    example3:

    Has anyone else noticed that WGT filters honest negative opinions about products and clubs? I recently purchased an Anser 2 putter level 75, and I hate the putter, I purchased the club based on player reviews posted. I tried submitting my own truthful negative review over a week ago, but it was not selected, and not posted. 

    It is UNFAIR WGT to hide honest reviews about your products. Change this policy.

     

    Example 3.

     

    I see your point about negative reviews not being posted and I understand why WGT will NEVER post them.

    However, the larger truth is this. Your inability to putt does not a bad putter make.

    Why would you buy a putter with 2 forgiveness with all the choice you had ? for 450 more credits the Nike is there with 4 forgiveness.

    And don't just read the reviews..check out the reviewers...

    Jumpmybones: a L78 Tour pro who's gone back to his L44 Redwood ( another dog of a putter that's passed through my hands)

    Mystiffwood: a Legend who struggles to shoot -5 consistently with dire stats.

    abtsh: Master, 70+ ave, 1,99 pph and 22% 1 putts !!!!!

    Mgolfer2: who's fooked off elsewhere.. :-)

    Fairground11: on the face of it looks a good player but the 1.61 putts per hole and 40% one putt tells a different story. IE the putter ain't working too well or he can't putt ? Either way the review should be discounted.

    Next time just ask here or check out what the top players in your tier are using.

    You might get used to it if you off ding, so good luck with it anyway.

    These two lines ^^^^^ are spot on.  In addition, you should know your game by now...check the specs of the equipment and balls and select accordingly...renting first might also be an option.

    i am an off ding putter so 2 dots of forgiveness works better for me than a 4 dots of forgiveness putter does.

     

    before i got that putter i was about 1,72 putts per hole and a 1 putt percentage of about 32

    so even though my putting stats are nowhere near what i would like they are moving in the right direction

    but for move the aim arrow and hit the ding people i would recommend a putter with more forgiveness

    I have used almost every piece of equipment WGT has to offer.   For me, it comes down to preference.   Some equipment that is rated higher just did not work well for me.  Better clubs for instance, may not do as well in wind.   As always, the more you practice with the newly acquired equipment the better they seem to work for you.    I never like new equipment when I first purchase but after a month - I may fall in love with it.    If you are short of credits, you may want to rent first - don't make a decision on the equipment until  you have a week getting used to it - if  you love it, BUY IT!   WGT tries their best to make this the best "gosh darn" website.  If you have a concern, let them know.  They are usually pretty good at getting back to people and notifying their engineers in the event improvements can be made.  So far - so good WGT.   I can hardly wait to see what WGT has in store for us in the future.

    I have found you can't go wrong with a starter ball. They seem to last forever. I have never lost one and they work as well as any I have played. But then, I don't play that well.

    Thank you for  your input about starter balls Rich, however, I totally reject your comment because starter balls do not have the distance and definitely not the amount of back spin, that I have grown accustom to.  

    If  you want to be the best, pay for great balls.  My balls are the best!

    What's really telling about these posts are that there are NO RESPONSES from any of the world glitch tour (wgt) staff...

    Congrats for posting in another subforum, even though responding to a post several years old!

    You do realize he was being sarcastic and mostly truthful regarding durability and not "losing them".
