Lies

Is there a way to look at ball lie in detail? I ask because sometimes I hit a shot with an uphill lie and get much, much less distance than expected. Vice versa on downhill lies, I sometimes get much, much less "help" than expected. I'm only aware of the little graphical indicator of lie in the corner of the screen. This seems woefully difficult (for me) to interpret, it seems. Just wondering if I'm missing something (other than most of my snaps! :lol: ).

Put you aim pointer say 3 or 6 feet ahead of your lie and see if it read more or less. Say if it reads +6 inches, you know you have an uphill lie. Just adjust your club setting for it.

Also, if the general slope indicator shows the ball either above or below your stance, I would also suggest putting the aim pointer about 3 feet away on the "high side" of the slope to get a sense of how much curve there will be. I just realized though as I was typing this---it's been a long time since I played Pro mode, but I think the side slope effect is much less than in Champ or Elite.
