    Just a thought but how about making the carry distance to the fairways from the tee, especially on qualifiers, reachable regardless of the driver/ball that you have?  It is so frustrating when you know that given even a slight headwind your longest driver and best hit club is still going to end up in the cabbage and gives those with the credits to purchase a longer driver a ridiculous advantage.

    Sorry to say, York, this would not put you to the lead.

    OTOH, it is clear that, in this universe created by WGT, length and spin (just to name two) cannot be acquired by talent or training - they must be purchased.

    It's like in real golf: What the top pros do

    - is named like our game: "golf",

    - looks (with minor differences) like the golf we play,

    - is played on courses accessible to us (most of the time),

    - abides to the same rules,

    Still, it's a different game, shooting below par where scratch amateurs get 5 or 8 strokes.

     

    Same here...

    Watch a few videos and do a couple of surveys and you'll earn one yourself.

    Try to level up to pro and go for the WGT Pro Driver, just 250c and 245 yards. That baby took me to master and I bought it watching adds (:
