  Stop letting the TP hit from the women tee's. Why are the Master Tier penalized 30-50 yds. on drives against TP"s when they can get the same clubs as Masters. Make the yardage the same for both tiers, or stop letting the Pro's & TP"s buying the same equipment as Masters. Make them jump up to the Master Tier if they what the 282yd drivers and 240yd 3-woods, 215-225 irons.

  Sorry to say, but this kind of demand won't be fulfilled on the umpteenth posting.

  Take it!

  It wakes sweet memories from TP times when I beat some unsuspecting Masters, using a Rapture 3WD (*sighs*) instead of driver ;)

  To be honest, there also appeared one or two Masters with Starter equipment who showed me their skills - no chance for me!

  It is true. I used to play quite a bit against WGT player , John Hancock of UK, really a peach of a gent and frugal by admission. He still was using the free clubs & balls as a Master while I had "jellied up" with Raptures and decent balls. We were both pretty good but Big John pip'd me a few times and I think our MP record has him up a couple of games on me....we both had fun.  ~ SP ~

  Something tells me that you have no qualms about milking the tee differences when playing legends.

  There has to be a balance here people!!!  Just like in life not everything is perfect and the simple fact is this - the more you advance in tiers, the longer it is to get to the green and once there, yep you got it the faster and more squirrel the greens will be.

  As for the yardage difference, well!  More levels and experience does and should unlock longer and better equipment to a player, as he or she progresses up the ever increasingly difficult curve to the higher levels!

  While I'm now at the Tour Legend Level, I too went through this same process you all seem to be so set against, but perhaps in time you will come to see and maybe even agree with the reasons behind this and it's not WGT being money hungry!!!  They have always been more then fair with me in the past if I've had a problem, so play the game and have fun!  After-all, isn't that what it's all about???

  P.S., as for the women's Tee's there is not such thing here, well all play off the same tee's dependent on our Tier ill-respective of sex!!!

  What are you crying about? After looking at your MP wins, I'd say you do okay against TP's   (you do have a 2 - 1 record, afterall)  LOL
