As in many other topics have been discussed, the colors and opacity of the swing meter can be changed. While it can be helpful, it still is problematic because while some colors work when hitting from bunkers, they might not be perfect when having water in a background etc.

So what I think this game needs is a solid-colored frame for the swing meter that most other three-clickers like Links 2003 has. It wouldn't need to be very thick, just enough to give some contrast. Also giving the user ability to change the color of the frame and the possibility to enable/disable it to suit everybody's taste would be ace.

Would be and idea, especially if being able to move the meter is a no go.

You can move the meter indirectly already by simply using the free cam to set a new swing position before taking your shot.

I know I'm in the minority being left handed, but as I'm colour blind, an only child, short, fat and well quite a few other things, could we please have the facility to move the meter? I realise that when I hear that Swooosh of a Power Stroke I am dreaming but I can't use any of the motion swings with the meter in the bottom right corner. I need it, like in Links, to be above my left hand. Making it solid would be less attractive aesthetically but it really is a problem under many conditions being see through.

Ian, sorry but the game is limited to assisting with 3 handicaps only. It's dealt with 'only child, 'short' and 'fat'. All of rest you're just going to have to live with. Really, for $20, EA or $35 Retail, there is only so much that can be addressed and yet be profitable. :P
