    Back to back birdies negated by 3 of the biggest BS bogeys on the next 3 holes? Are you f**king kidding me? I two putt from 6 ft away on a flat straight putt that the angels push left, on one, blow passed the hole on what is showing as a steep uphill putt on the next and somehow hit a ball 170 ft with a 160 ft 5 iron with a 20 mph wind blowing in my face!

    Other members are telling me to get better clubs, but do you people really think I'm spending another dime of REAL money on a game that is so blatantly screwed up if not deliberately rigged against me?

    If I play a crap round fair and square I can deal with that, but this is as far from fair and square as you could ever get! It's gettng so I don't know how to play ANY hole anymore.

    And whats with the greens turning into mountain ranges and the grades and contours changing all the time?

    And how come my ball always seems to channel AWAY from the hole when the ball aways chanels down TO the hole when I'm watching the real thing on television?

    The ball here takes bounces I've NEVER seen in 30 years of following the PGA .

    The game isn't right and I'm sick of it.

    Yet another great round down the goddamned crapper

    You know why I have only 140 some odd ranked rounds played? Because I forfeited the other 500 ranked rounds I started because I was getting royally screwed and refused to finish the rounds.

    It sounds like the whole world is against you.

    no...just WGT.

    And I dont care if I sound like a whiner to you dude, I couldn't care less!  This game is not right and since I have invested real green money, I will *** and complain as much as my litle heart desires until its fixed!

    I have been a member since 2008 yet i only started complaining about this game recently.........coinciding with other members complaining about the exact same thing. So either we all went crazy at the same time despite not knowing each other........ or we have a legitamite beef!

    What you have to realise, if you use your scroll button, sometimes the caddy doesn't register the club change, it might say 7iron on the screen and you see it in your hand, but the blue box in bottom left might still be showing 6 iron thus the overshoot.  Its happened to me plenty of times, even when i scrolled to my 60 yard wedge on St Andrews #18, i passed the wedge by mistake and landed on driver, i scrolled back to wedge, SAW IT IN MY HAND, took the shot from 3/4 power on meter and was shocked to see the actual shot was taken with my driver!. A lost Callaway (at the time) and O.O.B AND cost me a challenge match!

    Look at this image for proof of what I am saying:

    Blimey Chris!  I've had some odd things happen to me a couple of times but just assumed I wasn't looking clearly.  If that kind of bug can happen, I'm gonna be REAL careful in future.  Looks like no more use of the scroll wheel for me!

    chris- it's not just when using the scroll wheel to change clubs. I get a similar discrepancy multiple times a round without using the wheel.

    Hang in there.  Try not to get frustrated.
