    WLawson22:
    Create one coin room for all Showdown players.. make the entry level minimum coins and let all players use that one room.. all would use the same tees as in Montreal room. That way people playing Rookie or Expert could match but at least you would be playing another person playing the Showdown.

     

    Doing a Showdown in a room without a large number of outside random players would sadly be impossible. The only way to avoid it would be changing the event to single player.

    When I was growing up, I used to go bowling quite a bit. TopGolf venues reminds me of the junior bowling league I used to be in on a Saturday morning. For most of the kids, it was a reason to get out of the house and go clowning around for a couple of hours. No real interest in bowling. When I got to the TopGolf venue, the first impressions I got were flashbacks to those bowling alley days and I agree Simon that it was not a good one. 

    Kids are kids, so you can cut them some slack. The ones I'm talking about, however, are full-grown adults acting like complete idiots! I love having a good time too, but a driving range is not the place for acting like you're in a club or a bar.

    I understand the marketing side of things. Got to make money to keep the business afloat.

    It's very simple. Restaurants should focus on serving clean, delicious food, and game companies should focus on providing fun, stable games. If you nail those basics, customers will follow.

    Nothing's more laughable than a company that can't deliver on the product but obsesses over marketing. Just look at those thriving mom-and-pop restaurants. They let their food speak for itself!

    Hopefully we'll see some real improvements in what I think we're all interested in. I want to enjoy good golfing gameplay. The more real it feels minus the glitches, the better.

    Can't agree more. Well said! 👍 Cheers.

    Actually it may have been as high as 12

    2 full  18 stroke play courses Cabo and whistler. their CCTH courses. = 4

    The original 3 best of courses=7

    Hilversumsche Golf Club - Group 1
    Hilversumsche Golf Club - Group 2  =8 

    Bali Hai

    Best of Famous Shots
    Best of Putting Shots
    Best of Water Shots

    Yes, it's all coming back to me now. I miss all of them. Cabo was a beautiful course, and so was Whistler. They would cost 40 credits to play each course.

    How are you? Are you still streaking? I passed 4,700 a week or so back. You?

    I see WGT will have a new course soon. Quail Hallow I hear. Do we thank the new crew, or TopGolf ?
