There you go, wasn’t dificult was it :thup:
Not bad after a 15yr gap.
No sure what the big deal is, I haven't been asked til you did
Anyway, we've gone way off topic, I am genuinely surprised by the figures, 7% cat 1 really surprises me as I think I know more cat 1s than cat 3 players, in fact I know I do, I hardly know any cat 3 players.

Probably because they know you’re a handicap snob :whoo:
Believe it or not, 2 of my four are actually cat 3s
and I'm not a handicap snob, all I said was I wouldn't play the game if I was a cat 3 but that's just me. My bro gave the game up cause he could no longer play to single figure, it's not for everyone.Simbo

Doesn't the 7% figure drop even lower if you include the whole of GB?
113 is some going though, considering it's only really over 7 months at best. Iv got 2 a week at most at my place, some weeks only 1. Is he a CAT 1 golfer as most 36 hole comps up here are only really scratch tourneys are they not?
Don't really think the 9 hole ones should be included in his tally though.

It was joke ffs!Believe it or not, 2 of my four are actually cat 3s
Does supplementary cards count in that total of 113, if so that's attainable
it says comps, not Scores, and he is a ,member in Perth somewhere. even if it did include supplementary its still over 100, which IMO is some going
If it's counting it's comp I guess. Did it say Perth particularly or Perthshire ?

If certain people wouldn't play if they were a Cat 3 player, it sums up everything that is wrong in our game. If I was there (and I'm not a million miles off it) I'd simply be playing as many comps as I could and working as hard as I could to get better. The last thing I'd need is some know it all degrading me as I didn't meet his own lofty aspirations. In fact I'd be loving the chance to get drawn in a match play event and ram those words down his throat. We have loads of Cat 3 and Cat 4 players in our weekend roll ups and in drawn competition groups and as long as we have a decent round and enjoy it I don't care if they are scratch or 28

So if you played of 13 then you would give up the game !
Dry your eyes precious, I've already said I actually play every weekend with 2 of our 4 who are cat3s, I just wouldn't play if it were me, get over it.
Yes. To elaborate, when I came back playing recently I said to myself if I can still knock it around the 80 mark I'm stick at it, if not I won't.

You sound a real arrogant sod. Can you not take another 15 year sabbatical. How pretentious are you? Wouldn't play off 13. Dear me. You must be suicidal if you shoot 76 or higher. Do you have Samaritans on speed dial in case you shoot 80

Cat 3 is 13-20, that’s you isn’t it Homer?
Pretentious :rofl: I know that's probably how it comes across but I'm anything but that :clap: I'm sure there are hundreds probably thousands around who'd probably chuck it if they could no longer play off a cat1, does that make them pretentious ??

We recently reset the Divisions at our course to even out the numbers in each division to roughly 40 players in each for a Saturday medal.
Divisions came out as 1-10, 11-15, 16 and above.
Shows where the most players handicaps are. It is a little skewed because there are relatively few roughly 24+ handicappers who play Saturday medals whereas in the seniors the balance tends to be towards the higher end of the handicaps (Divisions 1-15, 16 -20, 21 and over)

I actually dont think there are tbh - i havent met anyone in that situation.
Certainly never met anyone who would give up just because they played off 13
