    Yo Ace, you da man!
    I really don't understand why you chose a thread such as this to expose an apparent fragile ego , but , I will take this opportunity to make something very clear about women and the game of golf. From the class room and the junior leagues , from South Korea to Europe and the States, thru the Duramed Futures tour , to the LPGA we are here and here to stay whether you , your buddies and all your ego's like it or whether you don't. Period.

    That sounds to me like plain ol sarcasm to me and a bit of a fragile ego.

    Ok here's my take.

    I currently have about $75 in clubs that I play.  I have also bought every club almost every top of line club offered at some point totaling about $400 in 2.5 years.  I go through about 15 Legend Callaways a week totaling around $780 a year.

    2 months ago, WGT cuts all the decent prizes for monthly premiums and gives you credits if you win.  Win 8 months in a row and you can be the proud owner of a $250 gift card when we used to be able to win a $200 card in one month.  If you go back to summer 2009 you could win a set of irons and many other REALLY nice prizes.

    Now you want me to play the courses???????  I could understand if lower image quality was a means to a better meter, but no dice.  As bad on Cabo as any other course.  I bought a year membership on TWO for $24.99 giving me unlimited access to over 20 courses.  For the same amount of money I could play Cabo here for about 5 days max.

    Not sure who's driving the buggy out there in San Fran but I can say this, their license should be permanently revoked.  My hyperactive 5 year old can make better business decisions.  Wouldn't hurt my feelings a bit if this whole thing implodes and investors were left destitute.  At least then I could break my addiction to a product that we've all witnessed continually digress and devalue itself with every coming month.

    The beginning of the end or the end of the beginning.  It's your choice ,WGT. 

    Hire somebody who loves and understands golf so you can be reminded of the value that this game has, or had , for that matter.

    I played Cabo today and shot a 32 way to easy. I had an eagle and 2 chip ins from the fringe. It's cartoon golf...........no more money from me to play cartoon golf. I hope we are not going to get more of this.......:-((

    OK, i have had time to digest what has happened.    Here is my thoughts.

    1.   People wanted more courses at a faster rate.  This is a way of which this can be accomplished.   Maybe 6 or more courses per year.

    2.   A fee at which i know some have said they would be fine with, but was more along the lines of a monthly fee.   With that said maybe as more TruGOlf courses are released this may become option.   1000 cr. to play all courses per month or what have you.  Currently 100 cr per play seems steep.

    3.  Would like to see Priestess's suggestion come to light that the 100 cr.  would give you 24 hr access

    4.  Would like to see an option for a player to pay for 1 or all golfers in group or maybe an option for loser pays the fee.

    5.  Lastly, its an option, not everyone's cup of tee, and no one is forced to play.   You will get two new full HD stroke play courses rather soon (Congressional and Royal St. George) so be patient and stick to those if this is not what you want or need

    Cheers,

    b0gey

    You do know what forum you are complaining on , right? Who cares if you are here to stay, this is about the crappy decision WGT made. This is why people ignore women like you!!!!

    No doubt the powers that be at WGT must be a "little" concerned about the firestorm that has been created with their new alliance with TruGolf. The ball has been and always will be in their court. What they do with it from here on out, will shape the games future.

      Hopefully they will heed the advice of loyal top tier players such as Bollox,Priestess,Jake Stan etc. etc. and struggling Tour Pros like myself from time to time,and help preserve this beautiful unique game and keep it from imploding.

       I have a life outside this game, like most people here, and like most people here,i enjoy the time spent here....I truly hope this enjoyment isnt lost on WGT.
