    The greens in the Bethpage Back 9 Ready-Go are faster than Standard, but slightly slower than what you've come to expect when the greens are said to be Fast.

     

    Does that apply to the back nine of the 18-hole Bethpage RG as well?

    If greens can be set to a speed that is different from what's stated or expected , well that's one more added frustration that isn't needed for my game.

    Im all for more settings, but as a player, especially when playing for money/credits, I feel entitiled to an accurate description of the game.

    Why not, instead of just "slow, standard, fast", use a stimpmeter rating to let us know what speed we can expect? It's a standard for tournament golf anyway, and you can give us a much greater variety of choices... with better accuracy.

    one complaint that i have are the putts that come up 2-5 inches short, when a short distance from the hole they are traveling at a good speed, immediately in front of the hole the ball suddenly acts like it hit honey on the green and comes to an abrupt halt.  when the putt is a little off line, right or left the will then run out like i would expect, seems only putts on line and going in that stop so quickly.

    No, it applies only to the Ready Go tournaments on Bethpage Back 9, not to the back 9 of the 18-hole Bethpage Ready Go.
