  im pretty sure everyone would agree with me,i don't mind buying golf balls form the pro shop because there is a lot of variety and better balls out there to use .but tell me why they take our balls away after so many hits.i don't think it's fair I have not lost my ball in the hazard or out of bounds or in the water . I pay money for credits to get 3 golf balls that cost me 180 credits and I feel that I should keep them until I lose them myself. if they are going to take them away then at least give us more balls for the credits,and once again i'll say I don't mind paying for better balls just don't take them from me.thank you wgt for this game I really enjoy playing this game there is no golf game yet out for the ps4 yet so I recently found this game in 2015 and I a very impressed with it .so please take this in consideration and help us continue to love this golf game.

  Thank you for the suggestion.  Unfortunately the way the game is set up the purchased balls will have a durability factor to them.  Once it runs out the balls will be taken out of play.  Not something that will be changing anytime soon if ever.

  You think you purchase balls? Contractual reality is different, see the T&Cs:

  You pay for a licence of limited duration which is terminated by a certain no. of hits or a hit into a "termination area" (water, OOB...).

  I see the ball purchases as "game costs", an entry fee. Good thing is, I determine the price.

  If you want to lower your costs, try the Tour-SD (65 cr).

  Happy hitting!

  Which is an interesting comment. All of the clubs & balls have nomenclature values for selection preferance. The balls have life-spans from 1 to 2.5 dots with a potential up to 5.

   I realize that the benevolence gene is in rare useage at wgt while being sensitive to it's attraction to things that increase cash flow. Instead of wasting time on non-revenue items like the green-dots, focus on the ball life-span dots and charge a fee. ;-}
