  Please speed up your gameplay!

  Some players Ive been in stroke and alt rounds with this weekend are taking an entire 60 and 90 timer to hit the shot!

  You should need no more than 35 seconds to check camera angles, wind, aim and shoot. I understand the occasional distraction but some of these people are taking forever on every shot. The best one was a guy with a 4 foot putt. Took 59 seconds to knock it 10 feet past the hole. These arent Hacks either. TP's who should have a good handle on what shot to hit.

  I know this is ranting but it will make for a more enjoyable experience for all parties involved. Thanks to all the cool players I played with today. Had some great fun on CCC!

  Hi

  I believe you can set the timer to 30 or 45 seconds as well. This should fix the problems?

  It would be nice if the games defaulted to 60 seconds as I don't think many game starters alter the timing.

  30 secs thats just like a crap shoot. Don't aim ,don't pick a club ,dont bother swinging.

  I have noticed that sometimes people are multi tasking.  There was one person who was gamb***g (horrors!) on-line while also playing in a match.  Personally, I like to listen to music (Radio Paradise) while playing.  This allows me to while away the time while waiting for someone to hit their shot.

  Dont forget with a 30 sec timer and the Meter issues  we have,at times its took me 4 times with the meter   being fooked up as always  30 secs or more take me shot.

  Plus when ure timer runs out it carrys on again so whats the worth of haveing  a  timer in the 1st  place? that baffles me.

  I get a lot of work done while playing. I specifically play A/S games or 4somes as it allows me to get alot of work done. I also get to listen music and watch golf feeds or whatever else.

  To each his/her own. 90 seconds maybe long but most players don't take that long. There are options to set it for faster, so utilize them:)
