The cut-view to the other golfer when the actual swing occurs would be a lot more effective and timely in today's world.

We are working on something similar to this (ish) right now.

I didn't really have time to explore this statement further earlier this afternoon, but is it safe to say that this 'similar to this (ish)' view option something that would be part of live and 'ghost', turn-based play, or is it something that will be part of a new mode-of-play option?  It would streamline the gameplay and the actual game action would be more concentrated, for those who desire it.  I'm impressed to learn that HBS is already on track for something like this!

I do want to stress one other point concerning this... when I say "cut-view", I'm not speaking of a sudden cut to the other player's swing camera, I'm meaning a cut that would be like your golfer taking their (I'm trying to be gender neutral here :)) eyes off of what they're doing, and turning their head to view the opponent's shot from your golfer's perspective.  I'm just stating a preference, not an edict that says it has to be done this way  :)

It is more like options regarding how much of your friend's pre-shot you would see.  We can minimize how much pre-shot you would see of your friend's (the aiming, changing clubs, etc.) which, in turn, can reduce the time between them hitting to your seeing it by another second or two.

During this pre-shot setup exclusion time, would you be able to do anything to prepare for your next shot?

No, nothing has changed about that...we have just sped it up a bit...you kinda have to see it :)

Of course results will vary :)  but about 2-3 seconds faster.  So when I tested it across 4500 miles and through a VPN, without the new modification the time was 5-6 seconds.  with it turned on it was 2-3.

I have to double check, but it is either this update or the next...but I think it is going in to this one.
