    HI,

    what do you mean? that the Back Spin was not aplied?

    I can see the shot But I dont know how did you shot it? what club? how much power? etc..

    If the problem was the spin... there are some complaints about the Back Spin... but on drives specially...

      Would be nice if WGT would incorporate the club used, amount of bs or ts applied and the meter to see if the shot was actually dinged.  :)

    IT happens to me all the time,   pretty sure jordan was using the clevelands in that replay.  

     

    The ball starts to back up but the screen just stops and loads up next shot.  

     

    EDIT***** here is a replay on same hole,  used my 64 degree cleveland with regular cally s ball....full shot, full backspin and dinged,  does the same thing as Jordans.  Screen stops just as it starts to spin back.

    Here is another recent thread on this very thing..

    Happening all the time now (callaway i(s) vapors) their if it means anything.

    The video shows the distance in feet, converted to yards it would be 48 yards, so you must have used the Cleveland 60 yard wedge, if you used full bs on the shot, I read in a forum post that if you apply full bs on this club it does exactly what that shot did and stated that you have to add no more than 3/4 bs to get full bs effect for this wedge. I don't remember who posted it or when. I don't apply any bs for all my approach shots with any of these wedges, instead I calculate distances by avatar movements. I have found that applying backspin on approach shots with any of the Cleveland wedges can produce unpredictable results.

    The 60 yard wedge is about 8 yards per av movement.

    On a full swing with no wind on a flat green with no bs an iz will go 60 yards.

    On the other hand,full top spin will give you 2-3 extra yards depending on the green (front slope back slope landing) wind is a factor that needs to be applied as well.

    Although chipping with the 60 yard wedge with full bottoms full power, it will go just shy of 7 yards and stop dead on the green from a fairway lie with the iz ball with 0 elevation.

    This is probably my most used club, it gets me out of a pile of trouble is extremely precise and is the only club I use for bunker shots around the greens.

    I have recorded   all distances from from around the green bunker shots at 15-20% lie and 30-40% lie etc. 

    Example 30-40% lie in bunker 3/4 power of full swing goes 31 feet on tournament greens.

    But what do I know, I'm not a legend, nor do I want to be. I just wish I could get a consistent meter speed out of these dam iz's

    Or slightly more or less depending on screen size and meter size, just sayin' for my meter and screen size.

    looks like that ball should have spun back another 10 more feet or so to me
