  Why so many Uneven lies ready go's??  Hardly any one enters them, and they take days to turn over, so basically they're a waste of space.  Yes, keep one or 2 for the MINORITY who play them,  and then swap them for a few extra $2 and $3 ready go's as there are so much 50c ones (even 18 holes..LOL)

  I like the ul rgs just the way it is, and so do more people than u think.

  ignore them if that's not ur cup of tea, no need to bash them.

  If they're so popular, why do they take so long to turn over??  I'm not saying get rid of them, maybe halve them then they WILL turn over sooner, then every one who plays them WILL BENEFIT.  Quicker turn around, quicker credit wins (or losses).

  Take one of the most popular ready go courses. St Andrews back 9 Uneven lies ready go turnes over TWICE in SEVEN days, whilst the normal ready go at St Andrews 18 holes turned over TWENTY SEVEN times in THREE days.  The most popular uneven lie ready go was Bethpage which turned over FOUR times in SEVEN days, way way less than the least poplular normal ready go.  There is no comparison really, they ARE a waste of space!  They are not generating a fraction of revenue for WGT, so why shouldn't a few of them be replaced by ready go's which are more popular and will certanly benefit the player AND WGT???

  dude im just happy I have something to play - why cant u ignore them?!

  what does it matter to anybody how long it takes to turn over anything?

  if u really want to vent ur obviously angry stuff, vent it at the guys who create the ready goes u so much want to see....

  I don't get it - u don't play the stuff yet u want them taken away? I don't go around demanding ctth and high stakes ready goes be removed because I don't play them - good on the guys who play them I say.

  not everything is about credit making.

  I think you're under the wrong impression, that UEL RGs take away spots for even lie ones. Which is not true. The amount of possible RGs isn't as limited as you may think. Cause when they change the cycle, we have double the amount (minus a few that close between 8 am and 2 pm (UK). So there are more than enough spots. WGT just decides not to open more even lies RGs, that's all.

  Yes, that only happens at the start of the month or the time WGt introduce the new ones and lasts for a day or 2.  

  But the the ARE LIMITED to whats there.  If there's say 20 ready go's on the list and 5 of those are Uneven lies which take 4 times as long to turn over than the other 15 they therefore DO take away from the more popular, quicker turn over ready go's that could have been added. But  Seing as you CAN ADD as much as you want and wgt chose not to do so as you say, Leave the Unevens there then and just add a few more variety like a few extra $2 and $3 ones, thats all im asking  Theres loads more  50c and $1 than any other ready go.  And those low credits ready go's (come on 50c for 18 holes) are there so we can't make as much credits as we used to + the price of balls so its harder and harder for players to acumulate credits.
