  Ironically this is mostly all stuff that people who actually play golf would already know. LOL.

  Just saying.

  Read this guide a while back. Followed it to the letter. Took notes and all. Even so the short game is extremly bugged in WGT. There is definately some extremely bad coding. The short game is simply inconsistant., and it really marres this otherwise great game.

  Nice guide. One hint that helps me in chipping or pitching. I drag the pointer from the hole to were i hit from. this will show elevation difference from where you plan to hit the green and the hole. This avoids missing the 10 " drop while the pointer reads a 2 ft up elevation.

  great guide. I wish I could play ready-go's.

  Did you even read the guide?

  They both work fine when you know how to use them. If you are trying to chop from ten yards off the green then yes you are doomed....both here and IRL.

  Happy hitting

  Thanks, very useful guide. I only wish I'd read it before watching my ball travel 34' past the hole on a 22 yard, 2" up pitch that I hit around 75%!

   

  There's quite a jump from amateur to pro :/

   

  I enjoy this game, and understand that it's still beta (it will ALWAYS be beta), but I can't see myself playing it much longer with all the inconsistencies on shot physics
