    MainzMan:

    ISH47:

    All of the major tourneys AND qualifiers should be single play. These guys are good enough to post a dominant score in one try if they don't choke.. and if they do.. that's golf.

    I agree but WGT sell loads of balls through the unlimited qualifying.  I would like to see qualifying limited to 10 starts or something but maybe that's just because I hate unlimited, I really can't be bothered to keep restarting.

    Yea, restarting just makes me play with less effort it seems.  

    I think if it will be unlimited, then it should be retry at the end, not restart at any time.   Post a score then try again.  It may even help some people more than they think.  I've tried many times, only to restart, then post a 27 or 28 on the front 9 only to blow up the back 9 LOL.  If I were forced to play out the entire round before "retrying" I would learn the back 9 enough to maybe not blow it up like I kept doing. 

     

    Post a score then try again or WD.  However, I'm sure not many would like it that way, it's just my opinion and we all know what they say about those.  ;-)

    Or WGT could set it up with a choice of front or back first, like Thurdays and Friday of the tournament week.

    That is an excellent idea. :)

    Some people are just that good. This is a tournament for the very best players so lesser players like you and me stand no chance. That's the way it should be.

    +1 Finger tip golf is for the young, super quick reaction warriors, of which I am not!  Thx WGT for Max balls which keep me interested:)....I do wish this game was around back in the 50's when I was the local pin ball wizard:)...

    Maybe with Nintendo and the like but this game requires a bit more mental dexterity. Take a look at the age of the Open winners past.  :-)
