    I also opened a support ticket with WGT on the this and referenced this forum.Don't know if that will help but why not. So funny story... Last night this happened to me: hit a decent 7 iron into a par 3. Ball rolled too far and caught a slope, finishing 39 feet from the pin. Wgt asks if I want to take a 3 putt- hell no i want a 2 Putt par Im thinking... Hit my first Putt up the hill not nearly hard enough. Ugh... 12 footer. Hit a great Putt but misses on the high side barely. "Performing autoputt" oh no! Putt gets wacked back down the hill to 20 feet. Hit my 4th Putt to 4.2 feet away (.2 outside of my new amateur gimme range) The dreaded dead right Putt occurs and I miss by one foot right. Tap in for my 6 Putt. First time for everything I suppose...

      Tekbud, sorry didn't mean to laugh, but that's really funny. I actually laughed out loud.

      I laughed as well as I wrote it. Lol. Wasn't as funny when it happened

      Ya, sorry to hear. It's frustrating I'm sure, hence why I have shelved it until these problems are fixed.

      I don't have lots of time to play at home, so when I do, I don't want to be frustrated by glitches. It's to bad that seeing how much these forums are read by everyone that they wouldn't want more testers.

      To me that's one of the most baffling factors out there, why not more testers?

    your lucky the 5th putt missed by a foot otherwise you could have had another auto-putt and be facing a 7 or 8 putt

      I literally almost typed that as well. I think I can count the number of 4 putts I've had in my 30+years of golf on one hand, so this is a first for me!

    So I just rewatched the golf simulator guys YouTube video again. Comically a few of his putts start about 10 inches right even though he appears to hit them straight.

      A few videos with what I'm experiencing in Wgt. I lined up the target using skytrak alignment first. Pretty consistently right for me. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aYfTA1I9HPU and https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=G8DIq7A7oDE
      Is this what others are seeing?

        Putting looks good in Perfect Parallels, ok its a 4 putt but the speed is not slow and the line is good.

          Response from wgt support about putting:

          It sounds like the issue may be with Skytrak since all apps are seeing a similar issue. Have you contacted their support team?

          As for your auto putt issue, it was closed because as far as the issue goes, we have all the information we need from you and the issue is now with our engineers. This does not mean the issue is solved or forgotten. Just that we are closing it since we no longer need information.

            Not sure. They also closed the putting right incident blaming skytrak for the issue... Pretty lousy support IMO.
        Working...
