  From the latest news release....new hole locations. Have seen and played the Kiawah course and new holes, but have yet to see the others. According to the release you can select the new hole locations on Bethpage, Oakmont and St. Andrews, have tried a variety of methods to do this to no avail. 

  Is this functioning ?, and if so,  how do you accomplish this.  Thanks

   

  "The qualifying round of the WGT tournament features 18 new hole locations on Kiawah, giving you all new approach shots and putts to master.

  There are also extra hole locations on WGT's Bethpage, Oakmont and St Andrews golf courses as well. And when you play strokeplay on these courses, you'll automatically get a mix of the new and old hole locations for a new challenge -- or you can play just the new holes by selecting that option in practice rounds on each course."

  hi

  when you are setting up a match you can select hardness. it'll allow you to play random pins, which will include many of the new locations.

  All the new adds for enhancements are fine  (buy balls before i am out) etc.  But the better golfers (not me) have zeroed in on all hole locations.  WGT  needs to change hole locations at least every 3 months,  even a regular course changes evey 2 days.!!!

  They can only change hole locations if enough pictures were taken at the time the course was photographed. Moving the hole a couple of feet changes every shot distance. It's not as easy as some people seem to think.

  Why not move the hole a few feet, I can imagine the x100 of bugs this site would have within 1 day.
