  Fairways that can go from bone dry to swamp like. Green speeds that vary within  the round. Like the new wind indicator, say slow to very fast.or very fast to champ.

  Well  I don't see the sense in asking for any new equipment with the way the game plays with all of its issues..i'd rather see the issues fixed so I can at least use the equipment I already have .....disconnects. .the meter(its a very unstable part of the game) and the list goes on , as for coloured balls I don't get the ..must have yellow balls thingy going on at the moment..........BUT .why is there a dilemma about making balls yellow...at present you tell our computers to make  the majority of balls to be white and some you tell our computers to be different colours...whats it matter what colour the balls are as long as the players are buying them ...heck make em available in all the colours....but I aint paying more for em as its our pixels that make the colours anyway.

  Have a nice Day

  Many players have more than one sets of irons, like me, I have lv.59 PING 20 and lv.90 R11. I like 3i, 4i and 5i of R11, but I also like 6i, 7i, 8i and 9i of PING 20, if I can choose some clubs of R11 and some other clubs of PING 20 into my bag, I would really like it.

  new wedges and irons would be nice (that have new stats, dont just change the image)

  new balls that have good stats from srixon, callaway and taylormade for legends

  club sets that have a 225yd hybrid instead of a 3iron, eg pw,9,8,7,6,5,4,hybrid

  wind that can change thoughout the round or green speeds theat get quicker as the round goes on (but you might need to have the caddie warn you that they are getting faster or some sort of message

  a new links course would be great sometime soon

  new pins on royal st georges and olympic if possible, im sure everyone would love them

  how about some tayormade or cleveland irons for level 89 or 91 225yd - 120 same stats as the level 85 nikes

  it would be good to see a 245yds 3wood with 1 or 1.2 spin with good stats, a hybrid with 1.2 or 1.5 spin that goes 230yds - hybrids and woods with 4 precision and 3.1 forgiviness

  what about a 284 driver that is med/high trajectory with good stats and 3.5 meter

  wedges with 3.5 meter and good stats for level 92

  clubs with 3.5 meter will suit me fine

  Not make, but change.  Could you please make the notebook icon show in a different colour if populated with any text.  I probably have notes on 10% of the holes but having to check each time to see if anything is in there is a right pain in the backside.

  No, I'm talking about precision with dinged shots. Forgiveness is irrelevant with dings.

  Bertha 3W: 4.5 precision 2.5 forgiveness

  R11S: 4.5 precision 3.5 forgiveness

  I've had dinged shots go off line with the Bertha and I don't remember it happening as often with the R11S.

  Just a question of perspective. I've used the Bertha, R11s and Max extensively, and they all ding 8 or 9 yards off line at the extreme. R11s was the worst offender for me. Anyway, the fact that any of these clubs can ding so far off line with 4.5 dots of precision for 245ish yards, whereas a 5 dot Nike iron with no spin goes 240ish in a 3yd circle is exactly why I would like to see other clubs with 5 dots of precision.

  (Kia #17 long pin 1-3mph crosswind from right to left, ding shot perfect distance of 245yd, but 6yd to the right of the hole(moved the aim almost 5grid to right). I love the Big Bertha 3wd lol.)
  
  Maybe a new wedges with: high trajectory, 5 precision, 3.5-4 forgiveness, 4 spin, meter speed 3-3.5, avg distance: 100yd, 80yd, 60yd.

  I for one agree with a lot of the suggestions mentioned previously (Titleist balls, high end 3-wood with similar specs to the BB 3wd (245 yards with 1.5 spin) and more forgiveness, etc.  

  I would also like to see different putters marketed to different player putting differences - meaning - ding and miss ding.  I know some people play miss ding and many of these people are sticking with the level 55 daytona because it works well for that style.  You could have for example a Nike/Rossa/Ghost putter with similar specs one having say 7 or 8 forgiveness and the otherwise identical putter having 1.5 forgiveness.  The programming for this would be very simple and I believe it would increase player satisfaction and revenues at the same time.

  I'm with the school that believes we don't need any better equipment ... if I'm not mistaken the last two Legend Cabo front 9 RG's featured a 24 winning them. Not that I was entered in either of them, I just looked at the leaderboards.They may have been from shorter tees and if they were it's understandable, but nine under is beginning to be no good any more to win any nine hole tourney. 

  If you do build better equipment, it would pay to crank up the winds and green speeds some, or people are going to be shooting the silly scores that were being posted on TWO before they shut it down. 

  On the other hand, I would like to see bunker play being more true to real life ... let us be able to put more spin on the ball out of the greenside bunkers. And we shouldn't be getting 30/40 and 40/50 bunker lies from balls that roll into the bunkers unless they're moving at about a hundred mph and bury themselves into an upslope. You usually only get lies like that in real life with shots that drop out of the sky into soft sand. 

  Not to mention uneven lies bunker lies ... they're just horrendous ...
