Thanks for the kind words, Larry. As for the structures, I'm afraid I don't have any of the requitred software anymore. And I would have to learn it all over again, I'm afraid. Glad to see you guys are still using my stuff. |

Tw 2012 The Masters is not worth buying...
That being said, and the facts that only Augusta and Augusta Par3 and Offline (;which is tied to origin as ONLINE) are the only add-ons to buying it, i still have to say that the graphics are absolutely beautiful. With the pinnacle of it being TPC Boston with large, pretty ducks swimming in a perfectly rippling pond.
Being a TrueSwing player myself, i have to admit that there are some unblanced aspects to the game, such as the classic drivers being the only drivers capable of hitting 315+ yard drives, and Nuclear golf balls being rampantly used to maximize yardage.
Other than that, if you enjoy Golf then why not just try it and choose Tiger for your Online Golfer?
It skips all the payment necessity, which i admit is pretty ridiculous, you actually have to pay with your CC to get points to buy all the essential gear you will need to even compete with a career golfer.
But shelling out $10 isnt bad to get enough gear to compete unless you play with similar players who do not upgrade. With the option of Open Tee fees, you essentially have a $20 game at TigerWoodsOnline.ea.com for free. Very fun and challenging for me. |

Yes people are still playing online on Gameranger: http://www.gameranger.com/
There are also other sites you can join. On Coursedownloads left side down you will find section: Community links There you will find some sites. Some sites there are using a seperate game launcher, so you can play a tour.

Over at CGX we run both the US Tour & the World Tour each week using the correct & realistic versions of the actual venues. There were no less than 14 brand new venues on the WT alone this year that you will not find on anyother site or in anyother golf game to date I can safely say. We are a small community but very much alive and well worth the small yearly fee imo. C: |

Ya PCdrum but its a (fee as you say) an there is so many tours out there for FREE, just as good if not better, other then you make your own courses, but the fact is you cannot voice your opion over there which is a very big down fall (to many chiefs an no Indians) an not suitable for people that want to get involved with that community. its truely a tragedy because the courses you fellas do are very nice, personaly if Jimbo would get new staff it mite be a nice place to play golf again, I myself would join back in a heart beat if JBcag would step down an be a joe like the rest of us...I would not give him the keys to my hen house if it were me, thats just my opinion.

JBs an individual as I would hope is the case with all and he does an incredible and thankless job for nothing I may add with much respect to him,I constantly make his life a misery over there but he always laughs my rantings off, I hope so anyway C;. Randy its true there are other sites and some very good guys in them too but for me CGX is the only site offering a realistic take on the real world Pro tours and the only one that offers realisitc versions of both tours courses every week, that is enough to justify my continued support of it and something no other paid or free site can ever have claimed!
Stats wise you can look at all the tournament results in detail at CGX going back 3 years and counting. Your personal stats for each season are available on your personal page in detail.
We are I repeat a small community but we are and I repeat again the only site anywhere who offer the full package as far as realistic tours are concerned. Its a lot of work for the dedicated folk that have contributed to it in the past and for those who still do.
Golfs a passionate game filled with passionate people,cyber golfs no different,we should disagree,accept we differ and then move forward without unfair or biased appraisal.
