  Does the game become more difficult as you progress through the levels.  Before I advanced to tour pro I was averaging 72, since then it seems like the shots I was making have now become harder, especially around the greens, and my average has gone up a couple strokes.  Is it just me, or ???

  hi

  the green speed and hole length are both increased, so from that point of view it is harder.

  Also dont forget if your useing starter balls as the green speeds increase its more and more difficult  for all shots to "hold" the green,especially if your useing starter clubs also.

  I've upgraded my clubs, but I am still using starter balls.  That doesn't seem to be the problem tho, its more like I'm having trouble around the greens like I did before I upgraded my wedges.

  Been a long time for you, Icon, hasn't it?

  Tour Pro only increases green speed to very fast, next tee change at Master tier.
