Mate you sound genuine. I will say that I can play a tourney in my CC (been experimenting recently) and then to do the same in a RG is politely harder. Top players just putt better I think and that's something I want to work on. As a Tour Legend with more experience than me I am not arguing with you.
I will say that WGT look to be at a cross roads. The brave business decision to make it and develop it has long since seen the sugar boost leave. Frankly the forthcoming, suggest a hole, or whatever, for the Brandon crazy golf fest must be as much pushing brown n smelly uphill for the WGT designer as it is uninspiring for 99% of player's.
May I be bold (I usually am right or wrong LOL). WGT need to pay attention to the simple stuff right now:
1. Listen to player's. The high level club availability for players L90 and L/TL sux.
2. Make sure the game works with chrome. The most popular browser in the world.....Who do you want playing this game? Just High school 15 year old kids or families / real grown up busy life golfers to? Clear the cache and try a different browser is nonsense.
3. SORT OUT the average debacle. WGT is shooting itself in the foot with this one. Player's caring so much for it that they hardly try different courses. Other's that won't play par 3s because of what it does to best score (not even got into sand etc etc yet). The par 5s are great (IMO) BUT WGT will have player's avoiding these if they see precious sand saves / putting averages effected. GET A GRIP WGT on the simple stuff please and you may find it makes a difference.
4. New courses. Would be nice but do the quick wins to.
5. Newsletter to all the product suggestion's. A lesson in how to appear so removed...
Something has to change or this business will fade (quickly). I hope it prospers as I don't want to wait to wait another 20 years for a golf game to captivate me as much as the now extinct PGA Mega Drive:)
