The big question, I hear people say their distances are out and theyhave tried uninstalling and reinstalling app and it either has made a difference or it hasn’t.
To the video game tech’s out there my question is, is it possible when doing a reinstall of our wgt app that it can make a difference to our club distances ?
I know myself hasn’t done a reinstall of the app in over 10 months.
I've heard of this. personally I think it's a fairy tale.
More than likely when something is "way off" it's because I broke my routine and made an error.
Examples:
In my head I did the math for a shot while waiting on someone then the game gave me the wrong club and i forgot to check to change it.
Or I forgot to add backspin to an iron shot and hit it flat.
Didn't notice that i was in fringe and came up 2 feet short on a putt.
Was in fringe semi close to a hole. didn't notice. didn't check the meter and it was on 100 foot meter. Bang it past 25 feet or more.
Screwed up and hit a downslope on a green on st and with approach.
Sometimes the club doesn't change to what you clicked. always double check.
Exception: Some "rough" shots on erin hills actually are bunker shots. I hate being in rough near bunkers on Erin Hills for this reason. Always been that way though and they've never fixed it.
TLDR- its more than likely human error. Reinstall likely does nothing.
