  Wowsa - I have not played in two weeks here, not because of a boycott, just away on business and my Win8 tablet plays this game for "you know what" so it just isn't fun. 

  But, and it is a BIG BUT, again I would like to be a fly on the wall of the WGT strategy meetings to see just how they come up with these things. In a period of so much angst against this game's bugs and cheating problem, their big update is another money grab that as others points out, lends itself to making the game LESS realistic and LESS credible? 

  I did not visit the pro shop to see the L90 driver, but if it is an upgrade for us lower level legends, kudos to that. We all would really like an R11 type set with .5 slower meter though - I guess we can just keep wishing. 

  One question though to WGT, if you implement the "paid cheating focus" option to ranked or credit play, am I guaranteed that VEM is turned off during that shot? lol

  Yep,the whole "get rid of auto caddy" thing was about putting.

  Another boost of any sort is idiotic.(see pros/tour pros with 75+ averages)

  New driver and 3 wood........nothing special at all.

  What's the point of another ctth......

  .............bored

  Another CTTH course....it's the way every US Open course is released. 1 month f9, next month b9, then the full 18 for stroke play.

  Love the disable Caddy feature!

  Focus Boost is the most ridiculous thing they have come out with yet.

  I saw this feature requested several times.  It actually makes sense if you think about it as club testing:  You are renting time on an Iron Byron swing machine.  Now you can test various shots in practice mode and hit exactly where you want on the meter without having to use mulligan after mulligan.  I'd pay 100 credits to get it for an hour, but it really should only be for solo practice.  As currently priced, it is useless.

  New Hits counter for "Rocks"

  

  So what happens when it runs out ... do you put in a premium ball that is in my bag?

  That boost is only available in practice mode and there is no use there for it at all, because if you fail your shot in practice mode, you simply use a mulligan, dont you? lmao

  Oh man, have you tried the Auto-Play Boost?  I won't use it off the tee as the little guy loses too much distance, but on or around the green its priceless for just one credit per shot!
