  On my ipad the swing meter operates perfectly yet is harder to use due to touch screen.  On my iMac, the swing meter stutters on every swing making it nearly impossible to connect with the ball correctly.  Very frustrating.

  Hi bryanspearman,

  Try the following trouble shooting steps below, particularly making sure that background loading is off. I have also turned down the flash quality and that helped my meter stutter quite a bit. 

  - Trouble shooting steps and system requirements, particularly clearing the browser and Flash cache:

   http://www.wgt.com/forums/t/635.aspx 

  - Close other programs, browser windows and browser tabs 

  - Have the wgt.com website open but minimized and not displayed 

  - Play WGT in the original window size, do not maximize it to full screen

  - Turn off Reflections, Flag Animation, Background Loading, Avatar rotations, and WGT Lessons in your Options

  All the Best,

  Thanks!  All of those seem pretty basic but I didn't realize the game was being effected by them.  I'll give it a shot.

  The game plays on your computer, so how well your computer is set up/maintaned will effect the meter.

  Mobile devices us different operating systems and Internet accessing applications from desktop computers and laptops.

  Use Task Manager to advantage

  You're not using a Windows computer, but some will still apply to your machine:
