  Besides these and the release of the new course, was there anything else released?

   

  Was reading over the "upcoming product releases" and a few could/should be removed from that list but still wondering about the "new equipment release" from Callaway mainly. 

  I haven't been around much lately,  in fact, I haven't even played more than a hole or two on the new course. LOL

  I didn't research exactly what we were expecting, I knew we were due Chambers, but not what else.

  Kind of disappointed there's STILL no option to play with other balls in your bag. That's just a piss take to be honest, if you are unlucky enough to lose the last of say a $7 sleeve in a creek you cant use another ball that you've PAYED for. Joke.

  But on a positive note, Chamber's Bay really is a beautiful course, WGT have outdone themselves.

  Apparently, Bracket winnings (credits) are now included in the earnings,

  but the new mod, Mr. S., still has not yet explained to me how these, "of no monetary value", are exchanged into Dollars(?).

  Buy Now, or CHOOSE ANOTHER BALL FROM YOUR BAG would have been sweeter.

  The problem is, those other balls are not in your bag.  Only the equipped balls are.

  I know many find the one ball rule annoying and I kinda see where they're coming from, especially on practice rounds.   At the end of the day it's up to the player to check they have a decent amount of balls before teeing off though.

  Kinda like making sure there are more than 2 squares left on the roll before you sit down for a nice big dump : )

  Kicked off an 18 hole round with 2 spare balls, wore the first one out, dumped the second one OOB, dumped the third in the water, and was given starter balls to finish the last 10 holes with.

  The usual "last ball of this type - buy more now" option never appeared though, and nor did the new one  :-(

  Fortunately it was not an important round, so hit WD, but would have been very peed off if it had been.

  The last ball warning has vanished.

  Presumably they do not have much to do fiddling with that, stuffing it, fiddling and.........

  Sometimes you don't have time to think about it.  Just making it to the "seat" in time is all you can focus on.  ;-)
