Alternate shot games

  The alternate shot game is broken. All of the settings are locked. I do not know in what release this changed.

  Having all of the settings locked makes this game far less appealing. Of particular concern is green speed, which automatically switches to the default speed of the player with the highest tier.

  That's the way it's always been.

  That would be an interesting twist, though. AS games with adjustable everything. :-)

  Thanks for the history on this play guys.

  It wouldn't be as bad if it weren't for the green speed being overridden from the game setting and changing to the level of the highest tier in the foursome. It makes it hard to play an alternate shot tournament with mixed tiers.

  If you print this putting scale  and use it with the putter pal, it may help you out with the correct speed.

  Have you tried in practice mode? There'll be more chance of disconnects of course.

  There is no practice option for AS games. Never has been.

  This  thread's like a really poor episode of Mythbusters.
