I don’t care if they reflect mine. I don’t mind WHS. I didn’t mind the old system either.
But I’m not the one screaming from the rooftops that WHS is bad and we should go back to how things were.
WHS probably isn’t perfect. But neither are any golfers. So it takes the middle ground.
There are...
Why?
I have never played in a Turkey trott in my life. What has that got to do with being a member of a golf club?? At one club it’s a 9 hole pairs scramble on a Tuesday morning. I’m not taking a day off work for that.
We keep hearing about golf being taken seriously by serious golfers with...
Again, nonsense. Which US courses are the models based on?
After the wet spring. One of my courses had chest deep rough in many places and knee deep thick rough everywhere else. It’s also open and exposed to the elements in a very very windy location. Our back tees are 6800 yards. It’s...
That is a nice looking card.
Was the birdie on the last an accident? Did you consider missing a putt on purpose to record 18 straight pars?

Can’t play that length or get out of the rough? Get to the gym. Work on your speed until you have a 180mph fairway finder.
I’m sure 70 year old Betty would love to be told to hit...
Whereas people not putting GP scores in could be considered as either protecting their HI from going down or deliberately maintaining a vanity cap.
I’ve got more than double the number of GP rounds than comp rounds. I put cards in almost every time I play with another person if I know I’m...
Almost every golfer will say they want to improve. Very few actually do anything meaningful about it.
Going to the range and hitting a basket of balls once a week doesn’t really count.
I’ve heard loads of people grumble at losing a shot and rejoice at getting on back.
I suspect lots of people...
You have absolutely no control over the outcome so why worry about it? Surely you have to be happy at the score not the outcome of an meaningless competition?
If 28 handicap shoots the same net score you’re up in arms, but it’s ok off 6? What if they have put the maximum effort they can into...
