  Does anyone know what the good word is on the next free club rental weekend?  I missed the last one because there was no notices, and I don't want to miss out on the next one.

  My guess would be 4th of July weekend.  If they even have another free rental weekend.

  I really hope they do.  The last one convinced me to buy the G-20 (L-83) driver and 3 wood, plus the G-20 irons.

  So there, WGT.  Your strategy of increasing sales at least worked on me.... and while I'm at it... your club rental fees are just too damn expensive.  

  Maybe if you offered to deduct this rental fee from the retail cost of the item, say within 24 hours after renting.. it might help sales....not to mention rentals.

  Totally agree. You could see that during free rental weekends scores in ready-goes (and other tournies too) go down significantly putting players who already have the clubs they want at a relative disadvantage... Free rental (or for a symbolic 1-2% of the club price) only for practice rounds sounds like a good compromise.

  We only get free rentals on American holidays, It would be nice for the Brits if we had them on our bank holidays. A lot of members of WGT play a lot over the holidays and the amount of prospective sales for WGT would probably go up as well.

  Just saying!!!
