Wow .... I am surprised at the persons with conflicting beliefs for a game, and it is just that, a game.
In real life, you can go and spend a couple of hundred dollars for a set of clubs, or you can spend thousands. Regardless of what you buy we all stand on the tee for the first time equal. A hack!!!
It is only with time, practice, better understanding, and some individual ability that we improve. Some quicker than others. WGT is no different, except that you have to earn your right to purchase better equipment as you improve, gain a better understanding, and climb the infamous tier ladder.
On a real Saturday comp, we play our rounds, and are all challenged by the elements in equal fairness. It is those with greater skill and experience who have a better round. WGT no different. We play our game on an even playing field, distance pending on tier, but are all equal to the elements.
Build the bridge, fix it if it's broke, deal with it if it aint.
Rodent ..... Out!!
