  WGT, while you work on issues in the game, please take time to work on the camera angle.

  Just had to put a hole staring at the side of a bunker.  All I could see was my avatars HAT !

  I would think this would require some simple code that the camera elevation is never below the golfers shoulders .... or something like that..  Like: IF MINCAMELEV < PLAYERSSHOULDERELEV THEN MINCAMELEV = PLAYERSSHOULDERELEV..

  Please look into it..   While at it, GET RID of the silly divit graphics.  They are worthless and add nothing to the game.....

  unfortunately there are some spots that just don't have enough pictures of them to give you a good view of the green. In that case the best option is to putt from the reverse angle. Some players only putt from the reverse angle and swear by it. I do both depending how long the putt is but I prefer to put from the normal angle.

  Agree about the divots though, you even get them from sand.

  I laugh at them because they look like tiny mushroom clouds, like the ants were having a nuclear war.  :-D

  For the putting views I believe Kia is the only place it's really prevalent. That course, being the first, has some odd stuff in it-views across water, behind trap walls, greens that aren't exactly what you see and trees you can't hit, to name a few.
