  hi WGT,

  would it be possible that you can setup during the game that we can change the golf balls,

  I think that i'm not the only one that would be like to see thats being done,

  and i'm not the only player what used the WGT high performens balls then just the

  regular golf balls in his golfbag

  This has already been discussed many times.  The reason is simple its the rules of golf.  You must start and finish a round with the same type of ball.  Now, you may ask, then why do I get the starter.  It is deemed not to be beneficial so WGT the governing body allows it.  The other option would be  DQ.

  Cheers,

  I went to play my ready go 100 credit game and had not changed my balls from starters... I have not hit a shot.. is there no way I can change my balls to the nikes I already own?

  The short answer is no!!..easy mistake to make but if you play for credits..Check clubs/balls & time before you start..Andy
