This will be remembered as one of the greatest breakthroughs in the history of mobile WGT.

  Will I get better at putting with the New Green View? I don't know... Maybe, maybe not.

  I'm excited and ready to conduct lots & all kinds of crazy experiments with this, though.

  Also the Shot Data Panel looks very helpful, too. (I wish I had it when mapping my irons. It would've saved so many balls! Well, better now than never.)

  Bravo to all of WGT staff! :-)

  Regards,

  Simon

  Yeah but it doesn't putt the same way as in a real tournament. I can make every single putt in the practice putting greens. Than I try doing the exact same thing in a tournament and sometimes its not even close. I can't figure it out!

  Same holds true when comparing MP formats like ALT, Stroke, Skins, and Match Play versus single play.  Same putts I make in single play miss (and sometimes badly) in all multi-player formats.  Been complaining about this forever lol (just ask my CC buddies - sure they sick of it). 

  I'm sure some of it may be in my head but the rest is WGT playing tricks on my putting line lol.

     Why anyone would expect consistency from a game that's based on variations and randomness is beyond me.

      Take it for what it is, a business that's for profit, as any business should be, and a way to kill time.

      The old " It is what it is" comes to mind.

  I started 3½ years ago here at WGT. NEVER did I hit a ball in fairway or putt it on green I found it was wgt fault ( except meter lag for sure). After a bad shot I always find what I DIDNT do right.

  That's the issue right there ^^.  I tell my buddies it's WGT, other teams slow play, and quite often my own teammates Shirt color.  Shiny things are blinding.  Point being, in games in general it's never the users fault ;).

  Man... Did this happen in a real tournament?

  What's the penalty he gets in this case?

  Disqualification?
