    I would like to see a power boost option on here...we all have had those moments where we crank that drive trying to get home in 2 on a long par 5 but we slice it into the woods...we need to be able to get an additional shot called "power shot" where it adds 10% of the yardage but doubles a miss...would be an exciting feature that would change the game off the tee...what Im seeing now is in a match both players are hitting in the same general area having the same approach shot...that's boring...why not make it like real life where you can outdrive someone to get the advantage on a par 5 1 down?

    Or that person going for the advantage could miss it and hit in the deep rough and lose the hole...

    An example is 16 at Kiawah island...late in the round, it is a key hole, and getting home in 2 could be a big advantage since it is 600 yds and not normally reachable! Player 1 hits his drive 300 yds in the fairway. Player 2 uses power boost to jolt it 30 yards in front. now they have 2nd shots of 305 and 270 yds. Player 1 successfully lays up his second to 60 yards and makes birdie. Player 2 uses his power boost on his 3 wood to get 265 in the air and sticks it to 10 feet...He almost leaves the putt short, but ends up just making it...a dramatic eagle to square the match!

    The other way is could happen is Player 2 snaphooks it into the weeds on the left, and is forced to pitch out, making par and going dormie 2 down...

    Exciting, isn't it?

    I like it ... I have mentioned this to other players before as an item on my wish list.  It would certainly add something to match play.
