I see it in mine, anyways. Maybe you looked in the wrong spot?!

Why this BCT ??  Why don't you simply forbid the Beginer Set in the CC-Pro and maintain the CC-Am as Tour with Beginner Set allowed ?? I'm very dissappointed with your new change, I like to play with the Beginner Set but don't like to be excluded from the fun ....

You can still compete in BCT and still have fun. |

You can still compete in BCT and still have fun. Yeah, sure ... but most of the fun is to participate in the whole systems with demotions / promotions, to try to climb up the ladder .... BCT is set apart .... That's what I meant with "excluded from the fun" ... I'm shure there are others, too, who will feel the same
And yes, you'll say maybe, why not try to use the Pro Clubs ? I'm simply better with the Begginer Set ... they are easier to handle but have theirs disadvantages. So why not taking it as part of one's personal strategie with which set one choose to play ?

The beginner clubs are too easy which is why they were banned. IMO being good with beginner clubs is like being good at bowling with bumpers. |

Is there going to be a BCT tab on the main site menu so we can see Tournaments, Players, etc like the main tours and TST?

You still have to read the course, know what club to use and learn to putt. I prefer to turn it around. Beginners are more like racing a 4 cylinder, reliable car. Even though it is slower and easier to control, I still have to know how to drive and race. Masters are like driving a Red Bull F1 - they should easily beat the 4 cylinder but random mechanical errors mean I struggle to finish the race. |

I hate to break it to you, but you'll just have to change to the pro/master set if you want to take part in the full immersion of the Tours. Way better this way in my mind. I'm assuming the only people that will not like the decision are the beginner club users. Well to that, i say too bad. Either play with clubs that take a bit of skill or stay on the beginner tour. There's also the option of not playing TGC Tours and moving to a different society  |

Thats a better analogy, definitely, but saying it that way id equate it to playing f1 with a wheel and no assists with cockpit cam (master clubs) vs a controller, full assists and chase cam. And tbh, I don’t know of any f1 leagues that allow anything but something really close to full sim. |

Fair point - except at the moment XB1 seems to have simulation damage while everyone else has cosmetic or limited damage! |

So true. Totally agree. I’ve been using pro clubs because I feel I shoot better with them. Halfway thru this weeks tournament I changed to master and I can handle them now, so I’m now shooting better with master clubs. Can’t beleive the snobbery around her directed at beginner/pro clubs. If players shoot better with them let them use them for crying out loud. |
