    Folks, i try my best not to get on here complaining about the game. I have been biting my tongue for a long time. But after todays league game in my CC, i just have to get this off my chest. We all talk about the random deviation in the game, but lets have it fair for everyone, eh?

    The shot below has a 3mph wind from right to left. I adjusted my aim to the right for this 3mph wind, and i dinged my shot. The result below is just madness, and i thought i was getting used to it, but this type of crap plagues my game.

    In the same game, i had the following putt type shot happen on 3 separate occasions. The set up was with slow greens, and i hit this putt with 5 foot of power. But as has been seen many a time before, when we know something isnt right, we get the usual helicopter view come into effect on all angles bar angle 1.

    I know im going to get the usual suspects saying i hit it too hard and all the other excuses that pop up, but i know this putt should have dropped. Some say the VEM/Deviation evens itself out, but not from where i stand.

    Everything i say above is true, about dinging the shots etc. Why would i bother coming on here complaining about it if i knew i did something wrong?

    i routinely get misfired shots from hitting the ding. I now avoid the ding unless i have a str8 putt. The wind gauge and green dots are utterly useless now.
