Accuracy
10 shots, all the same shot, aimed in roughly the same spot with... VERY different results, and you (EA) think this is "accuracy" and...

Those videos look like they're all using a Power Drive? That deliberately has higher dispersion as a trade-off for extra power. Which honestly makes sense to me, as in risking being less accurate by trying to hit a real golf shot as hard as you can?
Also your shots are all overhit, and not by the same amount. Which probably adds to the variability you're seeing.
I know you want to see zero variability but there are variables you control here that you haven't, plus there is deliberate additional variability as you know (but don't like).
Power Drive: A more powerful full swing when the golfer wants to get more distance off the tee. It comes with a slightly larger shot dispersion than the Drive as a result of the extra effort put into the swing.
It's working as advertised by EA and if you overswing... more dispersion.
Agree with everyone else
Hitting a Fast AND an overswing just causes the dispersion to be worse than normal
Just out of curiosity... has EA ever documented somewhere exactly how the swing meter works? I have never found anything, and it is hard to say it is broken if we don't know how it is supposed to work.
I have had PERFECT/PERFECT on the swing meter with what appears to be a perfect swing path and have the ball land well outside the dispersion zone.
I have had absolutely bad timed swings with a swing path resembling a reverse "Z" go dead straight.
In the end I just decided that I wasn't in control and went with it. Once in scoring range I felt EA let me drive the bus again.
I think that the timing and swing plane elements affect the size of the dispersion zone, rather than where the ball lands within the dispersion zone. Not sure I've ever seen anything definitive to confirm this though.
