  Just joined WGT, so I really don't know much about how to play too well. I've played several courses (9 holes) and usually shoot in the mid 40s to 50s.

  I can drive the ball fairly good, but I can't chip or putt a lick. When you chip, do you have to use all of your swing  power?

  Also, how come you can only play the front 9 holes of the courses?

  I'm pretty impressed with the graphics of this game.

  You still have some EZ-swing clubs equipped in your bag. I would replace those with the starter gear for starters. Welcome to the madness, lol.

  Welcome to the game and a great tutorial recommended by MB. Also agree that you need to dump the EZ Swing clubs - they are dreadful and you will never learn using them. Also use the search to the right as there is a ton of great information in the forums

  The key to this game is practice, trial and error, then more practice.

  You can choose the whether you play front nine, back nine or a full 18 under the game client page,

  On the game client screen when you choose the course you set the options. Middle right of that screen put the cursor over holes and use the arrows to change from nine holes to eighteen or front nine to back nine.
