    Sorry if this seems dumb, but I'm still unsure about 'meter speed' ratings when I'm checking out equipment in the Pro Shop.  Does a meter with speed 2 move faster or slower than a meter with speed 4? Many thanks.

    The lower the number is, the faster the meter runs.

    FAST <<<   1   2   3   4   5   >>> SLOW

    And this question is coming from someone who's been here for 15 years, hmmmm... Well, what the heck!

    Thank you for the reply, for which I am very grateful, though a short answer would have sufficed, without the additional aside! Anyhoo, when you get to my age, you're allowed to ask an occasional witless question . . . . Incidentally, call me old-fashioned, but logically speaking, a low number infers a slow speed, shirley? Conversely, faster speed is generally indicated by use of a higher number, as with a speedometer! Wottevah, give me another 15 years or so and I should get the hang of it. :-)  P.s. Maybe you & I could play a head-to-head sometime?

    I'm sorry you didn't like my comment at the end. But wouldn't anyone find it strange? How could someone who's been playing for 15 years not know that? And I was not saying your question was dumb, I was just surprised that after 15 years, you still didn't know, that's all.

    Yes, I'd be more than happy to. Cheers.

    And the sarcasm continues.
