Let's take this thread a different direction. Do you play better when you WALK or RIDE? Does it make any difference?
I think it's mostly psychological. If you think you'll play badly if you ride, then that's probably what's going to happen. I personally prefer walking just because I'm used to it, and also that's what the pros do!
I only ride if it's included in the greens fee. Last summer at the country club I worked at they let me play most evenings and then I rode and got in 9 holes in 45 minutes. I enjoy playing reasonably fast so when I'm alone and riding I usually play pretty well. But there's nothing worse than catching up to someone and having it slow down your round.
Other than that though, I always walk. Did all through high school because we had to and everyone I play with walks. It's a great way to enjoy the day and always invites some good conversation.
Golf was made for WALKIN' period end of story. I carry my sack even though I'm fat. . . . but I got to play with a caddy once at No. 2. Right after the Open. Michael Jordan and Joe Morgan played 3 groups ahead of me. That was one good day. Stopped and hammered some chicken at Bojangles afterwards . . . life was good.
I wish courses would start more caddy programs. I'd like to go caddy at No. 2. during the summers. That would be fun. I immediately took the conversation to the lowest common denominator with the caddy . . . nekked chicks etc. He said he had caddied for Trump and he was cool dude but had stanky breath. No telling what he said about mine . . .
