I am a PC Mouse /KB player and I have been having trouble figuring out why I would get very slow tempo shots (mostly pitches but some full shots as well) when it seemed my actual tempo didn't change. I would get them, as well as very fasts, when I could tell I had screwed up, but these were different. After playing around on the range, I discovered that releasing the mouse button before you finished your downswing was the cause! It certainly is not intentional when I do it, but it does happen. In fact, if you release the button early you will get a very slow 100% of the time on pitches or full shots, at least over a small number of trials on the range.

Yep, that would definitely do it. Been there, done that. Sometimes intentionally. May I suggest finger strengthening exercises for premature mouse release?  |

My very slows came from a slow mouse movement at the beginning of the downswing. My impression is that the first few milliseconds of the downswing matter a lot. For instance, before I bought a mousepad, many of my very fasts were due to the stick slip effect.
Cheers,
Kevin

Mouse has the advantage of fine tuning mouse sensitivity. With all shots outside of putting use the same exact mouse and range of motion, however, simply adjust your Y axis for specialty shots. I use 900 X Axis for everything, however, full shots have Y set to 2800 (Red Fast), chips at 2000, etc. If you wanted to hit a Red Slow you could just use the same exact hand/arm motion but set your Y Axis sensitivity to say, 1000 Dpi.
PCs really have the advantage in putting imo, and a rather large advantage. You can set your Y Dpi to like 3800-4500 and slowly, Slowly, SLOWLY (very slow!) take away the putter to get ridiculous precision on distance control, then, the extremely high Dpi ensures your putter will actually follow through and strike the ball. If you try to take such a slow putting stroke w/out high Dpi your player wont complete the forward putt stroke.
Anyways, yeah, PC and mouse sensitivity is very strong imo. Virtually every modern mouse made typically allows you at least 5 on the fly Dpi settings so it only takes 1 or 2s to toggle between the speed you want.

Do you use the vslow more often or instead of the intentional fade? I rarely hit intentional slow and normally only around the greens as a way to reduce carry distance since I find partial shots very hard to do anything other than fast. That being said, I've been developing the partial shot to some extent - I can get it to roll out more when I don't want something that's going to stop on a dime. I do regularly hit red slow or red fast tee or approach shots. I use my tempo to control shot shape far more than the shot shaper - I pretty much only use the shaper for spin and trajectory. |

Can I ask how you are setting X and Y axis DPI independently? Thanks! |

You go to the mouse software. This feature's been around for a long time with any modern mouse.
