    I have been playing WGT for quite some time, and after many rounds of determining wind speed, club speed , club selection, etc., have determined that your score is already determined by WGT.   Some perfect shots just don't make sense, so after my credits are used up, I will be leaving WGT.  Enough is enough.

  We all have problems to try and hit the perfect shot.  This game is like a rollercoaster ride. The better you get then the rolercoaster will go up until you get use to where you are, then the rollercoaster will go down... this is the time you will be shooting good scores.... your Ave will start to fall and the whole process will start again, the rollercoaster will go up, then your shooting bad scores , until you get use to it and process will start again.

  You have only played 50 odd ranked rounds... enjoy the ride. Wait for a few hundred ranked rounds, maybe 1000 and see what you think :)

  This was one of my first posts: Dated August 15, 2011

  I been playing this game for a couple months straight now, since leaving TWO. There I had reached legend status and was one of the top players and winner of several tournaments. I know it takes time to build-up your golfer,  and don't mind being advanced to the next tier here, (even if i think i'm not ready for it), because i'm not one of those guys that get off at being at the top of the leaderboard... But i'd rather WITHDRAW from these tourneys HERE before i settle for being SCREWED over from this so called VEM. Even with a -4 at tourneys end when i know it should have been better because the meter slid past after i stopped it. I'll gladly spend money on equipment, but i'll only play for FREE!!! Chalk up another game as a practice round i guess. PS. I know it says member since 2010 for me but this was the time i was looking for online golfing, and settled at TWO, until the Clowns and Turkey Suits came out. LOL...

   

  Today: January 1, 2012

  P.S.  I'm still getting screwed, but this is  the best Online Golf Game out there so far.  Just hang in for a while and you'll get better....

  From what I see you have only played 13 9 hole matches since July and a tonne of CTTH, you have played no Alt shot games, no match play games, though I assume you may have practiced  some  Before you can make a call practice practice practice.  This is a great game although it can be very frustrating. I'm not sure you are giving the game or yourself enough credit, hang in get lots of ranked rounds under your belt & you will be surprised.

  You may have "been here," but you haven't played -- only 83 rounds in 15 months, no alt shot, no match play. I'd say 83 rounds per month is pretty standard for many players. You can't get better if you don't try.
