  I wish for some new gear this year, something for  the the 90+ players can use.

    We don't need multi color lvl 1 drivers or balls.

  A gap that wgt can make a profit of is there for a taking ! 

  90 to 97 is a huge gap, a 93-94 iron set and you will get almost everyone buying it ! 

  and a sale on the upper drivers too !! 

  I am in  need of new gear and got  money to burn !!!

  Siggi lvl 93 and 1 year away from buying anything new !!! 

  pls wgt santa let me buy something new :)

  I don't like being negative so much about what is still fundamentally a marvelous platform, but where  people like you are  left in the cold it's hard not to be.  I hope they something soon for genuine people like you.  Heck have an offer, and charge the extra few grabbing $s for the benefit of higher level gear.  

  This is away from the how much difference does it make argument, it's just ridiculous to ask genuine players to wait a year before they are allowed to buy.  

  So many ideas how they could do it and not give the shop away, but the companies interest is fixated on fast $s lower down.  Long term regulars are too few for any business plan.

  Hope they do something for you.

  I`m in the same boat as siqqipt76, I`m at L-93 and can`t get that R1 Driver for the black Tees. Having to wait until L-98 for the R1 or L-96 for the Big Bertha is tough. I think clubs like these should open up when you hit Legend and the Blacks. Forget the L-100 Nike, I`m already going to have either the BB or R1 long before that becomes available. 

  I just feel it holds us back from continuing our progress to improve. In the real golf world, you don`t have to wait to buy the best equipment. As siqqipi said, We need alternatives on clubs and i`ll add a cheaper Nike Level ball to that list as well.

  I feel ya !!

  I am playing alts against friends that out shoot me 10 yards.

  I am starting -10 on most ready goes.

  wgt said that the r1 93 was a special offer ???

  I thought this was a game and wgt was in control of  giving a Driver a  level !!

  The top clubs should open up as soon as you hit Legend. At least bring the R1 back to L-93 with a Legend requirement. I have TP`s in my club that are L-93, a lot of P-4`s would be reachable.

  I thought that once , but too many multi fluffygrens accounts  could get there with the bug.

  Level 93 r1 driver that is the big difference ! 

  I am playing ready goes against odds !  

  I don't auto ding , I don't slow meter things ! 

  I just would love a level playing field. 

  betting wise , I should get odds ! 

  p.s  I love the rg's . it is making me a better player 

  Thank god and bless you all.

  Dear Santa

  Please give us iron sets with high trajectory and spin 3 or better at arround level 30. It is a long way for all the talented newbies in my CC till they reach level 59. All that never ending rolling on the greens would end much earlier then, Mr Claus, and that would make a lot of kids very happy.

  know how you feel siggi as a fellow 93 level player,   back from 6 months  hospital leave, 3,levels to Go And l can then purchase the  BB Driver, it is fustrateing haveing the cash and not being able to buy, my own Personal opinion is once you hit the Legend Tier then all Pro shop Equipment  unlocks  to you.
