    I takes a few seconds to load views going from forward to reverse. Many times, I flip to reverse to pick my landing area, but then have to flip back to take shot.

     

    Would be great if you could set up the game to also take full shots ( like this one ) from the reverse view to save time and get another look at your shot.

    Thanks

    No sooner do you post this and it's done.  Lizzie and I were playing St Andy's back 9 earlier.  Now, she'll probably shoot me for this, but I just want to prove your point.  We were on the par 5 14th.  After a perfect drive (trying to make you look good too Lizzie) her 95% 3w 2nd shot ran up the left side of the bank onto the green... and kept running left... and running... and running... and running.  Now we all know that most of the greens at St Andy's are double greens and the holes they represent add up to 18.  So, she actually finished just off the left side of the 4th green (as viewed from the 14th fairway), part of the 4th's fairway.  At this point, got to say, would have been one hell of a putt if it had stayed on the green, with, I think, a bunker in the way.  Well, as there are no cameras over there, poor Lizzie had to play the shot in reverse view.  She got all confused (no sexist comments now please, like "what would you expect, she's a woman" - there's no need for them) and got a warning as her timer ran down.

    She did eventually play her shot and got her par.  I got a birdie.

    So, if you want to play shots in reverse view, hit your shot onto (or through) the adjoining green.

    I think Lizzie's posting style is rubbing off on you, Mio.  This seems alot more loquacious than is normal for you.

    On topic, this would be a great addition.

    Liquorice has nothing to do with it.  But I do like liquorice.

    I think there is a camera pan angle that can give you a reverse view on comand, whats the problem?
