  I've played three times. I like the layout but it doesn't seem as though the speed of the break matches the putt. I've missed no less than 4 putts of 5 feet or less because the line either showed a break and the ball didn't move or the line didn't show a break and the ball went wide. I'll probably play the Back 9 once just to say I have but that's it for me after that.

  Surely you can agree that each course has his/her own curiosities with putting. Same goes for oak, sta, kiawah, or bp..

  as much as i don't like cabo del bundo.....you may need to play it a lot more to get to know the greens and their false reads.....it's wgt's way of getting you to get to know a course....just as you have to do with real golf.

  The greens on the other courses are based on reality. The Cabo ones are created using the course as it is in one of the Links games....hence they are highly simplified and some seem to have odd changes in slope that make them hard to read.

  I'm very disappointed with the course - it doesn't look good, is very simplified from the real thing and we have to pay to use it!!! Normally the opposite of those three is true, which is the attraction of WGT.

  not enough to spend a $1.00 on a course that is of a lesser quality than the HD courses. Come on Icon!

  Is it $1 every time you play like a true green fee or does $1 unlock the course to the person paying?  I suspect the former and if that's the case this may lose its lustre.
