  I think this would be a big seller for WGT.

  You purchase this the same way you purchase Putter Pal or Shot Pal. Per shot.

  You select which club in your bag, excluding the putter, you want the meter speed to be. Once selected the meter remains that clubs speed for all clubs in your bag.

  As equipped my clubs have 4 different meter speeds:

  R1 Driver

  R11 Irons

  3W and Clev Wedges are the same, I believe.

  TM Wedge

  I don't use Putter Pal or Shot Pal. I use avatar movements. But I guarantee you I would purchase Meter Match shots by the gross.

  As a golfer (albeit usual Sunday one having giving up team sport some years back ) I am happy that my woods / |irons do not match, same as IRL. For me that adds to this and I do not find it a negative in any way.

  I also doubt that anything that might make this game easier will not come in to production. Computer game wise I can't see that average me would care ............................top computer gamer people??? No harm putting it up though!

  I can see where the OP is coming from. It does seem strange that as you move up through the tiers you try to keep all your clubs at the same meter speed, but when you reach around level 90, if you want to compete then you have the R11 woods, the R11 irons, the top of the range wedges and a quality putter. 4 different meter speeds. Something's wrong.

  Computer gaming V RL.......fair enough comment's from all. I will say that for me frequency variation does not seem strange at all as I like the "sim" bit!

  Interestingly a good drummer just reported that he could not ding any better than any one else he felt. This is expert affirmation (to me) that the speed varies anyway, and so I wonder the worth in that light??????????

  Funny you say that. I started drumming at 8 years old. Played in 2 different bands up until I was about 30 or so. I can't ding for crap.
