  List THEM:

  Distance readings way off

  Winds way off

  Putting grids way off

  Hitting water on the grass areas

  Ball bouncing off something invisible

  Weird bounces

  Connection Problems

  LET"S SPEAK OUT so maybe WGT will come out of their huge bank VAULT and fix some of the bad programming issues.

  Many fixes are overdue. More effective will be your decision to play on or not.

  Sorry I have to get this off my chest, but I had to cheat to complete the last level Shub-Niggurath's pit, it drove me mad for days. So I went on the internet (not the web, Tim at Cern was young then) and checked out some bulletin boards for the answer. Low and behold after 6 years of trying I completed Quake.

  
  

  Oh I will probably still be playing this in 6 years’ time and still have the love hate relationship, but to be honest far more love than hate :)

  Well I will not say that there are no  problems or bugs, there are, including some of the above.

  But in real golf I have virtually all the same problems, in fact usually more so, except connection problems - and funnily I seldom have those on here either.

  Perhaps the OP really needs to learn the game a little more and most of those items will not have such an impact. I think more and more players get frustrated with their own inabilities, they assume everything is WGT's doing. Just not so, but like I said, some of the time, it is.

  Very true about regular golf, but my biggest gripe is with the putting distance grid. Just had a 1.9 ft put, didnt look at distance set, wound up being set to 60 ft. Try to remember to check each time but if the putt is that short, I really do not understand the WGT logic. Reported the problem a couple of times and was told the mouse was very sensitive. Most times it happens without even touching anything. Anyway I will probably keep playing and complaining. Kind of like my real golf game.

  My pet peeve is the putting distance grid or whatever it is called. Reported problem to WGT and was told the mouse was very sensitive and be careful. Recent round had a 1.9 ft putt, game set distance to 60 ft.  I hadn't touched anything. Try to remember to check every time, but this is part of the game that makes no sense to me.
