  Fix this !!  a 2 inch uphill 9 ft fast green, go to pitch, my wedge 100% (22yds) hit for 60% and it goes 2 ft ???  What BS !!! it was on Congressional #2 !!

  Seriously this game is more F up than 5 years ago and we know you don't care !! that is until another Golf Game comes out that does work !!

  Just fix the game !! quit with the stupid voice that says "Nice Shot !" when your 5 yds past the pin !

  "Thats in the Garbage Spot !" ..... well no, this game is heading for the Garbage !!!

  WGT QT & Programmers get your heads out of your ......... (fill in the blank)

  Missing info:

  - lie characteristics,

  - distance to flag, distance to green,

  - a replay?

  Exactly...A few green  "sides"  @ Congressional are known for 60/70%  &   70/80% lies.  # 2 being one of them.   That's 6 and 7 inch US Open rough. Pulling 60% power with a 22 full "pitched wedge" is something like 12.5 - 13 'ish  yards. Your lucky you made "contact."   That's not a BS situation at all. Have you ever attempted a pitch from a 6 to 7 inch rough ?

  That sounds like a chip instead of a pitch.  Since the default shot these days is a chip, you just might have missed changing it. Done it myself. :-)

  Never here, but confess to trying it once in real play...with about the same result as above ;-}}   ~SP~

  That choke with 58? wedge can kill people! No wonder it didn't reach the green

  Wait a second here. Reading this again it looks like that pitch was on the green! Forget it, pitching on a green doesn't work. I thought you had tried from the rough off the edge.
