  Have you tried watching videos or completing offers for credits?

  Well sir , you should make some friends ,  Join a Country Club that helps those people who cant afford to upgrade ,,  We do it once or twice a month ,  We have help tournaments where our members get together and put our credits together , Then the winner of the tournament will gift the clubs to the recipient , It works very well ..

  Outside the US, I don't think the videos and surveys are as readily available.

  Here in Canada the videos & surveys are enough to keep up with my weekly use of balls, tournament fees, etc. (I spend about 900 credits on average each week just on balls) - Not sure about other countries.

  Keep looking at the offers available. Every so often a real doozy comes along. A few months ago, Ladbrokes were offering a double bonus of credits for a £10 deposit - 11,000 bought me my high level clubs with some left over for a few balls.

  Not here anyway - I get the carousel 7 views per day (when it works) only so every 2 weeks I can redeem 75 credits. As I play Nike balls, it only takes me 12 weeks to buy a sleeve. Awesome value!

  Surveys....someone has always eaten the surveys regardless of the time I try.....once in 5 years did I get a survey and earned 75 credits for half an hour of my life which was equally awesome value. 

  Luckily I can afford to buy balls, although I play less that I once did.,

  What is the point of winning credits? It's a gaming site, not a gambling site.

  FTP - PTW is a common gaming business concept. Anybody can play this game for free if they only can afford or access a PC and internet - fair enough I think. That is less than real golf, for sure.

  This certainly rings a bell for me. A pattern?

  I'm not rich by any definition..but decent clubs cost the price of a few pizzas, and balls the price of a few coffees.

  I use cheaper balls because I can afford them, and I can use them properly...no point in buying expensive balls if you don't have the talent to take advantage of their specs.

  With any money I am able to save up, I donate to the various wgt charities. Mr Caddie routinely runs one (12 days long) at Xmas, and Opy does the same in July. 

  Suggest you watch for these and ask for help...

  The suggestion about joining a CC is also sage.
