    Sometimes I think you work for WGT Sting as your always defending them ! Not rolling in $$$$$ ??

    Ex.    if 1,000 players buy $2.50 Cally's that equals $2500

    Most very good players buy the $5 or $6 Nikes, 3 balls don't last long and there is more than 1,000 playing and that's just the Golf Ball, so they are buying 2 sleeves to last a Month, then throw in equipment !!

    Don't be an Idiot, WGT IS MAKING MONEY !!!

    Wrong, I spend around 3000 credits a week on balls, but haven't spent a dime in 3 years. However, those credits could've been bought by other people, or paid for with their time (surveys, etc.).

    These are better credits for the company, that is more credits!

    1,000 credits won are 1,250 credits spent - the rake goes direttissima to our hosts.

    And all of you who spend $2 to $6 or more on balls and God knows how much more on equipment.  STOP!!!

    Why? I'm not spending any money on them and I get the most enjoyment out of 7$ a sleeve balls.

    tommyb4:
    What have they given us recently?

    Erm, how about a game that is fun to play? To me, that's more than enough.

    tommyb4:
    Withholding money from a company always brings change.  It has been this way for centuries.

    Nope, it usually brings bankruptcy.  And a loss of a fun platform for a lot of people to meet.

    People, who no longer enjoy this game, either quit or moan. You seem to choose the latter. Of course, you have every right to your own views. And I have the right to think they're stupid.

    tommyb4:
    WGT is just stealing from us

    Please elaborate......last time I remember I voluntarily paid to allow me to play with better equipment.....and that was my choice.

    By all means stop spending (talking about everyone) the game stops........simple as that....something you obviously have not thought about, but to be honest, thought processing is obviously not your strong point.

    tommyb4:
    I've been playing since June of 2011.  I don't want to even guess how many salaries I've paid for their personnel since then.

    HA HA HA, now take it back.....ZERO thought or you are delusional if you think you have spent enough to pay anyone......it is 2016 not 1916. 

    Whilst I would like to more courses,  this is a very expensive exercise and as a business (yes WGT is a business) this needs to be done in a risk free manner.

    Your thought process and misunderstanding of monetary value is seriously flawed. Go read business for dummies and learn about the economics of running a business, or better still, put in an offer to Top Golf to buy this business......by your reasoning, a few hundred bucks might seal the deal.

    Wgt has empty pockets, and will drag this on to sep-dec. This year ?

    I hope I am wrong?

    No new gear ? again big companys not paying for them ?

    Wgt is in  money trouble.

    I can see no other logical explanation.

    Of course they are in deep money trouble, why do you think they have a Clash every 2 weeks, to suck money out of as many players as they can......J
