  I watch videos to get from 500-1000 credits a day. Pretty easy to do by pushing the button on your free time. I buy credits to $20 a month. The surveys are a joke- don't waste your time on them. 

   

  I agree on watching the videos. But I don't get near that many credits in a day. If I can about 100-150 credits per day from videos, I'm doing good. I think the most I ever got in one day was about 350 credits. Of course, this option isn't available for everyone. 

  But I disagree on the surveys. While it can be feast or famine with the surveys, I average at least one completed survey a day. And there have been times that I've got as much as 800 credits in a day from the surveys. 
  
  By the way, if you're getting that many credits in a day from videos, why is there any need to purchase credits at all?

  Balls cost $250 for the ones I use and upgrading clubs.

  I think you mean $2.50 because those Callaways are only 250 credits. In your other post, did you maybe mean that you're earning about 50 to 100 credits per day rather than 500 to 1,000? 
  
  I guess it really doesn't matter, but the math just doesn't add up. There's no way in the world that buying the Callaways you're using and any club upgrades would burn through that many credits (if you're really earning 500 to 1,000 per day).

  Yes the balls cost  250 credits. On the weekends I make 1000 credits a day. During the week I make about 500 a day. Half of what I make goes for balls, tournements, and clubs count for the rest with the occasional gift to another player. I also have a large amount of credits ready for new wedges and a driver in the next couple levels I get to. That will account for about 6,000 of them. Pretty easy to get that many credits a day......

  Oh, I don't doubt that it's easy to build up credits. I know that. That's why I wondered why you would need to purchase any. I play a more expensive ball and bought a new driver, 3 wood, and irons earlier this year. Since March, I've probably spent about 30,000 credits. But I can't remember the last time I purchased credits.

  I've played against loads of masters, tourmasters etc who are still using the basic clubs.

  IMHO it's well worth while saving up for the M1 Taylor made driver.

  Superb club and IMHO the only one you will need all the way through to Legend level
