Game crippled since new tiers introduced

  Hi all

  I was plodding along happily on the Pro tees with my Ping Rapture V2 Pro 9.5 driver.

  I wake up one morning and all of a sudden I'm on the Master tees. After a few weeks of awful scores I finally decide it's time to upgrade my driver.

  Trouble is I'm only at Level 31, and I can't even get the 2010 Rapture V2 10.5 until I'm at Level 37, and that has a shorter distance than the club I've got! Looks like I have to wait until I'm at least Level 62 before I can buy a new driver to give me any increase in distance that I need for the Master tees!

  This whole Tier shuffle doesn't appear to have been too kind to me...

  Anyone got any suggestions?

  Andy

  Hmm, well there's at least one hole on the front 9 at St. Andrews where it's nigh on impossible to clear the rough on your first shot if there's any headwind.

  I think you can drive in-between the 2 stretches of rough, if it's hole 7 you're talking about. There's fairway in-between, you know.
