    Ok. I checked the 'Already done' list, and did a search. Found a couple that were close but not quite. 

    Dunno about anyone else, but the flagstick effect is making me nuts. There are tons of replays showing the unrealistic effects, so, how about reducing the solidity of the silly things. Since most are fiberglass, the higher from the ground you hit them, the less bounce away, as the flexibility eats more of the inertia.

    Heh. On a related note, how about hitting the FLAG. I once saw a guy skull one from the rough around the green. It hit the flag and dropped to 7 inches. All hail the golf gods.

    I agree with you.  But, in the golf gods' defense, I've seen some wicked real life stick shots.  Personally, I hit one once from 180 out, for a truck, and it didn't even stay on the green.  Heck, our scramble didn't even make par....lol.

    But, yes, these at WGT need some work.
