I hate to tell you this but it is not the game....it has to be on your end
Ya... You're as wrong as wrong can be there pal.
When you're meter skips, as in jumps like two inches from the middle of the power band to the bark blue? Well ya that's probably going to be your connection.
When you get 'turb-meter' where the meter is moving along and then speeds up by a factor of 10? That's a meter profile being applied to your shot. Something you setup in that shot caused the particular 'timeline' to run against your shot.
There isn't just one meter profile for the game. Quite literally there could be thousands, more likely they're using a much smaller number. But if you record your game and then go back over them, say like 100 or so, you'll see the meter profiles being applied.
Take note of shots where you're in fescue, from like 150, notice how depending on club selection your meter will be fast n smooth, in another instance it's going to be slow and you'll get 'turbo'd, it's not a glitch or your system, it's the game.
Creating one profile for all players to use would be absolutely stupid in a game where the swing meter is based purely on a three state timeline. I mean it's beyond me why it's like that anyway, This game could be 'fixed' in about 3 days and CheatEngine would pretty well be useless and you'd see those rounds of 25/52 vanish. If dinging the meter is your ultimate goal it's very easy to do, and it's not cheating because almost every gaming keyboard and/or mouse comes with that capability built-in.
