    I jst leveled up and was given the offer to rent and equip some equipments.

    The point here is why even care to offer when the equipment isnt even available. Clicked on Rent & Equip and NOTHING.

    That's funny, as apparently there is no red L100 TaylorMade Spider Putter in the Pro Shop - not any red TM to be precise!

    It must have been replaced by the L101 TaylorMade Spider GT Splitback Putter
    - I suppose a model change by TM.

    The wedges are available, and my curiosity goes to the missing "FREE" in the putter picture.

    And the OP is a Lev 105…at least the offer is for his level.  But the red putter and the missing “FREE” has to be some sort of glitch.  Definitely made me chuckle.

    Actually the putter have that Rent & Equip button just like the wedges but after i clicked on it. Nothing happened so i was wondering why even bother to offer.

    I do play with other set of equipments sometimes for a change and I actually like the look of that putter, had i have a chance to play with it and if it suits me well, i could have bought it but oh well i wasn't abled to try it.

    If it's REALLY a huge issue then send an email to WGT customer service and see if they will give you a free 2 HOUR rental of the putter that replaced that one in the proshop. Not really sure if you need it though when you are already playing the 400,000 credit Max CC "Golden" Putter!! 😖

    This is kind of a mute point any way as the item does not exist any more and cannot actually be purchased. This issue of the level up rentals containing outdated equipment is  an ongoing issue that WGT should address, but on t he grand scheme of things needing the attention of WGT devs, this would be way down on that list.

    Now for those who actually need to upgrade their putter, a missed opportunity to test out a possible upgrade (along with the 10% discount after the rental) would be an issue. I have personally had this happen and simply contacted WGT. I intended to buy the item regardless so I did not bother to request the renal time but rather just the 10% discount which WGT reimbursed my account after purchasing the item.

    WGT could offer classic set of equipments but as you said it would be the least they care about, way down the list.

    No big issue here, if it isnt available, why r u still offering? That's all.

    I play with the level 101 red spider and like it . But I know it hasn’t been available for about two years , it was replaced with the brown one , which has itself now gone I believe . Many clubs change appearance but stats remain the same , maybe see which one now has same stats and rent that.

    This was a "2 hour free rental offer", hard to repeat.

    Also, the ad was for a L100 red spider with unknown stats - impossible to compare to the current L101 putter.

    I'm guessing that they did their work only half (again) and forgot to amend the level-up perks to the Pro Shop changes(?)
