  I'm new but have advanced to pro and now have $150 in earnings. What, if anything, can I do with that $150. Buy credits so I can upgrade equipment?

  The $150 figure is a mistake that will be corrected later on. Your earnings are $1.50, which is 150 credits, and you can, for example, upgrade your driver for them & buy a bunch of golf balls.

  John.. welcome to WGT ... glad to have you.

  Now, the credits are actually 50 for making Amatuer and 100 for making Pro.. your earnings should say $1.50 but someone borked the decimal place in the last update.  If you will look under 'account' over there <---------  you will see your actual credits.

  These credits can be used to buy more and better equipment... but I will tell you that 150 will not buy a lot of stuff.  A full set of new clubs will probably cost in the neighborhood of $20 to $25... that's 2000 - 2500 credits.  Golf balls can go for as little as 14 credits to 50 credits for a sleeve of 3.

  Hope this helps.. if you need anything else, ask away.. also, the search feature for the forums is a great help as well.

  Peace.
