  Hi Dave,

  In order to share on the forum, you need to click the media button above ... looks like a strip of 35 mm film (11th Icon over ... starts with Bold, Italic, Underline ... etc.)

  You'll get a dialog box, then paste in the URL.

  Hope that helps.

  Here's your link:

  Not very real when a wedge that 99 out of 100 shots stops dead with no spin,that bounced 20 yards forward and no there was no strong tail wind,not realistic at all.....but I take it with a grain of salt it's not often I get a WTF shot so it's all good,just had never seen a green bounce like a trampoline....

  It could happen, even IRL.

  If replay viewed with Cam 3 and a quick [right-click/Zoom] centered on pin, you can see the ball almost holes out on fly.

  Trouble is it hits the edge of hole at about 7:30 point relative to line-of-flight (if 6 o'clock on the hole rim is straight back at initial lie) - then it caroms off towards 2 o'clock (right-long).

  Them's the breaks! It's a game of millimeters, sometimes, lol.
