1. Distances suck, and out loud at that.
Why is it that I hit a damn ball perfect and it goes far less than what the club states it will? I have hit a hybrid, a 190 club, and hit it perfect for 99 yards. Jesus Christ on a bicycle that is far! Then at times the same club goes well over 200, and all this wind be damned it doesn't matter what mph or direction it is blowing. Forget the fact that no matter how low I get my average/handicap I hit like a damn sissy. Let's not even get into that. Just the fact that the clubs should either go what they say they do, consistantly, or rewrite what you actually allow them to go. Drivers should say 200, 3 Woods should be 180, Hybrids should say 165, and the rest should say ??? because that is what you get.
2. Slices and shanks.
I hit the ball perfect, on the screws, and the ball goes wide right or left no matter the adjustment or windage. Why is that? I could see if I hit it bad, or had bent my club, or even if I used the damned handle, but perfect shots? Come on and get with the program.
3. Putting consistancy.
The ball sets at 30 feet from the cup. No break and flat as glass, yet the ball will waver and go a direction opposite of the cup. Yes I hit the ball perfect. And God forbid there is a break. Adjust as I might the ball does what it wants and I am screwed out of a Birdie many a time, and too many a time at that.
4. Greens.
If they are slow then why is it the ball runs like a thief? I have been playing the back 9 tourney at Kiawah and it says the greens are slow, yet the ball goes much farther than it says by the way of slow. Backspin be damned here too. The ball will still roll like it is going downhill even if the green is an uphill slope. If that is slow, then I would hate to see what you all call fast.
These are just a few things that kill me in the game, and I rather not go into the rest. All I know is at times I can tee off with a putter, chip with my 3 iron, and putt with any damn club I like and still be as consistant as the game allows playing as I should with the right clubs in the right scenarios. Garbage and though I send report after report ingame it seems nothing is done about it. I could care less if this is Beta or not. Someone is getting paid to do a job, and no matter what that pay is they should do it and fix these problems. New damn courses are not what we ask for, but that is what we get in place of the problems fixed. Why do we want to play a new course with garbage bugs? Fix the problems and to hell with the new courses and clubs until you fix the problems.
And to all the jackasses who are playing fine or have little to no problems...blow off. This thread is obviously not your soundboard. You are having little to no problems and that is good, but a lot of us are and it is not due to bad playing or ignorance. I have played over 100 ranked rounds and countless practice rounds and have these same problems over and over. New clubs are not the answer and I will be damned if I pay money just to have the same garbage. The problems get fixed and I will ante up for new gear. Until then no, and I will not leave but stay and fight until the problems are fixed. There is no sense in this and something should be done.
