  That's fine, as long as you refrain from citing "green center measurement" in WGTland :)

  Enjoy the Holidays!

  At tee box before drive distance to hole 330 yrds (wrong)

   

  I always looked at the distance at the top right corner of screen, Until I started playing comps from shorter Tees.

  Off the Blacks this distance is pretty true, but off the Whites the distance can be wrong. St.A #9 is a perfect example, I think #10 aswell.

  alosso:

  Nominal distance on Par4s and Par5s is to one fixed pin in WGTland, and if the other is on, you'll see it

  - when hovering over the blue dot on the mini-map,

  - when pulling the marker to the pin,

  - like you did, when adding shot length and distance left.

  Par3s always show the current distance

  This is pretty spot on by Alosso.    Always hover your mouse on the blue dot on the mini map to get correct distance.

  Thank you for the support, Roger,

  Excuse me, it's no difference from the tips, we only have less chance to reach the green (366 @STA#10). This, IMHO, was the motivation of Alberich's rant: He hit 331 for 330, perfectly close to the scorecard distance which on #10 is to the left pin, but ended up in a long miss because the active pin (in the green front, cf. his screenshots) is at 317, 13 yds shorter.

  Another one.

   

  
  
  Everyone say that the distance is not 378 as written on up right corner (distance tee to flag)
