    It's coming up to midnight in SF and no news on free rentals.

    What a shame, I was banking on it, as it would decide the fate of my versa putter, does it stay or get replaced by the Nike.

    Agreed John.. They might say they give free rentals once you level up for 2 hrs . But I didnt get a chance to look at RSi2s as I was already l92 at the time and they only unlock next level equipment.

    Another point about free rentals is that it hardly hurts WGT to offer it, and it really does help us to decide on changing equipment. But the amount they charge is disproportionate to the cost of the club. 700 credits is 20% of the value, whereas I can hire a 15 thousand pound car for less than 100 pounds per day.

    Yep, I was already past the level to try out the M1 Nike putter.  No way I'm paying that much rental fee and I will not buy it without trying it first.  Oh well, no sale, their loss.

    Well maybe the new Nike putter is not fixed yet, and they know people will rent it. So with it not working properly they decided not to have a free rental.

    Just guessing

    P. S. But then again they could have just pulled it off the shelf ,till it was fixed

    I would say quite improbable. How many players are over lvl 100? 500? 1000?

     

    Under lvl 100 there are thousands that they could try out all sort of upgrade (irons, putters, drivers).

    I will talk to the WGT team and see if we can get you a free rental day soon - personally i love trying all the gear.  

     

    Do you all like test the gear after you level up?  Was this a good update to the game?
