Cheating program

  Which clown is responsible for programming the accuracy of hits?

  I am sick fed up playing a game where I am going well then the game just decides to skew shots off my club head into rough, bunkers and worse.

  Bethpage is a joke and designed to be playable only by these who have discovered how to cheat, distances to the hole, club hitting and green speed don’t count on this course.

  When someone has paid for clubs, balls and credits I expect a far more evenly playable game, get these who are cheating out of the game and make it a more skill based game for us all.

  A tough course is not one that forces you into rough or bunkers no matter how well hit or what club you play, that type of course is just garbage and unfair. A tough course is one that rewards skill (on a regular basis) not blind luck or cheating.

  Fix Bethpage and get rid of the cheats.

  Also I am a scot and not alone in wishing this, please can we have a saltire as our national flag and nationality?

  i agree there are some random shots out there but before accusing people of cheating its better to play more rounds than the 77 you have played to see how you can improve and shoot better scores. i can only speak for myself when i say this because these accusations are prickly in my ears - when i shoot 30 at bethpage f9 will i be accused of cheating? its a tough course but anyone can play well there if you play enough. i was in your position when i had the same amount of games - then i played more and things improve. sure there are days when i cant sink a putt or put an approach to 20 feet of the hole but you get that with golf. its been said before a lot of times - play more and you get better :)

  I don't like the cheating accusations either but to each his own. I do agree that you should have your flag. Hopefully WGT will correct this or give reason why they won't.

  The clubs I have are as good as I can buy and the balls in use are the best I can get, even when I hit the shot perfect, BP is just too tough a course yet I see hacks and am's score rounds in the 60's with lesser clubs and balls. If it was just about being more experienced and better I would see the point but the freak shots always seem to appear when I am doing well.

  I apologise for naming all who score well cheats that was just anger after another good round was ruined by freak shots that cost me two balls and three holes, there are however clearly cheats active in the game, hacks hitting very low 60's and many other examples.

  BP is not a tough course it is an unfair course, even the toughest courses reward well hit shots for every level that is the beauty of golf making the game playable by all levels of golfer.

  I disagree fotd, Bethpage plays just fine. You'll have to play more than 77 ranked rounds to figure-out how to manage that course. Play a random 3 hole practice round from the black-tees and see how hard it is. 

  I do agree with you on the Saltire.

  Sir, if its mostly a matter of having your country's flag. Why don't you just ask?

  I'm sure WGT is aware of Scotland being an independent nation!

  But please do not blindly accuse people. "Evenly playable for people who have the equipment"... what a joke. I have decent equipment and am still rubbish.

  You know just the other day when I spent all that money on clubs at my local pro shop I told the guy there the same thing. I mean I am spending a lot of money here and with these new clubs I expected to play just like the pro's.

  end sarcasm!

  It's called practice, practice and more practice.
