Rifle57:

Does anyone know how to get rid of the Shot Pal and Putter Pal Tab that is now at bottom under swing meter bar. It's kind of distracting and it also blocks my vgg caddy increments on certain shots. Thanks.

another thing to annoy us :(

Thanks for the reply T, well said, and let's hope WGT takes notice and does something.

If they don't fix this, I am likely to quit playing on WGT. I just played my first round with that annoying tab and I had a very mediocre score because it was so distracting. I will never use putter pal or shot pal....I find both of those very distracting to use.

Can't we just permanently turn off shot pal and putter pal like before? Or at least move that tab somewhere away from the meter so it isn't so distracting.

Fix it soon, WGT. I am quite sure that others are like me and will be likely to just quit playing on here.

I agree with Tamara....and so does everyone else with whom I have chatted about this today. It is a horrible change and WGT needs to fix it ASAP. If they don't, they will lose a LOT of income.

Very distracting florescent green tab. Take it away, we don't need it.

TDeBaker:

Dear WGT design team:

While the Shot Pal toggle button seems handy enough for players who use either shot or putter pal, it is placed in a very distracting place. The left side of the meter is the “business end” where this button overlapping the meter and visually interfering with shots significantly diminishes the quality and enjoyment of game play.

Just from a design perspective, cramming it in like that has a very poor aesthetic in a game that usually has a very high standard for aesthetics.

Here are a couple suggestions to improve the situation.

Move the button. The “business end” of the meter should be unencumbered and free from visual distractions.

The best place for it would be in the club selection menu, next to “putter” and below the 8 and 9 iron. This way players can toggle it easily and it would not be a visual distraction for anyone.

If it has to be on the main view window please move it to the right of the meter. Making it smaller and vertical would allow it to fit between the meter and the golf ball.

Also if it must be on the main page, and especially if it is not moved to an unoffending location, please make it such that it is only present IF shot pal or putter pal are selected on in game options.

Those of us who do not use these products would appreciate it.

Thank You

TD
