As a responsible adult I feel it is my duty to say 'Quit goofing off in school, pay attention, and get your grades up'.

As your Aces High friend I'm wondering hows your score?  :devil

You see the little upside down triangle at your aim point Rox, grab and move that. Dont forget you can back/top spin the ball as well (little golf ball on the right hand side, with green dot - grab the dot and push up for top, pull down for backspin)

Trust me Skorp.. Squid's a senior and I hear all of the horror stories.  

Since he's an A / B student and hasn't ever been in any trouble I give him a lot of latitude.

Title: Re: WGT
Post by: ROX on March 19, 2011, 05:07:31 PM
In that game my long game is almost perfect.

The putting seems realistic, but I have never had that many ball in and then ring-around-the-rosie and back out 6 feet away in real life ever.

Also, I put the bottom spin like wurzel said on all my chip shots and wedge shots (anything within 20 yards of the green) and it just keeps rolling on to Poughkipsie.  Odd.

Are you using the stock balls?  I'm thinking to get the most out of the spin you have to upgrade to balls with betters spin characteristics.

Flippin' AWESOME.

My long game is awesome, rarely in a bunker except St. Andrews with all those flippin' weeds...sheesh...get a lawn mower.

On that Island in South Carolina I do very well except putting.  Those greens are HELLA-FAST.  I study the green lays and practice alot but the putting game is HORRIBLE for me.   :(

Post by: Dichotomy on March 23, 2011, 02:38:02 PM
Oakmont always gets me in trouble.  Seems like as soon as I tee off I absolutely can not make a decent shot.

I wish they'd set up a virtual driving range / chipping & putting area instead of having to play a round to find your shot.  

When I get to L38 I think I'm going to buy this set of clubs http://www.wgt.com/proshop/product.aspx?i=a4f8e185-0d8b-43ae-a8d4-b777b0854931&c=Bundles

Ya bastage, got me by a stroke.  After I set up and shot that 18 hole at St. Andrews I entered in the weekly 9-hole single entry at St. Andrews and shot -3.  Two strokes out of the lead and tied for 9th place.
