Time to switch them up again

  Last Kiawah 18 Ready Go

  6 players with 55

  4 players with 56

  5 players with 57

   

  And yes switching them more often would prevent this, players get to know the current RG's like the back of their hand and the longer you leave them around the lower the scores get.

  I feel bad for the 4 guys that shot -14 and only get half their credits back.

  I know this is a dead horse post but not one time have I ever seen a legit answer from someone at WGT telling us why RG's can not be run one or two times at the most and then replace it with a totally different RG, You would  get way more people giving you money if you did this.

  Instead of monthly changes to RG's perhaps weekly would be better,with all the courses available you would think the deviation in  choices for Tee boxes,green speeds,hole locations and wind variation would be infinite but from month to month not much changes,would also be nice to know which Tee's are being used in advance,high winds seem to dominate the $300 plus credit RG's how about more low wind conditions,or even some NO wind tourneys...................

  They actually change them every 3 weeks on Saturdays. Sometimes, when there's a holiday or something special, this may stretch to 4 weeks, but that very rarely happens. Agreed though, 1 or 2 weeks is more than enough, you get sick of playing the same thing for 3 weeks running.

  Not fussed to know about which Tees we hit off,  except for a couple of courses, you basically know...lol

  Wgt has a huge liking for heavy winds lately with most of their comps. So I don't play em, because they are built for the people who like em.

  Low winds, off the Reds, any green speed...   I like to see that....lol

  There is a growing trend lately,  with quite a few top level people, that playing in low winds, off the shorter tees or anything like that, because thay are in a very high Tier, they think it's way past their thinking for them...lol

  Now saying that...  we will still see the same low scores shot by the same people and good luck to em

  -Roger

  Edit...   Here;s an Idea for Wgt...   how about starting a comp for People who only Twitches their games....  I know we have the Top 4 in the VT comp...  but how about a R/Go...  I like to see that too.....lol

  If wgt would get rid of the TL RG's they would have room for all the courses. Then they would only need to set the conditions to change randomly & boom, something different every day & a lot less work.
