  it would be nice to see a putt start on the line that you designate and some consistency in the pitching and chipping...you can literally aim and then stroke the putt perfectly at the left edge but when contact is made it's already pushed "6 inches" to the right....furthermore, there isn't a shot for 10 yard, downhill pitch or chip...it's a joke, a 9 iron runs 20 yards through a green however a downhill 5 yard pitch check and stops on a cliff...

  and how does a ball plug in a bunker when it rolled in?  i'm a one hcp in real life and have never had that happen or seen that happen...and where is it written that all balls played out of heavy rough cannot advance more than 50 yards?

  i'm done, stupid game even if it's free...

  Millions of people play this game, some can score in the low 50's. It's the same game for everybody, the only difference is your ability and your equipment.

  The game plays more how you are expecting

  after you have upgraded your wedges and putter.

  I agree with teg120! I know it varies for all players but as far as consistency with breaks and the darn flag in the cup. Why is the flag in the cup when your on the green with a putt less than 15 ft? Also, when teeing off, it would be nice to see it start off straight before it desides to break in a 13mph wind right off the tee. This has happenned several times even when I have hit the "ding". Very frustrating.

  hi

  those parts of the game are some of the more consistent... please read the pitching guide in the game tips forum, it should help you and everyone else.

  Of course the players attitude is also a factor.
