        Seems like 75% of every tier was hurt by the changes IMO. Every group that doesn't have the clubs to match the tee's have no chance except the top players in all tier's. Which of those most have the best equipment and are lucky they have it. I haven't a clue why they wouldn't allow anyone to club up in the next level.

    I think everyone is scratching their head over that one.

    WGTadmin2 wrote a post after the update explaining the pro shop would be open for a short while. I bought all the Ping i15 clubs (with survey credits) I could use. Now if I could only read the greens better, I'd be in there.

    Excellent point Blue.  WGT has created the Haves and Have-Nots groups within each tier thus reducing the even competition within tiers WGT hoped for.  The top players in each tier (the Haves) will tend to stay there (sandbag) while they level up to the next best equipment. Especially when there's a tee change with the tier promotion..like TP to Master where you need a level 58 G10 or level 62 R9 to be competitive at Master and you started in TP at level 20.

    There's a fairly large percentage (~40%) of Masters in the level 25 to 35 range playing from the blue tees.  And needing to increase their levels by 23-33 to buy a level 58 driver needed to be competitive.  Its really out of whack.

    WGT should look again at where players are with respect to tees/tiers vs equipment available via experience level.  In many cases it doesn't make any sense.

    I don't know why you believe I'm a kid, ................

    ......You got weird ways Andy, it must be your old age. Creepy!

    heh,...You behave like a kid on the forums.  You should try that last Metamucil product Richy, you're so full of crap.

    You want to know what is creepy?

    One week you're a WGT a$$ kisser defending their decisions calling me and others WGT haters for being critical.

    The next week you're the hyper-critical WGT hater calling people who disagree with you WGT a$$ kissers and telling them to STFU. 

    Yet you say you personally don't have any issues with the game. 

    THAT's creepy Dick.

    The original thought was about Legend drivers.

    My take is this.....we have been put back on tees that average 30 to 60 yards longer than the other players.  I don't want a driver that goes 50 yards longer, I want to be able to make it fair, give us something that gets us 20 yards longer and I'm happy.  The tees at Kiawah and St Andrews have too much difference between a Master and Legend, some of them are almost 100 yards longer.  I can compete with any of these folks from the same tees, I can beat most of them so I have no problem being moved back but make it fair to all including the Legends.

    Hey old man Andy, I never called you or anyone else a WGT hater. You're more senile then I thought. You misconstrue everything you don't want to hear. Typical senior behavior. You aren't having TIA's are you?

    People can change their opinions of things you know. You seem to have lost that ability with getting old and all.  lol!!

    andyson:
    Dick.

    Is that a homosexual reference to me old man Andy? I'm sure that goes against WGT's Terms & Conditions.

    See old man Andy how you're a hypocrite. It's ok for you and others to have a critical opinion of WGT one week, and then kiss their butts the next week when I become critical of WGT. You see where your senility shows?

    You don't remember making this post??

    Richard4168:
    Andyson, I'm guilty of nothing. You and the other anti-WGT, hypocritical  crowd who come to the defense of this forum abuser are.

    I'm compiling a list of all the anti-WGT people and submitting it to WGT so they can keep an eye on the stench that is polluting these forums. I'm also calling for WGT to conduct an in-depth investigation into that anti-WGT web site, WGTLS and it's creators. 

    If you WGT haters don't like the way WGT conducts their business, runs their company, or operates this game, then don't play it. Don't even login. I'm getting sick and tired of all the anti-WGT, hypocritical haters of this game continually abuse WGT, their members, and this game in the forums. If that's all you people have to say, then STFU!

    Sorry for you Richy but you did say it.  No need for me to go further.  It makes the rest of your post moot.

    What's up with all the elder abuse, homophobia and other tiresome insults?

    If your name's Richard, just say, "My name is Richard," and leave it at that.

    Enough already!

    Hey old man Andy, I don't know what your beef is with me. or what you mean by posting what I said, but you're a hypocrite big time and there's no denying that.
