    Admittedly, not a big issue, nor will it make sense to everyone. However, I noticed again that new drivers were added in the pro shop. Great! However, they come in 4 different colors, are available all at the same level and same specs. Now if I would be WGT, I would spread those out over different levels and tweak them just slightly, so at level 86 you get the 283 yard model in green, at 87 the orange with 284, (and yes, I understand that in reality an additional yard makes absolutely zero difference)… This way players would actually have an idea of what specs of club an opponent plays (without obviously being able to check that in their profile anyway). I just feel it’s a missed opportunity to differentiate and even maximize revenues. Too much of the equipment comes in different specs but looks identical instead of spreading the variations out over different levels and being able to add more clubs. Some of the drivers for example in the pro-shop have been there for at least a year, so why not exchange them with a newly available one in a different colour? … just a thought

    I kind of agree with you. But what I would like the most, is to not have to wait MORE THAN A YEAR to upgrade my driver. I am level 95 now, and there is a gap from Level 91 and 96 to upgrade. I mean. The Big Bertha has been on shop for a lot of time. Why can't WGT just lower some Driver's level, so we don't have to wait that much??

    Well obviously they won't lower the levels as it defeats their business model of having to play many, many, many rounds to reach a certain level and therefore unlock a better piece of equipment. they could however breach the gap with more drivers with slight performance increments in between L91-96 for example. I am level 95 as well and feel like I have been for the main part of my adult life :-) ... will hit 96 by next week I believe but I certainly would have spent some credits in between the last few levels if something new and interesting would have been on offer ...
