  I play quite a bit (albeit progressing slowly), and I'd love to see some new pin positions - any chance that's in the works? I suspect I've progressed to where I am because I get used to the breaks on the current pins, but I think it would be interesting to have a couple more to choose from. Thx!

  There was talk of Kiawah getting new pins but I dunno if it fizzled out or what. I believe it used to be listed in the coming soon or longterm outlook section. With putting so much a part of this game new pins can add challenge without all the xtra pictures a new course would need. On Oakmont would be nice too or just to come out with two placements on every hole of new courses they come out with.

  The pace of change in this game really can test patience. 4 courses available for stroke play. 4...Little less than one a year.(not sure when WGT started-but i"ve been here 2 years and have seen 2 new ones.) It takes almost as long to get a course on WGT as is does to really build the course.  Whose kidding who ? I know how long it took to film Kiawah because I was there.

  its all about priorities ..pleated pants are far more urgent and will be higher up the to do list than anything trivial like new pins and/or courses

  Henry it's like the guy with only 26 ranked rounds and all of them just 9 hole rounds crying for more courses because he was getting tired of playing the same 4 all the time. I told him play all the courses full and learn to play them well before crying for more courses.

  Well said and i agree . I join WGT not long ago ( about 5 months ) but i do play a lot of rounds both in ranks and practices in CC . As a Tour Master  i could shoot consistent in mid 60s in all 4 courses but I'm still scratching my head a lot of time , wonder how the hell did i miss that 3ft putt like STA 2nd hole (back pin ) ? this game is all about learning and adjustment and every-time you play it , it will be just like new course because it is as unpredictable as womans . When you look at the leader-board in R&G , you will see alot of Legends WD .
