    Not WGT's or anyone else's job to protect me from sharks. Plenty of sharks in all the challenge formats but they have stopped them. All  other game formats have a challenge option.

    If me and a friend of mine want to throw caution to the wind and jump into shark infested waters than that's our prerogative. We know the risks as well as understanding that you are putting your credits in the hands of your partner as well, as they could have a bad day or shot that costs you the match and your cred. Can't see this being a good thing for random alt shots, but if you have a handful of partners that are friends of yours and you play with frequently I don't  see there being a problem

    i do and always have liked the idea

    That is where my thinking was, since most my alt games are with randoms.

    I do agree with this though. Nothing stops us from agreeing to a sleeve each either.

    Thank you for your suggestion. The idea of betting sleeves of balls sounds interesting.

    i bet it does. if it was for starter balls you wouldnt find it interesting. why not for credits like match play challenge?

    LMAO - surely you are not insinuating that WGT would not do it if there was not a buck to be made!

    Yes it has been requested in the past and Icon for one was not keen on the idea - I have to agree with JS's post 100% - give us an option!

    DaddysKat & I kicked this idea around a while back until she injured her hand and it has gone no further. It would be interesting if two players could buddy-up and play others in a format not unlike the weekly games we have now but to play alt-shot stroke play as a team being able to enter and play on their own. A weekly team play event, if you will...
