Reverse angle

  Some times on the green if i choose reverse angle the screen shot given is if taken from an aeroplane! and the green is tiny, so making the shot unplayable.

  Given i always choose reverse angle for putting (because it's mostly better than front) is there any way you could sort this out because most of the time the front screen shot is hard to judge so basically you have to just hope for par and not a birdie. ( frustrating if you are scoring well in a tournament!)

  I've had this happen also.... I think it has to do with how soon you click the reverse angle button after the shot loads.  If it's too quick it tends to load the birds eye view angle.  As a workaround what I do is switch to a flop or something and then switch back to the putter.  It usually clears it up for me.  Try it out and let me know if it helps.

  Perhaps it's because 4 that particular spot, the course ain't photographed.

  I had several 'uncomfartable' views 2, although slightly diiferent.

  When you are on the green at KI #17 close 2 the water, it happens that you've only 1angle when putting (thought it was reverse view, could be the arial 2).

  Couple of days ago I had another strange 1. My alt. shot partner hit his drive just leftmiddle fairway at SA #10, 50-70 yds from the pin (middlefront). When I had 2 play my shot, there wasn't a front angle available.....rather curious...and difficult 2 :)

  Cheers, GC

  agreed with Lee - when this happens, switch to chip, or pitch, click the reverse view, then switch back to putter.  It has cleaned it up for me everytime so far.
