  Wontonamo:

  all I found so far is this : WGT Premier Membership

  At 18,000cr....what a deal

  I assume free green fees is for the two TruGolf courses - I assume they will not introduce green fees at the other "free" courses. 

  Play Cabo (18 holes) 300 times and you have recouped ya dosh......what an incredible deal....

  The rest are pointless IMO. The kiddies in the marketing department strike again....or trying to scam really stupid people.....

  As per the blurb....

  Double XP for all games played (including country club XP when using a pass)

  Carry up to 4 country club passes at a time

  4-hour country club pass generation

  48-hour rentals for clubs

  Free green fees (WGT.com)

  A free daily scratcher (WGT Golf Mobile)

  Lasts for 12 months

  EDIT: To be a bit serious for a moment........I do see a market for those passes..Without doing the math maybe some "heavy users" might "save" some money in certain "events"........

  As for levelling CCs up please go carefully WGT  I was always taught, "SMART"

  Sensible, measurable, achievable, realistic time frames.......Or watch it flop, and no one wants to see New Ideas achieve that.

  The "never show again" button seems to be working now on the annoying CC Benefits pop up window. Yay. Good riddance.

  18,000 credits for 12 months?  Are these people insane?  There are real golf courses where that would buy a years membership.

  Holy crap WGT, this is just stupid.

  Head.  Butt.  Remove from.

  If only it was just stupid... It's so far beyond and outside of stupid it's hard to fathom. You gotta wonder who comes up with this ***.

   

  I mean seriously, it's all but too obvious they really do just try and come up with the most offensively crass and exploitive idea's with respect to gouging and generally just flat out putting it out there in plain language;

  "We here believe as a group you (the players) are the most gullible customer base around and you will suck up anything we through out, no matter how idiotic - You will always pay for it"

  "Dupes, one and all..."

  
  

  Props to them, it keeps working, they sure know their demographic that's for sure.

  Play Oakmont for 100 credits!

  Don't think so. Oakmont is steeped in the history and tradition of golf and simply wanted nothing to do with being associated with a circus version of the game, which is what the new owners of WGT put forth in their other business and are slowly converting this one to. Do you think the traditionalists of Oakmont wanted their course and name associated with pizza boxes on the tees? For starters? They simply did not renew the contract and got out. IMO
