  That is the question......

  Are WGT soon to be awarding anything for higher level clubs ?

  I ask because after shot/putter pal and 20 comps, i see no need to chase XPs

  Yes, use free one and it gives owners a clue to activity from members, but if activity means playing WGT but not a single club comp........then kep them. IMO.

  How often you see "use free pass for XP easy tee" comps. Those just building xp and playing those to lower average are crazy. Cant be bothered to look but in Finnys matchplay, how many Ls and above from these xp chasing clubs are playing in that........not many i bet!

  Shot/putter pal at level 4 is good and will be saving members who play 4 or 5 rounds a day quite a bit in the long run, so how about a free notepad or free avatar for level ? and above.

  Sounds expensive but it works out cheaper than shot/putter.

  P.S I have a notepad if anyone wants it, cant be assed using it, but someone will.

  The current setting shows their dedication to CCs:

  - the only two gifts of real value in low levels: Putter Pal and Shot Pal.

  - no rewards for L14,

  - no rewards from L17 up.

  And, what more to expect? More tournaments?  More %%?  More Directors?  More members???

  Nope - me thinks that this project has been finalised, excluding awards of worth as good as they could. Now only the Clashes are active, same old every two weeks, only prizes of no worth awarded. I include the Golden Calf here.

  'twas brilliant marketing IMHO, making CCs more expensive, giving mostly worth-less items in return to worthy credits for CC passes (and balls). The ongoing hype for "top placing" as a CC shows the success - for them!
