While editing a round earlier today I noticed that when moving the pin position it now picks up putting distances under 3 feet. Seem to recall previous rounds only gave readings of 1 yard as the closest/shortest. Nice to see the service constantly being enhanced. Maybe some putting stats will be on the cards for future improvements.

Surely that's the whole point of the edit function, civilian gps are only at the most 95% accurate to 3 metres.
Do you not check every round before uploading?

I was so far on the fairway I didn't even consider it to be that far out! I'ts missed by around 15 yards!
So if it's that far out, it's a bit of a pointless system I'm thinking if I have to edit every shot on every hole. I have to remember from where I hit every ball or the yardages will also be out.
To add to this the graphic clearly shows the next shot taken from the fairway. Losing faith in the system I'm afraid.

GPS can be affected by allsorts, sometimes it will be 100% correct, I review every shot and at the end I'm very happy I'm there or there about,
At my level I'm probably happy if I'm within 1-5 yards for most shots.
 
I can understand your frustration, if you have a bad hole it's bad enough trying to remember to tag or think you've tagged and then later on finding fantom swings, then fairways you've hit not showing or greens not hit showing as hit.

I don't know which mapping site they use, but it's old, not so much as the course has changed but we have houses that surround the first 4 holes but on the map system it's showing as empty land or part built houses. Think it could do with updating.
 
Have got this for Christmas, my user ID is louise1a

Its a pain setting up my bag, every time I put in a club it doesn't go back to the golf bag screen.
 
Got one for Christmas too.

User ID - GG26, name Mike Davey

Had the same problem setting up the bag, just had to keep exiting to the home page on entering the club and going back in and got it set up ok.

Hopefully, I'll give it an outing later in the week.

The next shot shows the graphic taken from the fairway? What do you mean? Could be a geo fencing issue. You should email and ask
 
Anyone having trouble getting your signed rounds into your eligible challenges? emailed game golf last week about it and got a reply saying it was a glitch in the system that they are working on.

Last couple weeks after signing for round my scores didn't appear in challenges, they are there today, hadn't got round to contacting them.
