Why not allow the player to make his mistakes..?

    I love these threads.

    I have shares in two major tin-foil companies. Christmas bonus sorted.

    +1.

    It's amazing how many WGT players there are that perceive things that aren't actually there.

     I've never conducted an official study, but there does seem to be a correlation .. those who spend the least $$, also complain the loudest...lol

    Those who spend the least $$, are not welcomed here.

    I get that and I don't care any more. I don't care what my stats are either so don't bother going there.

    I've no idea why you picked one of my quotes to preface such an idiotic statement. This is a public forum, and everyone is welcome here. They also have the right to voice a rant, an opinion, a suggestion, or whatever. No one has ever said different ...except you. Accordingly, I won't dignify your comment, except to suggest that you read the entire thread...it may provide some clarity and context for your muddled thinking.

    Isn't that how it's supposed to be... The game should be set up, laid out and left alone..!

    I can actually predict how a round will pan out within my first 3 shots... Why is this..?

    Well, I have to say that I can't. In fact, even the first four holes haven't always been a good predictor of how my round will go.

    In the past few days, I've started out the front nine of St. Andrews at -2 through the first four holes (two birdies and two pars). One time, I ended up birding the remaining holes for a 29, and another time I birdied 5 through 8 and eagled 9 for a 28. There's no way that -2 for four holes would predict a 29 or a 28.

    And, as an aside, those were from the legend tees.

    I have had the same issues with shots, and with putts. Hit the dinger, and the shot is suppose to come off as planned, NOT. Hit the putt with perfect speed and break, and guess what, putt stops short of the hole and offline.

    Well, my grand total is $10 over 3 years. I use pretty good clubs but low quality balls. I don't get the results I could with $5 balls, but who cares? Not me; not the members at the greatest club on WGT. What's there to complain about? This is a fun game, amd that's all it is. If you don't enjoy it, I'm curious why you remain.

    I'm NOT wasting money on a game that is OBVIOUSLY rigged, why would I..?

    I'm not going to list all the little rigs and bugs but there's a good few...

    My 2nd shot into the green on the 1st and St Andrews was 34 yard, I know this shot, I know which club, I checked the wind, put on the amount of spin require and dinged it... The shot went 39 yards. I carried on thinking it must be playing longer today... Strangely enough i was playing St Andrews about an hour later and i had the 2nd into the green 38 yards... Ahh I thought, I'll just play my usual 34 yard shot and it will there or there abouts, I checked the wind spin etc and took my shot "ding"... Shot went 34 yards... and this has happened more than once on several courses...

    Similarly with putts, some don't even start out on the line I chose for the putt, and then it flicks through different screen shots, it's obvious it's going to miss, some are absolutely ridiculous...

    I'm sick of WGT, why can't they just leave the game at a level playing field, so the better player on the day wins, without their interference and tampering... I know they're only in it for the money but they're not getting any more from me... and the way they go about their business in this fashion is unethical...

    A guy i was playing an alternate shot game with was calling me all the names under the Sun, telling me how badly I played the game... I'm level, 93 Legend, not great but not bad and i don't deserve that kind of abuse... Not from him (my partner)- for calling me garbage nor by WGT by making my shots so ludicrously wayward and making me look like a fool..!

    if wgt cannot fix simple bugs in the system how could they possibly manipulate and control every aspect of the game for every player? it is not possible!

    I remain because this game is a joke and I like a good joke.
