  This has happened to me a few times now, but not as bad as your putt there. I would say it was about 90 % in the hole.

  Here's one of mine

  Only one thing is for certain HacoJerk.......anyone sees you in the lobby then they should give you a MISS !!

  In my top 5 assholes I've ever met on this site..and THAT is saying something !

  Your language ( for no good reason, you're not even joking ) is a disgrace....

  Matched only by your sportsmanship and respect for fellow players.

  Both of which you are severely lacking in.....

  ...and don't forget the quitting, he's a serial quitter as well.

  It's quite funny, if he's not on, what he sees as, the strongest (he goes by avg's lol) alt shot team, he cries and moans until he goes 1 down and then quits.

  I have no idea what happens if he goes 1 up.  ;)

  it's not a bug.

  The photos we see on the screen can't always exactly match the ball position the software has calculated.

  The ball position the software calculates determines where your ball is, not where on the photos we see on the screen the ball is shown. That WGT can get the photos we see on the screen and the calculated position of the ball as close as they do is quite an achievement in and of itself. 

  So sometimes ball position around the hole doesn't jibe with the result calculated by the software and what looks top be in the hole isn't.

  In the same way we sometimes see our ball on the screen in the rough but the game has determined our ball is on the fairway. Or the other way around, ball looks to be on the fairway but the game has determined our ball is in the rough.

  I think i'm experienced enough here to know it was not hit too fast and yes i can see it missed....

  But looking at your putting stats i'll bow to your superior knowledge , ty for your input !!

  Thanks for clearing that up. Now you've explained it, it makes sense. I thought it was just WGT robbing me as usual.
