    I know this what I'm going to ask is kind of silly but anyways here we go.

    I've been playing stroke games to low my average to become a tour master but it's being very hard to get 4 down all the time. I play 9 holes only.

    If I play a full 18 do I still need only 4 down?

     

    Thanks

    LOL - that would be nice!

    The apparent answer is "No" - nine hole results are doubled for average purpose.

    a 32 is equivalent to a 64.

    Give me a shout, I'll let you beat me about 5 times and you'll be a Legend. Make sure you have the credits and the level to get the top clubs. They will work great for the first few rounds, then they will play like starters.

    Six rounds in two weeks isn't exactly making a concerted effort, but why rush anyway ?

    To get to a tier with faster greens when you obviously haven't mastered the ones you're on now ?

    Then to get to the next tier after and not be able to buy the equipment you need ?

    Take your time and learn at a steady pace.

    Well thanks anyways. And let's see when I can become a tour master lol. It's going to take some time.

    i have  opposite question. and i still searching for solution.

    i am Tour Pro (wgt advanced me, and surprised me - i dont want that). now, my AV is 70.92. i dont want to be 'master'. when i checking what kind of play will give me more AV points and safe distance from 'master' tier i have no luck and lose 4-5 AV points very easy (CC tourney stroke, i defeat 1 or 2 'master's  (my fault) and some +3 stroke scores(?)). even i have tourney stroke score +20 my AV status not changed. i need an really goood advice. thnx for help.

    21, keep playing ranked stroke rounds. Play at your speed and your level. All the blitz and other nonsense will not help you learn to play all the shots. If you beat a higher level player, it will advance you faster than you are prepared for. Try to play all the courses and learn different shots. Don't worry if you shoot over par, after so many rounds your score will only go down. Don't be too excited to buy better equipment, until you reach a level to get something worth the price. do the best with what you have, it will only make you better once you get the good sticks and learn how to play them. Good luck, hit em straight.

    thnx for very good reply. but that mean - there is no light for me. i dont want to be 'master' . i love my TourPro skin and dont want to spent money for credits (different view of game playing - this is not story about money). so, only solution for me is: not play tourney stroke with good score result, dont defeat 'master's and upper tier players, dont have any good stroke score and everything else. so, no future for me. thats not fair - if wgt care only for players just for money. where is sport spirit and friendship between people here? if that formula for AV points is just like that you said, that mean wgt always pushing me to harder playing conditions and pushing me to Shop waiting for my money, with no other solution and giving me just few little peaces of wgt game cake. now, my destiny here is to be hungry every day. very very disappointed.

    A little hard to understand there, but, if that is what you want from the game, make some good friends and play AS games. You can have a good time and enjoy the game. It really is your choice 21, I will play for fun with ya anytime. Get some buddies and give me a shout.

    That is it, 21, sport spirit and friendship end at business' doors.

    Like in all "free" games, they want but your best - for themselves ($$). You are at a most crucial point: The step from TP to Master adds so much length to the game that an upgrade of equipment is almost mandatory. OTOH it's not too difficult to arrive at the gates.

    Lucky enough you have a decent driver already.

    Thus, you either decide to buy a 3WD, an iron set and - if possible - one additional wedge, or you act like you said:

    Don't play matches against higher tiers, don't play where you might win credits.

    Don't play any(!) score below 35 / 70 in ranked strokeplay, because keeping the average up is not about playing high scores but to avoid low scores!

    But, before you leave with a broken heart because of your "destiny", think how you might earn a few real kroner which you could invest in your favourite game(?)
