  Especially since WGT doesnt want us making friends with a forced 45 sec shot clock, then they have the odacity to try to trick us into gifting some stanger you have never talked a single word with to just giving them money to profit them and WGT, haha.

  So essentially you want advice on how to beg? Watch videos or do surveys or heaven forbid get out the credit card like everybody else. I have gifted balls a few times but no way I would send some to anyone who begged for them.

  Lol, and I definitely wouldn’t send Bridgestone.

  This Thread brought a tear to my eye,. And it had nothing to do with gifting balls or opinions. I saw Casey had made a comment in the thread, Man I miss him.

  LMFAO...yeah, like I do with my buds after we play a round at the club...

  "Yo dudes...don't forget to drop me a sleeve of those ProV1s as I hit too many in the water today...and while you're at it, pickup the lunch tab too".  (Notice I left out the word "please").

  I am not opposed to gifting I have replaced a few sleeves of balls to a player who was having a really bad day, and I was gifted a driver I still use. WHAT I don't like is WGT moving the buttons around so they aren't always where you expect them. Sponsor? Gift? Coin Room? Sure I want to play Monaco instead of Paris, just because I'm distracted.

  I have never been gifted balls but have given some ams cheap balls. It is a revenue driver for WGT when/if players accidentally gift balls by clicking the wrong button at the end of the match.  I have done it before being in a hurry during a 30 minutes sponsorship session.

  This particular Level 114 Tour Legend player (below) has asked me multiple times to gift him (400 credit) balls as I was teeing off and today I took a screen shot.  If you don't respond to his chat, he won't ask any further during that particular round. 

  I just wish WGT would remove this auto gifting of golf balls at the end of the match as we can gift clubs, balls, etc. at our discretion anyway. 

  What's strange is that some players do not have the auto gift balls at the end of a match?  I wonder how often I'm auto asking for balls at the end of the round?
