I used to play in 50 odd comps a year, h/cap 12, I now play in about 10, h/cap 12 (well 11.3 at the moment). It makes no difference if your h/cap is honest. If you are a cheat, you will find a way to cheat.
Putting every card in is daft. What is CSS, if you are the only one to play, what ever you shoot is buffer zone.
Comps are off the blocks, pins tucked away, pressure on. This is when you are judged. You can't cut off yellows. Or whites. Someone short off the tee can blow away a short course, but stick them off the blocks can add 6 shots easy.
Also, in bounce games I want to practice things, have a laugh, be silly, aim for the 1 in a million shot. With a card, you have to play safe, so golf would become more stressful, and it is supposed to be fun. Yes, comps are fun in their way, but so is skins, so is matchplay, and so is whacking it a hard as you can.
