Hiya...

Yes i had same problems after i installed win7.
Now my swing is fast.......or very fast. It used to be Normal on my old system.
When you have fast or very fast swing, the distances will be shorter.

Thanks for the quick reply so it is a common issue?
Looks like a reinstall of vista is my only option

why not just try changing your swing mechanics ?

using a mouse pad? try using a piece of rough paper, file folder, something that will slow the pull/push movement just a tad

slow the back/forward motion down, take a shorter pull/push distance

or try adjusting your basic mouse settings, move the speed setting back a notch

there are a lot of things worth trying - much more worthwhile than swapping out W7 for Vista :)

Yes i did what JBCalg suggested.
I do my backswing.......i wait 2 seconds...and do my forward swing.
Needs some practice, but now i have normal or slightly fast swing.

Use a different shaft. I push and pull my mouse pretty fast so I use a very stiff shaft. The slower you swing, the less stiffness shaft you will need. Change them, try it and keep changing until you get one that works for you.
