ADS !!!!!

  Are we not bombarded enough with all the ads that are on this game? Now, in between holes, there are now animated ads constantly popping up, which since they were implemented into this game, now my swing meter has become more jittery than before, and yes, I have no Apps running in the back ground, and yes, I reduce the quality to low, to insure better game play.

  one other thing and i'm sure i'm not alone on this. Why, after paying for a sleeve of balls, are we penilized by losing an expensive ball if it goes in the weeds, or out of bounds? Even the Pro's have the option to find their ball, and or hit from where it lands. The balls on this game, are the worst part in my book. Why not just charge us 1 flat fee, and allow us to buy the ball of our choice, and have the more expensive balls, all slow meter? I'd be willing to fork out $25.00 if I knew i'd have unlimited rounds of use.

  I have never seen an ad between holes. Have you tried using Adblock or Adhunter?

  There is one above the intermediate scorecard - dunno about the other sides...

  Regardless of the ads, how about the purchased out of pocket sleeve's of balls, that when hit in weeds, and out of bounds, you lose the whole use of that ball, and it's replaced with a new one?

  About sleeves: Mind your use of apostrophes - green grocers lurking.

  About "that when hit ... you lose ...": Not the brightest of phrases, is it?

  About lost balls: I'm used to replace them in RL golf games, too, keeping rule 6-7 in mind: Pace of play.

  GAD59:

  That's called realism. If you hit 300 yards into deep rough there's very little chance you'd find it.

  I am kind of getting sick of when I start a round I get to sit and watch a 30 second ad before I can play. Do we NOT pay enough for the virtual equipment and balls etc. 

  Keep you ads out of the game WGT this isn't  a completely free game and you guys make enough money. Keep the ads to  the sides of our profile pages! I don't want to have to wait 30 seconds to watch some bs when the game has already loaded lickety split.

  Even get an ad most times if someone disconnects from a game then you get to watch another ad  when it reloads and it's total garbage.

  I'm with GAD59 on the balls.   Hell, we wind up in 60/70% crap and find the ball, ball hits a tree branch 70' in the air, drops down and we find it.  Penalize me a shot, but let me find my ball at least

  $7.00 for a sleeve of balls, give us a little extra usage also, or like he said...pay extra for ALOT of extra usage, like 7-8 18 hole rounds.  Just a thought....  Oh, and don't penalize the Gent for grammar usage...we aren't in school anymore, so who the hell cares.
