  Thankyou Slick - you've saved me from making a huge mistake.

  In a bit over 9 hours I'll get an 800 credit drop from an RG.  I played the round a couple of days ago.  That was going towards a set of K-15 irons for a poster on this thread who asked nice enough for them on my profile page.

  I've noticed you're one of her friends.  Looks like you just saved me over 1600 creds.

  I could say I won't be reading my profile OR these Forums for a bit but I will probably still tune in..(hard habit to break eh ? )

  But I won't be playing till Merion .....(If I'm allowed) 

  In that vein there are 5000 credits going free (just ball money to me which I won't be spending during that timescale ^^^) and I'd prefer them to go to newbies or L70+ members who deserve.... but as in the Xmas give away, that was hard to achieve for lower tiers as they don't read the Forums as much as WE or Pizza thought  they could or should and that may have built a better community ..?

  I'm sure he FLEXED his muscles in the WGT office and as a Newbie made enemies.. but his Ideas were noble, which is why he got the job in the 1st place I'm guessing?

  Nice Idea BUT imo he went about in the wrong way. (Seemed to be a pet project for him) and to justify his placement, he was so desperate for it to work that he was too outspoken in a tight knit WGT office, that he inflamed the situation at times ?

  5000 doesn't go far where WE are but if you are struggling for the last high end ATV then...ask...

  Anything but balls... still many wedges / putters available to L10+ guys

  Edit.. that  ^^^^ seems to be all I've sent so far :)

  very true, ......

  ...... and/or 'junior' members could to be very confused or disoriented when they first time come here. some of them are just afraid to show their inexperience or embarrassed because of errors in writing (other language). wgt could create a new section in the forum, like 'PLACE for NEWBIES - ask what you want', where they could  feel less vulnerable, safety place where should to be less 'sharp' comments of the senior members. (this is not in connection with any post in this topic, edit)

  ... sorry Andy, if i went in a different direction. and i'd like to apologize to ecka cause my post have no connection with topic subject line

  And they are ever so Generous too, gifting each other balls and equipment like they seem to do. Heck they seem to have even joined Wgt & their CC within a few days of each other... Talk about Club unity.

  Hear you Ope....surprised WGT don't find it as easy as we players do to differentiate. Weird as they have a couple of the best on staff..

  Edit: just looked at your kit as you are one of the most deserving members I looked at what to send you but you use Rballz Driver with a hybrid, the 64* satin with top Cleves and the Rossa......Now that is a unique combo and am loathe to send you anything you don't WANT..the balls are the only thing I can see that might make a difference in my mind as having played with you, you like your set up and play well with them, so me sending you the new L48 driver will make no odds are they are basically the same club......

  Sent you a few sleeves of balls that will imo, not drastically improve your game but may make it a bit easier.  Andy

  Sir ,, I need nothing , I have more balls than I will use in a year , I just like to use the starter ones some times to mix it up . I also have all the top clubs but use this set up as it makes it more fun and harder ,,
