    MainzMan:
    My biggest gripe with my caddie, apart from him never buying the drinks, is when I have, for example, a 17 foot downhill putt with a tricky break.  He gives me the 25' putter scale, fair enough but because of the downhill run I switch to the 15' one.   When the break is hard to read I change to pitch to get a better idea of how the ball is going to roll.  So now I know where to aim, switch back to putt and blast the ball past because changing back to putter has given me the 25' scale again.  I know it's my own fault and it's only a problem if you change putter scales but it's incredibly annoying when a birdie chance turns into a 12' putt to save par. 

    Now that what i'm talikng about, but it happens to me when i need the first avatar movement on 25 foot scale, i change to chip, back to putter and dont understand why the 25 foot scale's meter is running so slowly from the first 10 foot avatar movement.  PROBABLY because when changing back to putter from chip it selected the 15 foot scale, and that 10 foot is actually 5 foot! Nothing worse than seeing that birdie putt come up 5 foot short.  One things for sure, it has forced me to take a few seconds longer at putting to make sure caddy's house is in order

    We should be able to buy a better caddie in the shop.

    Or at least be able to tackle him into the lake.

    One of the caddie's best tricks (have fallen for this more than once) is to hand the unaware player the Driver on one of the early (not so long) par 3's at RSG or CCC..

    You think you've hit the sweet-spot and gauged the 3 wood distance perfectly only to watch your new ball fly off the radar some 300 yards out of bounds lol!

    Spare his life but perhaps make him optional for higher Tiers.

    We should be able to throw the caddy in the lake. If it's your last one, maybe it will be replaced with a WGT Starter Caddy for the remainder of the round.

    I beat my caddy with my 3 iron repeatedly for over an hour. I lost a good 3 iron, but gained a better caddy :-P

    This would only work if you upgraded to a custom caddy before. Where in the Pro Shop did you find this option? Is it a hidden "Nation" feature?

    The auto caddy is in the game to speed up play.

    While it sometimes gives me a wrong club, I can't blame it if I don't look and see the club before I hit............I guess that not everyone likes to accept blame.
