  Reached Master Tier about 2-3 mos ago. Tour Pro avg was 65. I understand my avg is reset but my god I havent shot but maybe two stroke games under par. i played 18 oles on Kawai to shoot 6 under on front 9 to only have every hot go everywhere but the correct spot on the back nine finishng 18 holes 2 under. What gives? It cant always be me if Im dinging the meter. Just a frustration, looking for answers or help.

  You only have a few ranked rounds...you must be playing in Practice mode..only ranked rounds will affect your average...better irons would help as well, you'll need them soon anyways.

  With the driver you've got, you shouldn't need that hybrid (unless you use it for blitz). Get rid and a 3rd wedge would help.

  Mike, the two previous gave good advice. New irons (lvl 79 rockebladez) will help a lot. Also dump the hybrid and get three upper lvl wedges. Have fun.

  Thank you all for the advice. Thought buying balls would help out. Spending all my credits there. Finding credits hard to come by without dumping more real money. Thanks again!

  I suspect Mike has met one of WGT's ''Tis the season' benefactors! 

  Dish, Mike! Details, please - got some new tools?

  A decision to be made...

  Can I afford or am I willing to pay <amount> for the game.

  What for?

  Is it nice enough to invest into pleasure, like most ppl do (cars, booze, children, betting...)

  Or is it turning away when the first amazement settles?

  Who knows but you?

   

  What I want to say: Cheaper balls will do, too. Start from the top of the list, 10 crs per sleeve.

  Yes was gifted some new tools. Most generous gesture Ive ever seen or heard of on here. Many thanks to that person. LOL believe it or not on my very first shot with a 7 iron on Kawaii...Hole in one to win alt shot challenge!
