    Hi everyone:)

    Here are the release notes for this product update. I also want to state that it's not all of it as some features will be seen in a little while when we have a chance to go deeper with the details.

     

    We’ve made some improvements to Country Club tournaments, including the following…

     

    NEW GREEN SPEEDS – When your club reaches Club Level 7, you’ll unlock new green speeds to choose from for country club tournaments: Extremely Slow, Very Slow, Super Fast and Extremely Fast

     

    ADD TO PURSE – Now, if you create a country club tournament you’ll have the ability to “sweeten the pot” by adding your own Credits to the total purse for your club members to win

    This "add to purse", is it rake free?

    Is this to aid the multi-accounters in the transfer of credits?

    Will these new green speed rounds count for you average thus making it harder for the lower tiered player to advance?? We sure would not want to help them in any way!! Will these speeds also be played in WGT tournaments?

    Remember the  way the "WGT average" works.  Once saturated your average can only ever go down.

    As a TM I think that's 50 RRs until saturation (countin RRs played as a TM).  Once saturated you average is only an average of your best ever 50 RRs shot within the TM tier. Get to a 61 average with at least 50 counting RRs as a TM, then it's the car park tees and then it's 500 counting RRs again until saturation.

    So anything harder than the normal variance can't hurt a saturated average if it leads to a bad score.  I guess it is also not speeding things up either as it's time you could be spending playing, "normal" difficulties.   

    Personally I think the game is now screaming out for a new tier that people can aim for where all this fringe stuff is excluded from calcs, and all stats are rolling.............dream on:)  EDIT: Not knocking the fringe stuff, just the fact it's not much chop for stats for so many...Pointless having the stats as it is almost.

    Even though I am only L92, I was holding my breath for at least a L94 iron set that could close the gap between the R11s(yes, I know I can score with the R11s - lol) and the L97 and L100 Nikes. 

    I will bring extra oxygen supply for the next update =)

    Maybe you're talking about this from Upcoming Product Releases?

    I read the release notes, and as always look forward to what improvements have been made. 

    But, may I suggest at the bottom of the release notes, a section called bug fixes, where a list of the bugs also be made, what were addressed, etc.   IMO, that is just as important.
