Do 3/4 handicap comps favour good golfers too much?

Sorry, I forgot that in the past few years the game of golf had changed radically and we now have 14 handicaps on tour...

Why do you think I play RBZ?
Obviously not working for you,or maybe its the gap between your gap wedge and lob wedge ?

Might need to add a 53 and a 58 you think? Drop the driver and 3W!!!

What does it matter!?
He is a high h/c golfer so he is going to win everything because golf is geared towards the high h/c golfer......................

No he won't, but there are more higher handicapped golfers, and the difference between a good day and a bad day is more exaggerated. More of them, bigger deviance, more likely to win. Just the way it is. Not for any specific individual, granted, but for the one of the many, it's a given.
Yep if you can use your shots well then your in with a shout, mind you if I had all them shots I would pack the game in and try bowls or something that requires a little less skill.
Maybe aye maybe no, but if you need 2 shots at one hole then you sure as hell ain't practising enough, I know girls out there who have just taken up the game that don't get 2 shots a hole...........:rofl:

For the record, I don't get two shots on any holes
I really want to make a "your bird" joke after that last line but this is a family friendly site.

Yes but some people are naturally pick the game up quickly.
Theres a guy at our place that is out on the course more than any one i know and puts in loads of work but still plays off 20.
So does he not deserve his 2 shots on 2 holes?

Somebody should tell him he should aim at the green when he hits the ball.

Surely he should be side on to the green when he hits the ball? Seems like low handicappers don't know everything.
To keep it short the answer is NO.
Come on be honest having a handicap at 18 is bad enough but to get any more than that it ridiculous, if you need more that a shot a hole then you are kidding yourself on and must ask yourself " why am I playing this game"
Lol....
Some of then could not hit the barn door with an axe never mind a wee white ball.......:rofl:

But he has never had a lesson so he is most likely practicing the wrong things but he practices more than anyone so should he still not get 2 shots on a hole?

Your way too sharp for me,you managed to pick holes in my post before i realised what i'd typed and edited it.
