Sorry couldn't think of a more suitable title for this post.
Anyway. I was playing a Skins game today at St Andrews and we got to Hole 4 (Ginger Beer) and one of the guys I was playing against decided to opt to play down the left-hand side of the course to avoid risking the brush in a heavy sidewind.
Fair enough.
But I was surprised that much of that close fairway is unplayable! It doesn't show it on the minimap but if you land on a stretch of fairway that it is near the bottom three bunkers, there's a good chance WGT will put your ball 'Out of Bounds'
I went and tested it in 'practice' mode and sure enough a fair stretch of fairway is 'Out of Bounds'. The parameters have been set wrong by WGT. I went and checked the official site for St Andrews and it IS playable down that side, so WGT have got it wrong.
I hope this will change soon as the poor chap I was playing against took a perfectly good shot which stopped cleanly on the fairway having narrowly avoided the bunkers only to be penalized with an incorrect call on his ball. I know it's just a programming mistake but it would be nice to get this fixed. Thanks.
