  Good morning all. Here are the notes from the downtime:

   

  • Odyssey Tank Cruiser Putter – The new Tank Cruiser V-Line Putter from Odyssey is a great choice to give you solid putting performance with more balance and forgiveness, helping you sink more putts and lower your scores. Unlocks at Levels 13, 47 and 74 in the WGT Pro Shop.
  • Country Club Improvements – We’re continuing to work on making WGT Country Clubs even better communities, with options for new players to find and join a club that’s right for them, and letting club owners control who can create CC tournaments for their club.
  • New Game Sounds – Keep your ears open for new game sounds in stroke play games, giving you feedback like cheering you on, providing some applause or maybe even some taunting to keep you sharp! Note, you can always choose to turn these sounds on or off in your Game Settings under “Celebrations.”

   

  Fixed Issues

   

  • 3-Click Swing Meter – Fixed a display issue where the power bar didn’t draw back on the first click for players using the 3-Click Swing Meter
  • Practice Swing Issue – Fixed an issue affecting some players taking practice swings that didn’t allow them to adjust shot type, club or aim
  • Flashing Ball Issue – Fixed a display issue that made the ball appear to be “flashing” before a hit

  I think the  "On the dancefloor ! "   commenatry is unnecessary.     Though I did laugh,  on my first approach today.

  Not to appear ungrateful, but of all the things that NEED fixing, WGT and more celebrations sounds.....seriously?  

  Soon there will be nothing left to celebrate.  No wonder I'm on my way out.

  Indeed, all it has is 0.5 more precision.  Against this it has 1.0 less balance and 0.5 less forgiveness.

  Strange since it was introduced with "The new Tank Cruiser V-Line Putter from Odyssey is a great choice to give you solid putting performance with more balance and forgiveness, helping you sink more putts and lower your scores."
