I'm going to say this for the sake of saying it, and I know WGT won't care because of what I have to say.
I have never spent a dime on here and I doubt I ever will. I'm a university student and I don't have lots of money to spare on an internet golf game. That being said, i do like to play this game. I often play it in my spare time, and have been a regular member on the ladder site. I don't play for credits or anything of the such, I play for the fun of it. Since I've never spent a dime on here, I only use starter clubs, and a slightly increased driver(20 yards). Before the update I was a pro with little hope of being a master. I struggled to keep my average below 70. I didn't care too much about my average anyway, I just played for fun. Now since the update the scoring level for the tiers have changed and now my average makes me a master. I'm telling you being a master playing with the starter clubs is far from fun. I can't reach most hole. What's the fun in playing a 50 yard approach shot on your 3rd on a par 4. Birdies are rare, and my only chance for a par is a 1putt. I understand this is a business, and you did this whole thing to get people like me to buy clubs, but I'm not going to. For me this update has ruined my fun. I've started playing on TWO this past week, and frankly I may switch my fun to over there, and may not even play here anymore, but I know WGt doesn't care anyway since I wasn't a paying custumor, thanks WGT, I hope you get your money from some other sucker.
