    First off this is not a my meter stutters post. No mine is smooth 99% of the time. My problem is that after 15 or 20 years wearing lined bifocals I just switched to no line and I can not for the life of me hit the ding anymore. I either click way too early or way too late. Has anyone else got or had this problem and have any suggestions to help, short of playing with my old glasses or no glasses?

    What I do is get a pair of reading glasses the same strength as my bifocals and wear them when I play. Just a thought.

    How can you tell how hard you hit it?

    When you zoom in like that you just have to move the mouse as far a you normally do on a drive and hope it is 100% or close to it.

    Not sure how to fix your problem, maybe tilting your head down a little so your not looking at the screen directly. I have trouble clicking the 'ding' most of the time, so I gave up and now clicking just before or after and correcting the direction, with the wind conditions. This has worked pretty good for me.

    Cheers

    I had a pair of glasses made just for the computer, only good for 3 feet. My neck got tired from having to tilt back to see thru the bi-focals.
