  Pretty good list.

  Couple of bits of feedback:

  1. Wouldn't do a 50Cr 18 hole. Would keep the 50 Cr to 9 holes. They are marginal from a ball use perspective with 9 holes, at 18 holes makes little sense.

  2. Also on the 50 Cr i would try and include a tru golf course. 50 cr is a small buy in and gives much more people a reason to drop the creds to play 9 holes of those courses, knowing they might get something back, rather than drop whatever it costs just to play them and get nothing out of it

  3. Noticed you went with tee placements. Problem is, with open tier events you really can't dictate tee. Or I don't think you can. I think on open tier events everyone plays from their tees, so if you set the tee box it gives people with better equipment/level/tier an advantage. I think the tee boxes can only be messed with in tiered events, but that is a waste at TL level as no one signs up. Not a bad idea, but just not sure it is possible

  4. I think , from what i have read, people might want a few more 9 holers. There are 6 or so on your list. Maybe a couple higher stakes 9 holers would be nice. Like a  300 or 400 and maybe even a 500.

  All and all a good list. Something for most everyone. Really comes down to the lists to follow and keeping things fresh.

  Well Done. Just my 2 cents

  Gr8 effort Chris, good variety.      Also like #2 & #4 above, for me the more 50c 9 holers, the better.

  You can change the tee positions for ready go's.  Plenty of times we as tour legends have played off pro tees at Cabo or master tees at St Andrews

  I'm sorry Corwyn, but the Uneven Lie ready go's are DEAD WOOD.  They only turn over once or twice a WEEK.  The only uneven lie which turned over three times in a week was the 50c one.  ready go's should be turning over at least once a day, once a week is ridiculous and should be taken down.  Yes keep one or 2 but any more are just dead rubber. I counted 5 uneven lie ready go a minute ago.  WGT should bite the bullet and get rid of 3 of them.

  The tour legend ready go's should be halved as well, 10 is way too much, as was mentioned they don't fill up so 5 would be more than enough

  This is why I rarely play the TL RGs. You don't know the tees going in, but it's frustrating when you lose money shooting -18.
