    And i'm HAPPY, and it did't cost me ONE CENT!!!!

     thank you WGT for the unlimited FREE BALL'S you supply!

     

    Lol, I just don't understand why you feel it's necessary to exaggerate like this. the max amount of balls you can lose in 1 round is actually 94.

     

    i was waiting for someone to point this out :)  good one. 

    now - to the per day loss........are you having fun?  that's the important question :)

    picky picky picky

    It's like when WGT promises 100 yds for a specific shot with xyz (club/ball/wind) and you actually only get 94 yds. WGT sez 'Close enough!'

    And so should we - give David a little rhetorical breathing room, lol.

     Fun? LOL   Takes a lot of time to dispose of those dang unlimited balls!

    But for me, it's a good stress reliever!

    And theres no side effects; that those pink, yellow, purple pills cause to your liver, kidneys, stomach, or erectile dysfunction! :)

    Change your calculator battery "P"!   18 hole game, 10 shot's max per hole? 

     you do the math! ;)

    I did. When you shoot a ball out of bounds, you get a penalty shot (same goes for water). So your next shot is No. 3. You shoot another 1 in the drink, your next shot is No. 5, etc.

    So if you lose a ball with every shot you take, you can only lose up to 5 balls on any par 3 or 4 and 6 balls on any par 5, hence 94 max lost balls (per 18 holes), the rest are penalty shots (you wouldn't even be credited for them with XP points - hit ball experience).

    I'll give you poetic license though, just don't ever question my math skills, they're just fine ;-)

    Edit: P.S.: I hope you're not putting them all in the same spot in the water. The inevitable build up might make them reach the surface and some poor unsuspecting soul who hits the pile will see his ball ricochet and hit the moon (considering how balls react when they hit anything other than grass) ;-)

    Don't make them angry mate...... we wouldn't  like them when they're angry.

    A few more posts like this and their 'Marketing Department' might decide...... no more free balls !

    Or WGT !!   

    You on the other hand had to at least pay for the electricity....

    Yes   I had to pay for the electricity, about .02 cents but wondering how much they have to pay for the CPU's?

    anyway another 600 tonight! Heard the other day Lee Trevino hit 1000 balls a day, not counting chips.pitches and putts! :)

    Look at it this way; if the USA Treasury can print "unlimited" paper bills backed by "NOTHING" shall we say Virtual! What do you think it cost to print them?   

    CPU' electricity ??.. probably,  but if as seems your point was to cost WGT money then I don't see how that could possibly help us (members) ??

    We spend enough and are never satisfied with lack of courses etc etc etc, so.....seems like lowering their bottom line will not be good for any of us in the long run ?

    Anyway just a thought...keep banging those freebies in the drink... I got no probs with that. Been there occasionally myself to let off steam after $6 OB :))
