On the green straight view/angle to the cup!

  Can somebody tell me why is it not possible, like in real life, to view the line straight? Why its always, from an angled position, with a view that does not allow a descent shot? Even if you use the different views/angles...

  It makes the game more challenging .... just need to wrap your head around it and adjust how you see the shot.

  If the game is to easy, interest is lost quickly. The harder the better I say.

  IRL you have an unlimited number of views because you can move around. Here, WGT has a limited number of green views and when you land on the green, the closest view to straight is presented in the best picture they have from your spot.

  When you get a crooked view there's a couple of things you can do. One is to look at the putt in the reverse view and the other is to use the +/- by the camera icon to scroll through the available views. You can usually get a serviceable view doing this.

  Unlock the grid and drag a line to between ball and hole, read the dots then put your aimer back to where you want it before putting. Do it in forward and reverse views as one is usually better ,depending on where you landed.
