I think your disappointment stems from the part of your statement where you say you've "been playing for about two weeks." The starter clubs will NOT allow you to shape shots. They are to get you acquainted with the game and give you the best chance at learning the meter system without the distraction of draw and slice. As you level up and purchase new clubs, you will see that some clubs give you shot shaping options that are superior to others. You can DEFINITELY shape shots in WGT. You may not be able to fire a snap hook or banana slice, but you can draw and fade to some degree (depending on the club and wind conditions).
I will often draw or fade a shot into the wind to help hold it's line, or as some others have indicated used shot shaping with the wind to bend around a corner or other obstacle in my way. Using backspin on your drive will hold the ball in the air longer and allow your shot shaping to have greater effect. Putting topspin on the ball minimizes the effect of shaping or wind.
Hope that helps.
