats-maniac, seeing your forged stats is hillarious.

  You are that guy, who immediately after recording a bogey or (god forbid!) 2 pars in a row forfeits / leaves the round to not "ruin" your perfect world there.
  
  And please don't bother denying that or retaliating again with some nonsense.
  
  Either way, the Odyssey putter is a lot slower than the Rossa I had before, you can't dispute that, sorry.
  
  p.s. sweet matchplay stats big boy.

  Yes, keep that Rossa. I will as well. There are subtleties and similarities. Nike 77 made me try to ding after I learned the Rossa. Rossa the 5 footers(minimal break) and Nike 77 the long putts. It will make sense to Rossa players, at least I think. Ding the odyssey w/ the right read and tell me how it goes.....I'm diggin' it.

  Yes... this is correct....

  When I first got the Odyssey the meter speed was the same as the Rossa and I went back to the Rossa... until yesterday when I thought the Rossa was going a bit quick.....lol

  Changed back to the Odyssey and it's slower now.
