    I believe it was about a week ago that I purchased a new avatar.  I believe I did every thing correctly but it doesn't show up on my game. I tried to purchase it again but it says I already have that item purchased and can not purchase it again. So where the heck is it. I have tried for mohnts and months to improve my game and nothing works I just wanted the new avatar to help my game since nothing else works. I am seriously considering leaveing the game. I would appreciate a little help

    A different avatar won't improve your game. You may find it in the "appearance" section.

    Completing your bag (e.g. with a decent 3WD) or choosing custom balls (even the cheapest) may contribute to your efforts.

    Hit it straight!

    Click on appearance on your profile page. Find the avatar that you purchased and select it, then click save. If you already have the game client open close it and load it again. Your selected avatar does not change until you reload the game client window.  I hope this helps. As the previous poster stated a new avatar is only cosmetic and does not change how you play the game. It is just a different look. What will help is better clubs better balls and a better understanding of how to play the game.

    Yeah, I know a new avatar will not effect my game. I was just being a lil bit of a wise guy beause I was so upset. MY REAL POBLEM IS WITH THE GAME ITSELF.  My swnig bar is just way to fast and I can not get the timing right.  You would think that after all these months I  would be better than I am and it is a little madding. I try to learn from mistakes but I find that any correction that I make just gives almost the same results. I did much better when I was  a beginner. I am ready to chuck it  all in but I just keep thnking, "maybe tommorow", but I am running ourt f tomorrows.and that 2nd cut grass just eats my lunch.

    Ragtag if you changed to a better feel premium ball your game will improve. Using starter Balls is your obvious problem.

    By using a better ball you will slow your meter down.  Choose a ball with as many "feel" dots as you can afford.  The more "feel" the slower the meter goes.

    Hang with it, gl.

    Starter  balls with Starter clubs are quite slow...

    Above that, it's about the right combination between clubs and balls.

    As I said, even the cheapest slow down the meter and have other benefits.

    as already stated...get some balls with more feel and more spin. Your scores will reflect it immediately.

    You have 4 problems as i see it. First like others have said is the free ball. It is just too fast, a better ball with feel will slow the meter down some and help. You have some of the fastest meter speed clubs there are and with the free ball they are very very difficult to hit.

    . #2 your bag is not complete. You have one spot open. Add either a hybrid or a 3rd wedge. For me it is a 3rd wedge.

    #3. you need a better 3 wood.

    #4 is your choice of driver. The Super-Tri is one of the hardest drivers in the game to hit. It has a very fast and erratic meter. The Super-Tri meter accelerates just before reaching the ding bar making very difficult to time correctly. the G15 irons are equally hard to hit. If I were you I would consider the level 68 Rocket Ballz Driver. It is only 3 yards shorter than the Super-Tri but has 1/2 dot more precision 1/2 dot more forgiveness and a much slower meter making much easier to hit. Also the Rocket Bladez  irons or Rocket Ballz irons that are near your level would be much better for you as well.
