  Hi there!  I have a huge problem that I'm hoping someone can help me with.  Ever since I got to level 52, the game has become an absolute bear! I haven't broken par in over 2 months!  It's like the game is inventing ways to screw me!   Here is an example of what is going on.  I had a 46 feet putt that was 11 inches up.  I put the scle on 100 ft and went just over half way.  The put went 71 feet!  There are countless other examples, but that one sums it up.  I'm about ready to quit playing because this isn't any fun nymore. Help  -Gmanwi

  Its called V.E.M. or wgt game control , they decide when they want you to move up a tier  or to improve on your score. At the end of the day they want your pocket money in exchange for better clubs.

  Have you noticed that as you progress up the tiers the greens get faster? i.e when you first started as an hack the greens were slow.This keeps increasing until tour legend(championship greens which are the fastest). You have to keep hitting the putts softer as you go up the tiers.. See all the putting guides that are posted on the forums.

  Read the forums there's loads of tips on putting and how to adjust speed etc. Personally i for example on you putt of 46ft with 11" up on a tourney green, add them together giving you 57, then minus 30% = 39.9" 20% less for VF grns, 10% for fast, 0% for standard and add 10% for slow. Thats how some people cope, there are others that divide the figures, look on the forum, you'll find all you need.
