When a Weakness Turns Into a Weapon

Good answer Richie, is it ok to copy and paste it to the site in question?

The other argument (they mentioned) is that knock up rounds in US count for handicap. So if you are relaxed playing with your mates, you will play better than in a competition round. They also say that you don't have to return every card - is that right? You could keep your handicap artificially low by not returning bad cards is the accusation I guess.

WOW, really surprised at how some people think. You can look at Richie's swing, and read his blog. It is OBVIOUS to me how much his action has improved and how much TGM knowledge he has gained. I don't care what the index says:

GREAT WORK RICHIE!

I have only not turned in one round of golf and that was coming off an injury and I was hitting a couple of balls, so it really would not have counted anyway. Other than that, I turn in every score. Also, I usually play 2 times a week in money matches with a large group of friends, we play the ball down and we putt everything out.

The best I can suggest is that to somehow get on a course of one of my member clubs and see how you do, playing from the tips and playing it down. If somebody can tell me that they honestly think Hamilton Mill is easy to shoot under par on, then they must be on the level of play of Jeff Hull or better. And I have a tremendous amount of respect for Jeff's golf skill level.

For a list of the clubs I play, go to www.canongategolf.com.

Only in the UK would someone want to keep their handicap artificially low! Socialists don't like money! (Inserted tongue in cheek) Over here everyone is looking for "shots!" And without a doubt Richie would be giving me a few! In all fairness to the golfers of the island that once ruled the world I would not mind seeing more of their brand of golf etiquette, especially pace of play.
