  Hey guys .. new here and I have a question.  If I buy a driver as a hack and pay 30 dollars for a driver which increases my distant from 220 to 245, what happens as I progress?  does the same driver increase as my levels go up? Or am I out 30 dollars as I need to purchase a new driver with longer distances?

  Thanks in advance..

  You will need to make many decisions as you progress regarding equipment and how far you want to progress in this game,if you buy a driver rated at 245yds it will stay at 245yds forever,same holds true with Irons and any other clubs,you will need to upgrade your equipment for farther distances as you advance in tiers and drive from tees that are farther away from the greens,good luck and enjoy......

  First you cant buy a $30 driver as a Hack and @ level 12, you can only buy equipment at your level or below. Second any equipment you do buy you can sell it back to WGT for a reduced rate..Hope that helps, Good luck

  Thanks Sweetspott!   That is exactly what I was looking for.

  Second any equipment you do buy you can sell it back to WGT for a reduced rate..

  You can sell it back but I think it's only 25% of the purchase price so be carful how you spend your money.

  Only clubs, not balls or accessories - and at the rate Esty said.

  On a different note, unless you have a lot of credits to burn, hold off buying equipment as any equipment you buy before level 50 will not last long. Play daily and you will level up quickly and get better clubs that will last longer as you tier up. Use the time to really learn the game.

  I don't think the sale back is even that high!  If and when WGT ever has another free rental period, use those as a chance to experiment with different clubs and try and get the most bang for your bucks.
