    Just a random thought, but maybe WGT is behind this golf master (kind of like a WGT sting operation) and once downloaded or purchased or whatever, they know YOU, and YOU are booted. I know it's out there, but it is possible.

    I saw that and another video about 2 weeks ago (someone reported it then, also) on Youtube. The golf master barely made par using that crap. A remark was made by another player that they'd rather do it on their own and get a birdie, lol. I agree.

    The world and internet are filled with sad, worthless people. And, it is the same here (the people who use cheat software). A lot of players are simply not any good at this game, and have super-low self-esteem, and by using cheats, they make themselves feel better. The scum of the world will never go away, but in the end, they will get screwed, too. I believe in karma, and "people get what they deserve".

    I'd stop playing if I had to use any crap like that. What would be the enjoyment? Working your tail off to get $1,500.00 (or whatever it is) worth of credits that you could cash in for a $250.00 gift card? You'd spend close to 100-200 dollars on balls. I'm probably wrong, but that's how I see it, anyway.

    BTW, I finished 9th in my second ever UEL round. Week 33 18 hole @ Merion:-)

    And, I did it on my own, too!! 51 credits :-)

    Last go this thread - genuinely disgusted at this one.

    Just played a Cabo RG.  One WTF short approach and missed an eagle putt, and another slight missed ding approach, just missed that bird putt.  Now with that programme (looking at the video only) I would have been more aggressive with with the par 5 approach, and not missed the ding on the other.  In a moderate winds Cabo B9 RG my 29 would have been 27 with that programme - HUGE.  

    For most "competent" genuine players it is impossible to compete against another "competent" player using that programme - VERY SIMPLY leaves a bad shadow over the whole game.!

    LOL...

    This program has been on the VGG website for awhile now...when I saw weeks ago I was like WTF, I downloaded it to look at it just to see if it worked(really) to find out if all this practicing was a waste of time because some players just needed a software to beat me...

    it has a free trial then it is like $3 for a 1000 shots...

    WGT can't detect it because you set the timing like any other auto-click, it doesn't interact with WGT in any way...and while it may help newbies, if you have been here for awhile and it improves your game then you suck anyway, you will not hit the ding every time in fact you will miss by a lot more than you would without it most of the time, WGT has the meter racing through the hitting area, the occasional jump, all are counter measures for programs like this whether intentional or not...I'd rather pay $7 for the slower meter balls any day and I don't...

    Now could you make it work better, I'm sure you could if you wanted to map the timing on every course you play everyday as it changes from day to day...I'll pass! IMO, much ado about nothing for anyone other than new players..

     

     

    I would like to see WGT have the meter vary the time of a hesitation  at the top of the swing and give us a smooth consistent meter as it should be if we pay extra for slow meter balls instead of racing through the hitting zone ...I actually put a 3.0 meter ball in play once that was slower than the 3.5 meter ball through the hitting zone, that's BS...

    or maybe - more cynically - wgt is selling this thing - the ultimate if you can't beat em join em.  why let others profit from something they can as well? - now that's a fugly thought - sorry i had it - but......releasing putter and shot pals basically free(guaranteed to sell plenty of 37c xp tickets for their club to get em) may well be a response to other folks passing them out for free already?

    Did you ding the shot...if so then why would this programme help ?

    I would have fizzed the next club up in, and stopped dead.   WTFs happen though, but if it works (per the vid) it's huge.

    Interesting, and hope that's usually.

    i also keep reading posts from top players that hitting the ding isn't that important either.

    I don't see what the big deal is.. everyone already knew these things existed. The biggest reason some of us have trouble hitting the ding is all the counter-measures WGT already have in place.. such as the meter flying through the hitting zone or jerking like a dog crapping peach seeds.
