    Hi to every one,

     

    Name is John and I am relatively new here. Wanted to say howdy and ask a question. My problem , at present is putting. I am a level 33 and have a e-z swing putter, ot the one you use when first joining. I really have trouble aiming and it seems to go left and right, no matter what I try.

    Any thoughts and am also looking for people to play with

    Ditch the EZ-Swing, I see many still using the Starter Putter and they do quite well with it. 

    OR if you want to spend the credits wait till level 35 and get the 

    TaylorMade Ghost Spider Putter (L35+)

    800 Credits

    You can do better with a broomstick with a brick on it than use the EZ miss putter

    I find the title of this post is a little misleading.....I thought it was about putting while you are high Lol

    hi again to all that read this.. I need to let everyone know something so there isn't any misunderstandings here. My post was about LEARNING to putt better, not putting while I'm "high" like one person suggested, and to those that wrote a reply thank you very much. 

    The reason I am writing now is that I need to explain something that came up today. Something that was very strange.  Any way. When I posted you see that I called myself "John".  Well the truth is when  I joined this wonderful game here at WGT, I had had surgery to alter my gender from male to female parts if you will. I had complications from the surgery and was very angry so I just joined with my birth name and gender avatar.  Now  I am much better and I am wanting to celebrate my true gender as I see it.  This means I am a transgender woman now. I am not a freak nor am I a *** or dork as one of you recently called me today. I also do not,  I repeat do not ,play for anything other than fun. Some one invited me to join a game and promptly told me we were playing for 90 credits.  I had been playing with a very dear friend and thought he was playing a joke on me.  During the game, this person talked about such things as thongs, like he could see my thong underwear if you will and told me to put sand in my pockets. I thought all along this was my friend and played along with him. I, numerous times referred to my friend that I had played with before as Mike during this game. I truly thought this person was Mike.  

    At the end of the game, in which this person won, I lost 90 credits or 9.00 dollars of money. At the exact conclusion when it was changing screens he accused me of being a "DUDE" and then promptly emailed me accusing me of being a dork , *** and he indicated he was going to warn every one that I am parading around posing as a female to get gifts credits and what not. This is absolutely incorrect and hateful and mean. This person took ME for money and now is claiming to the world I AM A CHEAT and a freak..

    Finally, I am a transgender woman, know that and understand it please. I play for no money or credits. I enjoy the game and those that have played with me. I am telling every one from now on why I have a female avatar. It is because I FEEL I AM A WOMAN and had the surgery to give me my true gender at least in my mind. If any of you are offended I am sorry. I mean no harm to any one. I am not a hustler and never will be. I hope the person reads this. I will not mention his name. If he reads it he will know who he is.  What he did is absolutely hurtful and mean. He needs to be punished by WGT. 

    He is the cheat not me. I haven't hurt anybody. A picture doesn't cause me to be a cheat. 

    So, every one, I am Joni Norton or jnorton22002. Know that I am a transgendered woman and in my mind am a woman. If you don't want to play with me that's fine. that is all I wanted to say
