Firstly, congratulations to all who have received invites, and I wish u all good luck and happy golfing, Now my question is,, What is going to make the WGC and MAJOR tournaments different, Will there be NO SCOUT CAM and or will there be NO GREEN GRID and or will there be NO WIND SPEED and or will there be NONE of them turned on?
Just my opinion but surely these have to be different in someway, what are admins views and what are the players views.
Thanks.
ps, ive added a poll for all to partake, thanks. |

I think the strength of the field is enough to make this tourney exceptionally hard..
It's going to be harder to place well in this one than any other tourney played so far.
My goal is top 25.. If I make that.. I think I would have achieved something and would be very pleased

Yeah I understand that buddy, with SOF, but I still feel they should be different in someway, surely?

I think 99 (other) Players should make this Tourney special and take a break this Weekend  ... Just kidding...My Opinion is very similar to Smiffys. WGC's & Majors should have some special Moments like playing without some of the Aids. I am killing my average Gaming with this, but I would prefer playing those Tournaments in a way like this... Day 1: Easy Pins, All Aids on. Day 2: Easy Pins, Scout Cam off. Day 3: Difficult/Medium Pins, Scout Cam Off Day 4: Difficult/Medium Pins, Scout Cam & Green Grid Off Greetings from Germany |

What makes the WGC and MAJORS different then? may as well have had them open for registration and the 1st 100 players got a spot, cant see the point in making a big song and dance about them if they are just the same. Just my view, that's all. 
WGC and MAJORS should not be won with -50 to -60 scores, and no this is not a euro tour player moaning etc etc its a genuine sincere question, which I hope is answered in a honest and genuine manner.
Thanks.

AFCTUJacko I do get that buddy, but why cant they be played a different way, that's all im asking. If, which I know deep down they will, be played with all aids on then so be it, that's the way it is, and may the best player win, but surely if you have qualified for the event then why not be taken out of your comfort zone, that's all im saying. PLEASE SURELY SOMEOTHERS SEE MY VIEW,   mikesch75 gets what im trying to say, lol. Come on ladies and gentlemen, lets make them tougher.

Your suggestion is like if the teams that got to the knockout round in the World Cup, the rules committee came in and said, "Congrats on getting this far but we need to make it tougher, so for the final stages everyone is playing futsal".
There is another reason turning aids off is a bad idea but you will have to look in my post history because I am just not going to keep bringing it back up. Don't get me wrong, I personally LOVE upping the challenge of this game, but for the health of this Tour the right answer must be aids on.

Hi guys i can certainly see smiffys point of view,i myself having just scraped into the event probably face a LOW(lol) finishing position
but am extremely proud to have gained entry,while i absolutely wouldn't want to see all aids OFF(quaking with fear here) i would agree
that making this event extra special would add to the pressure for even the greatest players we have here
If a single change was to be made then scout cam OFF would be my preference and lastly good luck to everybody
who made it to the event many congratulations and play well.

Fair point well made buddy, i do agree in oneway but yet disagree in another, ok i get it all aids off is a bit harsh, get that, but why not just change 1, thats all i'm saying. |

Wind off to help prevent darts as some/ most approach shots are pretty straightforward I would presume for the top players. That's not to harsh

I understand the logic of wanting to make it different, but don't think it can work in reality. If you turn any aids off, immediately anyone with 2 accounts eg xbox and pc has a massive advantage, as they could play their round on xbox and meanwhile play a simultaneous round on the pc and get a scout cam, green grid etc. As a player who only plays on ps4 this would be a massive disadvantage to me. Can't see how you could stop this happening, and some players would definitely exploit it.
