No it is not from a reverse angle. Although I agree, that would be a cool throwback to the old Sega and SNES PGA TOUR games. I will keep that in mind for the future. Maybe call it "Reverse Pro" or something.

I don't really know if I am OK to tlak about this so I am going to refrain from answering. I will say that there is presentation that happens between holes, not just a black screen.

Wanted to know if the backswing meter (green spot) can be toggled off in a custom setting.

Are there any pre-shot camera settings that can be customised or do we toggle through the presets much like previous versions of the game.

No, the backswing meter cannot be toggled off. It was a fairly late addition and we didn't have time to add a setting for it. It is definitely something I want to address in the future, perhaps in an early patch.

There are Address Camera options in Presentation Settings. The 4 options are: Low, Default, High and Top. When you set your address camera, you will always load into a new shot with that camera. You can then toggle to the other cameras at address using RB/R1.

Thanks for answering... and please do keep it in mind for the future. If you get a chance to check out Perfect Golf on the PC, they have a reverse-angle camera that's pretty close to what I'm thinking about, although I think it cuts to the reverse-angle camera about 20% sooner into the flight than I wish it would. It also tends to lose the ball due to being obscured by bunker mounds and greenside objects, on occasion. In other cases, it miscalculates the ball's final resting place and has to pan 180 degrees and follow it to its finish further downstream.

Thanks for the info.......that toggle for the backswing meter would be a good option to have,I guess if you can make a change post release defaulting to 'off' in 'Tour' mode may be welcome.

You answered the question satisfactorily. Thanks.
