I must be missing something with the Kinect that others aren't, because it's annoying the hell out of me. I hate that for moving the aim shot you have to put your hands together to do it but I get why they did that. However I found that with my arms just hanging down on the side, after I call for an Aim shot, that sometimes the screen starts to move down instead of staying where the ball is suppose to land. Like I did aim shot for a putt and the screen moved all the way back to my golfer and I didn't put my hands together or anything.

Also anytime a menu comes up, since my hands are down, the screen menu starts moving like if I was holding the joystick down on the controller. Am I missing something? I got just way to frustrated by the 3rd hole. I was looking forward to getting this game. This was going to be my Kinect game of choice, but now idk. Can someone help me to maybe better handle how it goes? Kinect works great with the simplest of games, so maybe I'm just doing something wrong here.

Re-calibrate your Kinect. And you don't bring your hands together to aim, you do that to go to the swing. I'll agree it is a touch on the sensitive side though, especially in menus. I use the voice commands as much as possible while in game. See if re-calibrating and the voice commands help you any because I am finding the experience to be pretty good, but certainly not perfect.

Duh! (slap myself) It's close fist not hold your hands together! LOL, thanks man for pointing that out. When I read what you wrote I went back to the game and realized it said that, and not both hands together.

Now I figured out why it was going all over the place is because I had a fist closed when I was playing and junk and it was moving the aim shot and menus like crazy.
