Rental bug after level up.

  I play on kindle fire HD not sure if the bug is cross platform or just a kindle/Amazon problem.

  It's been happening since level two but here is an example.

  Just went from 30 to 31. 3 New clubs all level 31+ to rent.

  Some hybrid/big bertha driver/64 wedge.

  I wanted the wedge, pressed rent, sorry I don't meet that level. Thought ok, big bertha, again sorry I don't meet that level, last choice (first/left in the list) the hybrid, even though I don't use one and probably never will, rent and equip, went through fine.

  Looks like it just lets me rent the first in the list, unless that is a lower level than me, then I can get the 2nd if that's same level, or 3rd if first and second are lower.

  It's really annoying, especially the scenario above, where the club I didn't want, and never will, is the only one I could get.

  Cheers.

  Just went to level 38, 3 rental choices, im not high enough level for any of them, but I am 38 and clubs are 38.

  I can't afford to buy them anyway, but it would be nice to try them, instead of being stuck with coin MK 2 clubs all the time.

  Steven, if you look on website mate, near the bottom is some handy tips and guides.

  Stuff on their regarding club choices and other areas which will help etc etc

  Or even run a little question on general discussions part.......there will always be some help comes.

  One thing i would say now is, if its free rental fine, but if it starts to cost you then think of purchase.....you can get better than starter gear at low cost and keep it for a while.

  Bit by bit mate, but as say have a look on forum part of website.

  Cheers, but its a bug with the actual game.

  I go up a level say to level 38

  I get a choice of 3 free 2 hour rentals, driver, iron set, 3 wood, think they were all I25 all available at level 38, which I am.

  Click on one after the other to rent, sorry but you do not meet the level requirements.

  Very frustrating.

  I have 1000 wtg credits, but when one Cleveland wedge is 900+ never mind irons/woods and putters, I need to be very frugal with my credits, and not being able to rent the wedges to get 10% off stopped me from taking the plunge, so trying to hold off buying anything till I get into the mid 50`s for levels.

  I can totally understand your frustration, Trump. It happened to me a week or so ago. 
  
  Ever since I hit Level 35 I've been using the PING G25 iron set, and when it comes to upgrading my clubs, I have a set plan moving forward. And part of the plan was to get the Level 59 PING G25 irons once I got to that level.

  But lo and behold, I wasn't able to rent those irons when I hit Level 59, which also meant I wasn't able buy them at a discount. And that cost me $2.39 in real money (or 239 credits/nearly a sleeve of Callaway balls).  

  Just this morning I played a quick 18 holes and hit Level 64, which meant I was now awarded the opportunity to rent the NIke Vapor irons for that level. I wasn't able to rent those either, but I'm not going to complain about that because I don't want those clubs. I prefer the L59 PING's because of their high trajectory and slower meter speed. But if I wanted the Nike's, I would of saved 289 credits. I see in the pro shop I don't get the discount because I wasn't able to rent them. 
  
  Hopefully WGT will have this glitch fixed when it comes time for me to upgrade my wedges 15-25 levels from now.

  I am getting this at Level 6... I only started playing yesterday, but this makes me not really want to bother with the rest of the game if it happens from day 1..  I am getting locked out of club rentals that say lvl 6+  and I am a level 6. It happens every level up since level 3 for me.... Great way to make new players feel gipped.....
