     I don't know if anybody else has had different results but I've never been able to get the ball to actually roll backwards.

    There are a couple of 'backstop' holes where the ball'd land on an upslope past the hole.  I'd like to be able to put enough backspin on the ball to have it roll back toward the hole.

    Is that in the works?

     I would assume the clubs we are using do not have enough 'bite' for any substantial spin... (enough to generate reverse motion).  I have seen on occasion a ball actually back up a bit, but that was hitting a steep uphill slope on a green, and even then it only went back a few inches.

    edit: stay tuned for the better clubs ;-)

    ya, these clubs dont have it. newer ones will for sure.

    i, however, can get up to 2 yards of backspin on holes 1/2 when i am inside 60 yards. i once even back spinned and hit pin lol
