Sounds like you need to try and get in with a group at your club, the more people you know the more you will feel comfortable in medals.Partially because of the slowness, partially because I’d prefer to play alone than with strangers.
Partially because in one of the few medals I did enter I was paired with a guy who told me after I knocked a 6 inch putt in one handed with the back of my putter, that should be a penalty stroke for not using the correct flat part of the putter. At that point I switched off to medals. I wasn’t cheating in my mind, I have no idea if he rule is correct or not, but I play golf for fun, I don’t care a jot about winning shop credit and if winning shop credits so important to people they would call a penalty for that, then it’s certainly not something I’m getting involved in
I like playing medals with people I don't know as I don't feel I'm being watched by pals.
Guys comment about putter was nonsense.
