  Why am I a pro and hitting from further back Tee's than tour masters?! I'm in a skins match and it's pretty ridiculous. and I've won 0 skins in my past 2 skins matches. I should not be handicapped to these tees. especially playing against these tiered players.
  
  I won 1 skin yesterday Versus*  a Tour Legend and he blocked me. I was wondering if tandemplumbers crying had anything to do with this....
  
  I'm now playing at a huge disadvantage with level 30 irons. =\

  It was par 5 challenge and I won 1 hole vs a Tour Legend. he was really raged and complaining heavily....  I'm going with that idea as that is the only thing that I did before this happened. it wasn't even my match... it was him and his buddies and I was just joining to experience some Tour Legend type of play...
  
  playing these skins matches versus tour masters with the level 90 irons and hitting farther back than them with level 30 clubs is highly uncalled for... they now have every advantage over me through 280+ drivers and 220+ irons and 240+3woods. I should've be behind them on the tee. especially as my irons have no accuracy when I have to hit green with 3irons all day and they can use 7 irons that are level 80+

  If I'm getting special treatment, at least make the level 83 or level 90 clubs available to me.  
  and Tandemplumber has a bad report from the people who noticed me hitting farther back than them as a lowered tiered player. they said they played him a few times and all he did was talk smack and have a negative attitude.....

  I'm not sure what you are talking about really but if it was practice skins then the tees were set by the game host..

  why do you randomly butt into threads* to not know what you are talking about.  learn to read. as everything is explained. and then think about what you just said. and try not to do it ever again to others

  What course was it you played, pro tee and mastertee are almost same distance on Bethpage, and if i was you i would stop cry over a game you play for credits, its gamble and have a risc. Go an ordinaire ranked or a scored match and see how different it is from Skin. Even Alt-shot and match are not the same as a stroke, many tee's in altshot are shorter, and definitely dont react same was as they do in a ranked stroke!

  Trust what i write, i'm lvl97-legend and have played all kind of games we have here on wgt. and all courses. I have favouritecourses and some i just dont like, but i play them all!

  Learn to read, I'm pro tier, hitting "FARTHER" back than the tour masters i just played against. and they have the level 90 irons. and I'm hitting with level 30, I should'nt have to be using 3i vs their 7 iron as a pro.

  and yes, i played a master and tour master on white tees just now and I was on Yellow. and lower tiered.

  If it was a practice he cant win credits, and wouldnt have longer tee than the setup is.

  If i understand this right some tees were longer?? It is not true no tees from pro are longer than master, but some are same or almost same distance and thats very long with lvl 30 clubs!

  Well i often have to use my 3-4 and 5-irons to get green, cause i tee of from the parkinglot!

  like I said, why am I being specially treated. ask "forthelove5" and "bhdphoto" as they were wondering the same thing and then bhd explained to me about Tandemplumbers antics
  
  and thanks for helping me out with paultron and his science. I appreciate common sense and defense vs those types of people

  Well its hard to explain what had happen in that game, but if you had longer tee's it seem a hickup from wgt! I can only advise you go stroke, thats the hardest, but most fair way to get your tier up, cause you dont get advantage for play against higher tier, like you do if you win a match against a higher tier!
