I was under the impression that at some point . I think after Level 4 that members receive free shot and putter pals . If they so desire . I know I have always had it available . Never would have to purchase it . Right ? IDK .

Putterpal becomes free on level 2 and Shotpal on level 4. You can check that sort of thing on the Benefits tab on your game client homepage.

Yes . I know . But that doesn't say that each and every member receives it . And doesn't explain why I just saw that two of my members purchased it recently .
Unless of course they were new members . And when WGT adds it to their profile they call it a purchase .
And I wouldn't be able to tell by looking at a profile . Those items are not visible . I have no way to ask my members things like this . They wouldn't know what the hell I was talking about anyway .
The " Benefits Tab " vaguely lists various things . I am not finding any details for any of this . Unless I just don't know where to look . Or maybe they think we were just born with the knowledge .
Courteney . I appreciate your response . Although it really didn't clear anything up for me .
You will certainly be an excellent moderator when you retire from " Awesome CC Eliteness " .
That's not to say that you aren't already a very good moderator

Sometimes to receive the club privileges, ie shot pals putter pals, they need to visit the club. A new member may not receive those until they are made a member and played a club game.
WGT trying to make all even, but its hard for clubs growing, just read and learn, it's not easy, not all members, are happy.
Good work Good Club
Best of Luck

Everyone in a club receives all of it's benefits.

Ok . Thank you . Courteney . That is a definitive answer I can definitely understand .

So is my assumption that when it is added to a members profile it shows up as a purchase ? Because the whole basis for my inquiry was that I wanted to tell a couple guys that they didn't need to purchase them anymore because they should have them for free .
But before I got to presumptuous I thought I would check on it . I still don't know what to think . Hopefully you know this one also .

I would expect nothing to show as a purchase that is free from WGT.
Check the dates - maybe they bought them before they joined.

THIS NEW MEMBER joined the club Valley of the Sun Casual Club.

18 Apr
THIS NEW MEMBER purchased the WGT Shot Pal (200 hit) in the Pro Shop.

18 Apr
THIS NEW MEMBER purchased the WGT Putter Pal (100 hit) in the Pro Shop.

One would think all one would have to do is ask the member . Believe me there is an inquiry on their wall .
IDK about you but I have about ZERO percent success rate posting messages on some ones wall . Who knows if I will ever get a response . It is the only way to try and communicate with a member .
So in the mean time . I am trying to gather a little knowledge and facts about the scenario . So if what you contend turns out to be the case then if I ever talk with this / these members . I will explain that they need not purchase their putter and shot pals any longer . I think .

It would appear that these are in fact member initiated purchases . Lol now it comes down to the time of day . Lol . The mystery continues .

Well that is certainly the first time I have ever had that honor . That's very funny . Talk about Lol . Wow definitely an archiveable moment . It sure is funny to see the different ways someone can interpret things . Lol . That made my morning . Been called a lot of things . Ranging from ahole to Hitler . Bully to tyrant , jerk to jerk off idiot to moron. accomodating , to selfish . the list would go on for pages . IDK whether to hug you or shove it up your ass . But I guess I'll just say Thank you because I guess it would take one to know one .

And you in turn have made my day ^^^ that's the reaction I aim for.
It's all done tongue in cheek (sorry can't resist a bad pun) and I certainly bear you no malice. I just like foolin around.

I think it shows up on the members account page as a purchase or "transaction" but the cost is listed as 0 Credits, much like it looks in your transactions when you sign up for a free or paid entry tournament.

Hi m8!
The free putter pal and shot pal, only become free, if you are in a Country Club that has reached a given level. Please ignore the childish posts by others, you have a legitimatize question and some members tend to just plain be ****. Hope this helps!

Could it also be that they do not have it turned " ON " in the options and do not know they have it . ?

Here is another one of my posts on it . This happens to be the way I actually usually try to maintain this issue .
"POACHING lol "
Believe it or not . Is actually legal in the " Nation of World Golf Tour " . As noted by many who seem to be in their right minds . That members actually have a choice .
There are others that feel that any sort of suggesting to someone already in a CC that they join another is an act of POACHING .
In my message on that wall you notice I mention that I don't send CC invites to members in another CC . Instead I just invite them to look .
That is just the way I do it . If they want to join . They gotta message me on their own . Then I will message them back and ask them to explain their intent . If they do . Then all is good and I send them an invite . If they don't . Then it is doubtful our paths will cross again . ( being that there are 100's of thousands of potential recruits) . Where they are ? I have no idea .

edit note : The subject whose wall is mentioned had been a " free agent " up until probably just hours prior to my invitation to look . Other than that isolated incident I would not ever invite a member belonging to another CC to even look much less send a CC invite . Ever . I do not practice " POACHING " .
However the post earlier " Here . How's this ?" is posted completely toungue in cheek . It is how I really feel about the subject . But not the way I roll .
In answer to your question . No I am not OK about a lot of things .
I get my recruits exclusively from the "Tournament leader boards " where one can find many members not belonging to CC's . Any other recruits come from word of mouth .
