Second chance balls

  Been an avid golfer for many years, can I ask about the possibility of the implementation of second chance balls which are a big part of the game and would give those on a limited budget to level the playing field. They would obviously have a random durability level but of a playable condition. I've chatted with many players during play and everyone has said it would be a nice introduction to the game. I'm lucky that I can afford the new balls as regular as I want them, but I'd be rather conceited to not suggest something which is a big part of playing golf and if I was just out to swing a few irons, I'd always have a bagful on second chance balls.

  Hopefully others would like to see this introduced into the platform.

  WGT are in for profit, not love im afraid.

  Various posts from regulars on here answer that on various subject matters, this and other ball issues being one of the most .

  They will carry on implementing clubs throughout levels, for new folk to buy every 10 levels or so. Then they will have folk believe top balls are best.

  Now some top folks map and use WGT balls, if ball dont spin and hold, then they take the granny off and are happy with their halt and 3 yard roll up......its all in your mapping and either memory or note making......dont buy notepad use your own word document by the way.

  P.S The best player on here ive seen use Callys a lot (and thats not me by the way) ;-)
