  I've been told I need to upgrade my irons to progress further, which is why I was considering upgrading now.

  Whoever told you that is wrong. Those G20s are plenty of club to get you to Legend. The G10 version was the set to have when the Legend tier came about.  You're better off waiting until you get there to upgrade. You'll be at a higher level and be able to get better stuff. And when you do, pay attention to the meter speeds. Try to set your bag up so the speed is the same from your 3W to your PW. It will make a difference in your consistency.

  I agree 100%  Take a look at seniorbruno's bag.  That guy can more than handle his own when it comes to this game.  He still uses the G20 set with the 210 3i, just like you Miffy. And by the way, he wants you to "obey Andre."  :)

  The downtime sure didn't help loading. Have yet to play a complete game without a "unexpected error". Whats up

  I heard a rumor it is SSDD. More clubs and balls, but not the real stuff that people want. Features that keep getting ignored, and bugs that never get fixed. Money, money, money, money, is all you think about?

   

  LOL, and a half star difference from the R1 and the new driver. OMG. My schlong just perked up. NOT.

  Max clubs that are called Max, but none of them are Maxxed out.

  All the clubs are out of order now. So now you have to go through every single club to find what your looking for.

  May not be the first to notice, but will be the first to say so. The crayon work on the clubs in the pro shop isn't the only thing that has changed. All of my clubs are backing up like hell, putting is a complete utter joke at the moment, and my 3 wood won't go 200 yards with a 5 mph head wind. Have tried BPB, SA, St. G. Best of par 5. front and back. It is a total change from how my clubs reacted yesterday. If it is just me, then ignore this post and forget I even mentioned it. Just seems so strange once again. I have cleared all the usual suspects, re-stocked the beer, emptied the ash tray, and called my 83 year old mother in Penn. to see how she is doing. I have never had balls backing up with every iron. 

  As Redd Foxx said "You got to wash your ass"

  And no more spacebar issue when using Chrome!  Very nice update, WGT. Thanks for fixing those bugs.  Now, about the barrage of ads I've been seeing lately. Wait...what's that? Getting Pinehurst up and running is expensive?  Well, ok...  ;)

  I don't know if it's been mentioned, but, they've also released the full schedule for the 2014 WGT Virtual Tour.

  Clubs are in dollar order now...   from Dearest to Cheapest, instead of Level.

  I read somewhere that the new driver would be great with tailwinds, carrying the ball further then ever before. Well, we should not be worry then, because tailwind seems to be almost an unknown quautity on wgt. Just played Andrews, had 3, on the first and the both par 3's

  I don't complain much about vem, I understand why even though the best still shoot low 50's...

  But after I play my a$$ off for 6 months to get to the champ greens and find them slower than tournament greens as in hitting putts harder than I would have as a legend and still coming up short, add shot distances being very erratic, wind never right, lip outs galore, and the occasional shot flying 20' offline for no apparent reason...I wanted to bring something to your attention.

  You provide me with a venue to play a great game online where I can have fun and enjoy myself, and I am admittedly addicted! However, I think you over estimate the addictive power of your game, it is not heroin or crack, I don't have to have it and I CAN GIVE IT UP WITHOUT EVEN GOING TO REHAB!!!! When conditions are like this, I slow my play down, but I can stop altogether for a week, a month, or for good...I can give my account to my son-in-law and he plays with .75 balls instead of 5.00 balls and won't spend near what I do whether it be watching videos/taking surveys or cash...

  Well I already attained my goal of TL, and frankly it isn't nearly as much fun as it was under the conditions it is set to now, just something for you to think about~~~careful what you wish for!!!!!
