    It is programmed so that with the starter clubs it is just like a player just starting to play golf  for the first time with K-Mart or Wal-Mart junk clubs. I assume you didn't play great golf when you first started. You hit shots just like happens here with the starter clubs. And it is very realistic when you look at it that way. There a very few players who can play great golf on this game with the starters just like there are very very few players who can play great golf in real life when they first start out. And there are very very many like me who still struggle to break 80.

    Actually I am very thankful that WGT isn't as realistic as real golf or I would still be an 80 average pro or what ever tier an 80 average is instead of  a legend with an average under 62.

    The last 2 responses were super. I find this game plays like real golf if you cant get on the links again like myself.

       This game is fine just as it is. In fact, there are some aspects of it that should be harder.

    It's just a computer game and whilst the goal is to make it realistic it will always be restricted by the fact that it is not real. Once you come to terms with that fact you can enjoy it for what it is. There is plenty of scope within the game to improve and lower your scores. I can assure you although some shots wont be as good as real life most will be far better than any you have ever hit. Relax and enjoy it for what it is and don't stress about the things it is not. Fairways and greens pard, :-) .
