    I really enjoy this game and web site.  I think it would help everyone especially new people like me to have a driving range and putting green so we could practice

    You can play Practice game to practice all your shots. You are allowed 10 shots a hole, which doesn't effect your Ave. Just hit your shot, then turn around to hit back and play your shot again where you came from. Only one drive off the Tee though. 

    Same with the greens... if your 1st putt doesn't go in, putt back and try again.

    The other option, play a one hole game.. in 'Wgt Community' and click 'Golf Courses' and play any golf hole you like. This is off the Red Tees.

    Great advice and I do that quite often. Like you said we get 10 strokes per hole so we can use them any way we want. I crank the putter up to 300 feet and pick a direction. Smash it off the green and play it back to the hole for scrambling practice or out of bunkers. No need for a practice range IMO.

    P.S. I've dicovered a way to hit it off the tee again as well. You have to play backwards to the tee box any way you can. If you get the ball back on the teeing ground, a tee re-appears under it and you can tee off as normal again. It's a great way to practice distance control with the wedges on the way back to the tee box. :)
