  I could see them making money on a Ladder-Pal. The more rungs the ladder has, the pricier it is, lol.

  I've found that a lot of players seem to think they have to hit every drive at full strength. I find on Olympic it's sometimes better to ease off a bit and aim short of trouble. Especially if it still leaves you a shot to the green.

  Agreed....Especially on hole #10... that is a mighty short corner...

  'leaves' ......  intentional?

  you know, if you would have actually read my post, you would have realized that the part about the chainsaw was a device called humor.

   

  My actual request was to be able to accurately shape a shot, or at least be able to choose my position on a tee box, because in 'real golf,' as you so eloquently put it, when you are faced with a tight fairway off a tee, you strategically place your tee based off of wind conditions or how you want to shape your shot.

   

  Glad there are at least a few ppl that appreciate humor and sarcasm, and don't fly off the handle at it.

  I'd rather have the weed-whacker wedge than the chainsaw personally...

  Choice of tee placement within the box is a really good idea...and seriously, Links 2003? That does bring back memories...

  Workable alternative.. lets say you have a left to right fairway, but you aim right and hit a tree trying to get cozy wit it. Try aiming way left and hitting your meter 1" to 11/2 late  tadaaa  a nice fade or slice getting round the corner with ease.
