  Dude... I know exactly what you are saying.. I have dinged perfect shots where I was yelling "get in the hole", and they came off as a dead shank ..20 yds right and 10 yds short of the hole...it's frustrating..

  On the other hand, I have also hit some pretty damn bad shots that ended up stiff to the flag..

  You gotta take the good with the bad I suppose..

  Regarding losing a ball on one of those VEM shots, it really sucks.. I'm on a fixed income and I can't really afford to buy balls, but I do it anyway cause I love this game.. I'd prefer to lose money and balls on my own accord (and I'm quite good at that), not because of a program script designed to level the playing field..

  Chris, taking nothing away with your game play, but you are (imo) beginning to sound/act a little juvenile...big time. You have progressed rapidly through this game, recording impressive scores, earning alot of credits and now that you've reached the top tier, the impressive scores and credits are not quite so easy to come by.

  So now most of your posts are bi<>ching or negative comments that it's something or someone's fault other than your inability to adjust to the most challenging this game has to offer. 

  Come on bro', suck it up. We all get frustrated w/this game at times. Heck I quit and swear off this game at least twice a day...........every day for the last 9-months!  

  Its nothing to do with not posting good scores because i love the legend stroke play tees, and wouldn't change them for a tour master tee, i was playing CTTH anyway, just to try out the spin balls on wolf creek, nothing to do with NOT getting a good score, that didn't bother me one bit, but what DID bother me if you read the majority of posts, is the fact a dinged shot with 3 mph left to right wind on the 9th of wolf creek, went so far left straight into the water it was unreal. That's what i'm having a moan about.  As i said i don't mind one bit loosing a ball 'cause of my own f@k ups, but for the game itself to screw you out of a $1 ball when it was brand new aswell really sucks, thats all i'm trying to explain, nothing to do with how well my game is, or how hard you think i think it is.

  Why in the hell would anyone "try out the spin balls" on Wolf Creek, for cryin out loud! That course has more ways to lose balls than any other on WGT!  Try Oakmont next time, almost impossible to lose one there.

  Because when you know the ctth courses off by heart, you don't tend to loose balls (exept for deviation), and the spin balls are much better for holes like 5 on wolf creek, much more fun, and accurately stop where you want them to. These balls are perfect for ctth
