  some of the prices are definetly over priced for example u gotta pay 800 credits for a nice avatar which is way way wya over priced i think 500 credits would be a decent price for the 800 credit avatars to come down to. Also u gotta pay an dextra 200 credits to get from 275 r9 to the 278 supertri the only thing is does is give u 3 extra yards complete waste unless ur a legend for 3 yards difference between those clubs it should only be 50 credit difference or 100. Another thing is the ping i15 irons and driver ,the driver u are paying very close to teh supertris price for less distance,now teh i15 irons u gotta pay really close to 2000 credits for em when u only have to pay 1200 for teh g10 master irons and ur only getting a half a dot of precison more and 5 yards more from the i15 u should either lower the price of em or put some more stats on em like a little more forgivness.

  Jordan... in the real world do you set prices on everything you'd like to buy?  Do you always set them lower?  What if something is an awesome value, outperforms and outlasts everything in its category... do you set a higher price?  I didn't think so.

  Some of the wedges have strange prices. A satin wedge that hits 90 yards is 345 credits, but one that hits 93 yards is only 200. Identical clubs otherwise.

  The 345 credit wedge is the old master wedge. They have the same attributes but it stops the ball quicker and gets more spin when you ding it.

  HAHA okay buddy.  maybe you have the money to give to a computer game.  are u kidding?  this is ridiculously over priced considering the amount of ppl who invest in wgt...  such a cash grab.

  Im a university student who enjoys playing this game but cant afford to put 30 dollars in every time i want to buy equipment.  Jordan is not cheap he is realistic.  This is a computer game not real golf pal.  dont kid ur self.

  It's entertainment, and if you so choose to play this game cam be absolutely free.   And they say "Nothing in Life is Free"..........Enjoy!

  Doesnt have to be free.... prices can be reduced.  its simple.  Based on the amount of money they make off of advertising, i do not believe WGT is struggling and needs atleast $30 from every player.  I feel purchasing a set of clubs should cost $10 or they should offer other ways to earn credits.  For instance, ways you do not need a credit card to play the game.  (ex surveys that work.)

  And b0gey, yes i understand what you mean, but whoever puts the most money into this game can easily be one of the best players...  choosing the right club on shots really isnt that difficult, if you have the right clubs.  I can admit i am almost addicted to this game, but what bugs me is that i can not get any better bc i dont want to put more money in.  but if i slide in another 35 dollars i can become a legend.  and so can anyone else.

  That is your opinion and that is fine, but it takes more then the equipment to be good at this game.   It takes time and commitment.  

  Why don't you slide in another $35 and see if you can become a legend and be one of the best players.

  Nonsense. I could buy every item in the pro shop and I still wouldn't be any better. I've reached the limit for me, but I can still enjoy the game.
