    I am beginning to doubt my commitment to it.  My head is tired of going into the "calculator" mode for every darn shot. . .running distances, percentages, heights, lows, and etc.  Then after all the numbers are run, the marks have to be hit where you want to and the swing meter must not jerk, skip, stall, and stuff.  

    Additionally, the good balls cost REAL money to maintain and are lost (costing you money) when hitting water or weeds. Now I know that is the way it is in real golf.  But, lest we forget it, this is not real golf. It seems only right to this old man that we should be able to keep the balls until their durability is exhausted. Come on, wgt, give us a break.  

    Just how much of our money does wgt  want so that we can play very few 18 hole courses with a new one promised just once a year?

    I admit that I became a total addict in 2011. I love to play this game, and my friends on here are priceless to me. I have had many nights of laughs, and great conversations. I made no resolutions to lose weight, or quit smoking, or any of the other normal things that you promise yourself every New Years. I will, however, cut back on the hours I spend on here, and the absurd amount of real money I spend on un-real balls and equipment. I will get my nightly game or two, and continue to talk with my friends, and put my usually unwanted or needed comments in the forums. Just part of the addiction that you can't drop cold turkey. This game is just  to much fun to drop. I will keep trying to work my way to Legend status, but I will not be obsessed by it. It's a game, it's fun, and there are some great, and amazing people on here. Take it for what it is, and not what you are trying to make it. That is where all the moaners and complainers issues are. You are trying to shoot in the low 50's, make all birdies and eagles like the best of the best do. It is not going to happen people. If you can shoot 15-20 under par in real golf, then I understand your frustration. If not, then stop and think. If you shoot 3 or 4 under in this game, on these courses, then you had a good round. The players on here shooting the lowest scores are not having a good time when they don't shoot a low to mid 50. They are miserable if they don't beat everyone they play. That is taking this game (GAME) out of perspective. If this post has helped anyone make any sense of this game, great. If not, oh well, sorry. Please, just ignore the suspected cheaters or multi accounters, or the whateverables (Yancy lingo) and have a fun game. This isn't face book or a dating site, porn site or Dear Abby, it's WGT, hit em straight.
