I know this really belongs in the games section but I posted it there and got no replies. In the Tiger Woods 2003 game demo it seems to be random whether putting works properly or not. One time I'll putt and the ball goes 6 inches, the next putt, same swing, and it works perfectly. All swings other than putting work perfectly. Anyone else have this problem?

My setup:

iBook, 700mhz, OSX 10.2.6
384mb RAM

I think I solved the problem. I tried a different mouse and putting is fine. The first mouse was working through a USB hub. I don't know if that matters. The second mouse which works is not optical. Question, however, is still why the mouse would only screw up putting and not other shots?!?

For some reason when running the game on an iBook, it defaults to the "Phil Mickelson" putting stroke. You'll have to change your prefs.
