    Unexpected Error

     

    There are probably a dozen more.   I do think that the realistic golf is correct in terms of how the courses look and play, however the balls and clubs have taken over.

    If you look at a good player, like me I'm close to 90% on drives in fairway and greens in regulation.     If you look at the PGA tour, the TOP player is at 78% fairways and 80% greens for 2015.   Go down to 10th place and those numbers go to 70% and 73%.   I'm not in the top 10 on WGT and yet I'm 10% higher than the best PGA pro.

    Putting is more telling.   Top tour putter is at 1.71, I didn't look but I would bet my putting is much lower than that.

    The key to making the play more realistic is making the clubs less accurate and the balls not as good.  Obviously WGT will have a difficult time doing that since the horse is already out of the barn with drivers that go 300 yards 95% of the time and irons that find a 10 foot circle around the pin 90% of the time.

    Think my irons are broken then.  ;-)

     

    Kidding,  it's me at fault 90% of the time.  I can't ding for shot lol.
