  Irregardless is a century-old colloquial word that means the same as irrespective and regardless. Ever Heard The Phrase Smart But Stupid. Not Wasting Anymore Time With You Remedial Internet Stricken Type Characters!!

  TarheelsRule:

  I would love to see the financial statements that show that WGT is worth billions.

  LOL. Yes I think we all would but unless it lists publicly that we will never see,

  The rest of your post is spot on IMO.

  I would like Chad to state where he sees the game going in the next few years and how many full High Definition stroke play courses we can expect (no names is fine) and what does concern me was the side venture in baseball and whether this has sucked money away from WGT

  And it is usually the same people moaning over and over again and never have anything constructive to say. The simple reason they stay is because this game leaves all others in its wake.

  And some of them are like that in every day  life also . They have a glass that is not in the 1/2 empty or 1/2 full glass , But just a empty glass and look for something / anything / any one to blame it on .

  LOL this is so true and usually can be spotted a mile away from the frozen scowl on their face, I call it the victims mentality or the eternal pessimist - someone please full their glasses up and they may see life can actually be enjoyed and its not a crime.

  I do enjoy this game & im very greatful to be able to play such a awesome game :)  I love the scenery & the comraderie that wgt presents. I just get tired of playing the same courses over & over. I realize that its not an overnight process to create a entire course & it cost a lot of money to do so.    I tend to get impatient at times...lol    Anyway, hope everyone has a great night.

  When you consider there was no new HD Open course last year, and the money had to have been budgeted to shoot one, so you've got extra $Ms to pocket or re-invest  I think the answer alanti is obvious.  They chose to re-invest in a baseball game.

  So here's a question for all of you.   The deal to photograph Royal Lytham couldn't be made.  What if they could have made a deal for a TruGolf version of Royal Lytham and then paid TruGolf for the course "photos" so RL would be a free Open course.  No greens fee.  Then hold a Virtual Open, etc.

  Would that have been more acceptable than no Open course?  Knowing of course a HD version was out of the question.

  I agree that this would have been the best alternative under the circumstances, not ideal but much better than nothing,

  But bearing in mind that it takes say, six months from start to finish to make a course and negotitaions for the rights would have started a LONG time before and I personally believe WGT always knew that RL was a no goer from pretty much the start  I am a little cynical that the money had been budgeted to shoot one (and the money "saved" went to the baseball venture)..

  The other alternative would be to find another suitable course and I feel we will be in the same boat this year.
