  I've been on WGT for years and I can't believe you guys still haven't installed a practice green so we can get better at our short game and our putting. It sucks having to play an entire un-ranked game only to get such practice on a very limited basis when reaching the green 18 times. Are you trying to suggest that there are no practice greens at any of the courses here? I have no doubt there's one at EVERY course! C'mon guys, get it together please. I don't think this is an unreasonable request at all.

  You can make any green a practice green by using the mulligan feature during a practice round.

  Just be aware that using a mulligan uses up 2 hits on your ball.

  Practice greens and driving range have been demanded umpteen times over the years. Once Icon replied that the game would become too easy, thus they are not in consideration.

  Furthermore, they would certainly cost an entry fee...

  Be aware that Starter balls behave the same than any balls on the greens and have unlimited hits - mulligans for free ;)

  Your account is 6 years old but you are only L46 Tour Pro . Your last round played was 12/9/2015 and you only have 131 ranked rounds played . So why do you need a practice green since you even seldom play . I see that you are in a good CC which you dont deserve to be in . But the club owner is too busy to see your inactive play .

  You havent put your time in so you dont have the right to complain about whats not here . You dont participate nor do you contribute so why do you complain . You want to practice then use the CTTH and Best of Par 3s for your irons and wedges and play stroke play practice rounds for everything else . Everyone else plays and gets better using the courses that are provided so why cant you ? You dont need a practice green you just need to put your time in .

  Re Mulligans on the greens:

  Unless WGT secretly updated the game last night the "Mulligan" feature is useless on the greens! As of yesterday, when you use it on the greens, the "dots" are messed up - i.e. they only show vertical dot movement - not both vertical and horizontal - so you cannot "reread" the slope.

  P.S. This has been the case for (at least) 2 months.  LMAO when I griped it 6 weeks ago, they said "we will look into it." and then, 2 days later, asked me how well I liked "Customer Service's" response to my complaint!!
