Approach shot to greens before shooting

  We should be able to see the lie's of the green eye level before we shoot to the greens.  It would be nice because you would  see the actual dips and alleys of the green better.

  Plus we should be able to dress our Avitars with different colours of hats, shoes, shirts and pants just to make the avitars different because you could be golfing and both players have the same avitar but if you had the choice you could have both with pink shirts but one could have a black hat, or white hat, or different coloured pants or shoes.

  I think it would just make the game that more fun for everyone. Please WGT make the game that much more interesting for everyone.

  Thank you

  Wouldn't that make the game too easy? Do you walk 150 yards to the green to inspect it before each approach in real life?

  1) Choose the pitch shot, use the zoom view, click on the green - voila, your contoured grid. Don't forget to switch back though.

  2) Get yourself that white avatar from the Elite shop - colours should be at your choice.

  The grid available with Pitch/Chip shot mode can be moved around too. Because it can be moved, many advanced players use the Pitch/Chip shot mode grid to read the break of putts too.

  Also note that whatever camera position you choose, the Pitch/Chip shot mode grid is always displayed at 20 feet square, so it can be used as a wind offset measuring aid.

  Because Flash uses layers, I don't think the avatar options the OP asks about can be done in a way that would not degrade game performance.
