Junemonk:I keep thinking, would I rather spend my money on Golden Tee at a bar with friends (where I can at least have fun competing, even if it's not terribly realistic), or spend money on WGT where I'm fighting against devious UI designed (apparently) to suck my money for better clubs and performance.
The Oakmont USGA setup is not even the hardest setup!!. can you imagine Stronger wind?? what about championship green speed?.
i think WGT have done something here that no other golf game developers have done and that is to create a realistic golf game for golfers (not gamers). the accuracy of Oakmont is impressive and WGT don't deserve criticism for this one. if the conditions were any easier it would take the fun out completely.
also just to remind all the whiners, that the qualifier is unlimited. i cant tell you how many times i've restarted until i'm at least -4 after 9 holes. the real life course record is 63 and 63 is also my best score on here.
the current USGA Leaderboard is an accurate display of the best players on here when it comes to Unlimited tourney's. those players can grind out good scores. you watch for the single play. the real scores will show.
