  Well I did a quick look - Since the 11th Feb you have bought 3 sleeves and played 13 x 9 hole RR and 6 x 18 hole RR and 16 x CTTH games = at least 950 "hits" (I did not count but took a rough average over those scores)

  The ball gets about 120 hits before being worn out so the games played equates to roughly 8 balls used. Now I don't know how many were in your bag at the start or how many you have left, but to me appears to be normal wear and tear (and thats also the assumption you did not lose any).

  I cannot imagine WGT is giving you their weekly special buy 3 balls and get 2 but you could email them with your concern and give them the reasons why you think you are being shorted. To my eye, it appears to be normal usage.

  The only thing I can think of you used up a ball when playing so when you come back there are only 2 left - easy to miss if you are not paying attention.

  I have hit balls onto fairways at St Andys to give me an OB too - but whilst it showed on the screen as a fairway - it is actually a different holes fairway so learn't very quickly which holes I could do this on.

  The only thing I can agree with is yes, the balls are expensive. If you think it is a bug right click on the screen and submit it. If you really think WGT are stealing your balls (which I would be amazed) email them with details and screen shots( PREFERABLY SHOWING THEIR HAND DIPPING INTO YOUR BAG) to members@worldgolftour.com
