  Also, big wowser on the 30 second timer. Be warned if you try it. A normal zoom, adjust, return, meter skip pass and you're timed out. Not fun unless everything's perfect.

  Yeah, 45 and 60 seconds need to be added. I thought WGT said they were listening? Read the first line here.

  I am in agreement with those don't find the 30 second timer useful.

  ditto I'm one of the fastest players around and some putts take 30 seconds just to get the green movements to work in front and reverse views. 45 should replace 30 right away. JB

  Love the 30 second timer!  Have to admit it might be hard for people with less than 1000 ranked rounds but I've done it twice and never come close to timing out.  Usually even have time for a quick chat before I hit!

  Unfortunately not all of us are as good as you are Jake lol

  I would have big problems with the 30 sec timer. I'll play within the current allocated time, but 30 secs - WOW.   Hmmm - maybe I spend to much time chatting lol.

  Plenty of practice rounds, but only  250ish ranked rounds.

  Cheers

  Jake must be a golf god, I have close to 3000 rounds, and I still play slow.  People will always play at their own pace.  As for me, I definitely won't break any speed records.

  Have Fun, relax, and play well.

  I'm with you Infinito - I just play at my own pace. Thats me, and thats what I enjoy.

  What is it  with playing fast anyway ?? Whats the rush ?? You dont rush in the real thing.. so... 

  Maybe there could be a tournament with a 30sec timer - now that would be interesting, but I'm afraid you wont get me in it.

  Hit-em straight.

  This coming from the guy that speaks loudest and longest about the meter skips? I'm beginning to think your incidents are no worse than mine. I have club in hand and know what I'm going to do before it's my turn and still have to hustle to beat that timer. :-)
