  Sounds like you had a bad day at the office, or a round where you struggled with the putter.

  Practice makes perfect and you average 1.73 per hole, not bad for a tour pro. Everyone plays the same greens and others don't complain that its the program that causes the missed putts, they graciously accept they didn't putt well. Perhaps you could do the same? Just a thought.

  He's right. Never mind the hundreds of thousands who have little or no problems. Let's change it all just for him.

  LOL OH i have problems with my putting, I cant however attribute them to "horrendous programming"

  Pingthis1 should read the post I made regarding issues within the game - may even make him smile.

  sorry to not concur superstars.....but when my real-life putting stroke avg. is lower than a cyber one....its the game........and I guess the into wind shots that that have no effect on distance is my problem also, don't get upset.....its just bad bugs for a game with potential, thats all......the closer you are to the hole, the easier it should be to hit the line....just like in real golf, I can hit a 2-3 footer with the toe or heel and it still goes in and stays on line......the putting on here is so far from any other sim game out there, it will never succeed or sell  very well....if its left like it is.....lmao ;)

  Putting is pretty good in this game. Just because your putting average is better than the game doesn't mean it's the game's fault. Obviously, you aren't good at it. Don't start blaming WGT because you haven't developed your skills yet.

  There are over five and a half million registered users, so I guess she was kidding.

  He's right 2years 57 rounds played WGT plz change the greens for him, everyone else is doing all wrong. Just keep cherry pickin ur rounds and you will have the perfect avg of 50.00 and the putting won't matter then,          Fairways&Greens

  I think the OP is making the mistake of hitting on the toe/heel of a real putter, with missing the ding on the game.

  In the game you have to visual it as if the club face is open or closed.  That is the same as missing the ding.  If you putted a 3 ft putt, with your club face open, it will not go straight.  The ding isnt determined by hitting toe/heel.  So that is why your confused, and frustrated.

   

  At the end of the day, this is a virtual golf game.  This is meant to be fun, and I find it really fun.  I enjoy myself, even if I dont putt or hit the ball well.
