I rarely make comment's here, but usually read this forum on a daily basis, but having read and in part re-read this thread fell that I have a few thought I'd like to write down.
MisterWGT and his partner created a wonderful child 10years ago...a rather precocious youngster, well ahead of their peers, they became extremely popular, and had literally millions of playmates.
Time went on, and mostly everyone had a really good time playing in MisterWGT house...Then small thing's began to go wrong, the toys become old, new old had to be provided, the playmates became demanding, wanting even more and more toy's to play with....Then some of the toy's developed flaw's, but it became difficult to mend them, and this could only be solved be a rich uncle helping out.
So here we are, the rich uncle and MisterWGT sat down together and decided that the rich uncle would adopt the child, and look after the child's upbringing, with some assistance from MisterWGT.
The rich uncle however wanted new toy's for the child and the playmates, so the games could be played on mobile phones and tablets, also he wanted his own toys played with too.....Not all the playmates were happy about these new toys, but even I who do not have any of these devises can see that progress will happen. He also wanted playmates to play a game he devised, and to visit the new homes he built so people could play there too.
Now having watched the video's MisterWGT provided of the rich uncles new homes, and spoken to others who have visited the rich uncle's premises, I seriously wonder who amongst the playmates will want to play such silly games.....One video show's groups of handsome and pretty couples prancing around smiling and laughing, reminds me of the TV ads for cruises/ holiday camps....another show's people using the driving range (which reminds me of a pin-ball machine)...unsure any of this relates to golf....It appears you cannot take your own irons to these driving ranges, to work on a few shots....so why would you go to hit the clowns hat off....
Thank you for reading my little story.
I would like to think this takeover will work well for us, people who I believe just want to play golf, it is, as you know, the nearest some of us will ever get to a real course, for a variety of reasons...
Have fun guy's....Just heard R&A have agreed to provide and hold the Crazy Golf Master at St Andrews next year....this will become the 5th Major.....Sponsor's name is being withheld ..........I just wonder if....
