It's a video game. It's not going to be up to par for every one's expectations. If you are having problems (skipping meter, lag, etc) try changing the flash quality, as well as turn "loop" off. If you actually want to play some good golf on this game, you will have to spend some money. Besides, this game is free. Some games like this could easily have a purchase fee of $20.00, and still make us pay for clubs. You can always work on surveys/ tier up. Otherwise, you are going to stay stuck with the clubs you currently have. They aren't even that bad either. I personally made Master just with the Pro Driver, and that's all. Good luck with the rest of your game.. Hope this helps!
Edit: Why did you edit your original post? That makes mine sound pointless now.. Thanks :/
