    TRutger:

     If you comprehend my post,please address it directly. 

    Frankly I find your writing mostly unintelligible.

    More specifically, what does ' throwing carriers' mean?

    If you knew anything about electronic and radio frequency transmission you'd know. It means disrupting or breaking a connection or signal. IE;interference. I apologize for failing to address the non educated in what this web site boils down to. That is,more specifically a collection of electronic programs delivered in multi faceted formats.

    Your wrong. It's not a video game. This isn't ps3,sega genesis or nintindo. It's a completely different format of delivery and processing.  Again,"And I hate repeating myself",my point is realism. This is supposed to be the most realistic formatted golf game. If someone can average below 67 it's just like the video game you speak about. Which is exactly NOT what WGT should be about.

    And if you knew how to quote a post you were replying to, we would know who you are speaking to...ya think?

     

    But must be you are such a techie, little things like that escape your all knowing technical mind.

     

    Carrier...er, carry on.

    "Anyone carding a 53 on that qualifier is playing with a loaded deck."

    True.  The current leader has amassed 9,700+ ranked rounds of experience.  Vs your grand total of 75 ranked rounds, I would definitely call that a loaded deck.  C'mon as a technically oriented individual you must appreciate the staggering difference between those numbers.

    "One major point that validates that is I've hit the same shot with many different weather set ups using the same EQ and the results are exactly the same. Exactly the same."

    Need a bit more information here. e.g. maybe a snapshot of the screen before a shot, power used, dinged or how far off the ding (say, in pixels), distances achieved, elevations at the time, wind speeds at  the time, to support what you mean by exactly the same etc. etc.

    You get the drift:  making an unequivocal statement like that without "data" or how carefully you controlled your variables, or how many times you were able to repeat the effect, is not going to be very convincing.

    TRutger:

    The top 7 players on the leader board are in the low to mid FIFTY'S? So are they hacking the game AND throwing,"Carriers",on the rest of us? This game is so rigged it's offensive. Why is it you cant let the ability play the game? The third hole par three using a three wood with 20mph tail wind straight,left or right lands in the SAME spot in the front of the green rough three feet off the green as a shot into the same wind. Directions and speed. Explain that? The fourth hole green. Is an absolute joke. When you choose it to play that way. 

    How about a REAL GAME? PLEASE. 

     for lower level, less experienced players to come in here an start to point there finger is just disrespectful.. don't you all ever think before you speak? It’s no secret that there is a serious lack of self-confidence all around us. 

    I' am going to be 100% honest here,, back when i could not shoot a 29 or 59 i use to have all the same things run through my mind an i just kept playing,, but i did not come in forums an disrespect  any of them great players that had spent all them hours putting in all them rounds,,, yes i had my moments where i was getting so mad cause no matter how hard i tryed i could not come close to them guys/gals an yes i wanted to say things in the heat of the moment but i did'nt.....

    Instead of making  an ass out of myself in the forums, i started to follow them better player's  an tryed to get all the info i could an it worked the day i found one of the greatest players on WGT had made some videos an yes from that day on i just kep getting better......

    Before i found them videos, I use to just grip an rip them all the time i did not realize that there is so much more to this game then just looking an hitting the ball to the hole with whatever club would go that far ( NO I" AM NOT STUPID ) i just did not understand the game has a formula to it so i just kept watching them videos an started to learn why i sucked at the game an could not play like them......

    hitting fairways an landing on greens is easy an you must understand an know what the clubs you are using can do in all condition's , thats just the beginning now learn how to scramble an play bunker shots,, them are all the basics that will get u in the low 60tys an 30tys...

    now if u want to do better then that start mapping the course's learn where you get your best results for approach shots down to knowing what club to use what back spin to apply, to knowing the green u are landing on where the best putts are from to knowing how hard to hit for different green speeds to understanding brakes....

     See its not just a walk in the park if you want low score's  you must take the time to do all the things that it asks from a player, that means take mental notes or write them down whatever works for you....

    The last an most important,, practice an repetition an one day you to can be shooting low scores.....Repetition of the same thought or physical action develops into a habit which repeated frequently enough, becomes an automatic reflex

    So my point is spend more time doing a little research an practicing instead of coming in forums an knocking better player's just cause you are not able to shoot low scores yet...

    Nice post Jason, but I would like to add, learn learn learn how to read the breaks in the greens. Putting is so important in this game. If you can't putt you might as well hang it up, and that's my problem. 

    It just amazes me how some of you guys can read these breaks
