Have him send his GHIN number to you or 288.

I've got a C-Note backing you (along with the guy above)...b/c I know how much you can't stand this dude. Straight up gross score.

Playing from the big boy back tees.

None of this "I play from the Whites" sh++.

Post your GHIN number, Duggins.

We can go from there.

If I don't have to have surgery next month, I'll be playing from the backs, chief.

You've got one guy in particular that wants to beat the hell of out this guy...up and down the course. I'd post the text messages, but, I don't want to get banned.

I'll back his bet for a C-Note, coupled with g-man's C-Note posted above.

So long as Duggins will post his GHIN number by end of day, all bets are on.

If he can't (or won't) post his GHIN number by end of day, all bets are off.

Here is the problem I am having.
I have (2) guys that I don't trust playing golf with due to what JJ keeps posting.

I wanted to set up a friendly outing with some serious players.

I think they know what they r doing especially JJ who didn't want to play now he wants to play. If he is trying to wreck this outing he is doing a good job.

I'm going to go out in a limb and say the "serious" players would gladly be part of the 12+ group. Some of them just don't want to be in your 4some

Sure, we could do a 20.00 buy in and play a stableford with gross skins. I'm open for whatever. There are just some side bets on match with 77.

I'm not a good player but it cracks me up to be paired with someone who says they're a 3, 4, 5 handicap and after they shoot 91 they just can't understand how all those slices and lost balls happened.
I've been this guy, only with a snap hook instead of a slice. But I never tell people my HC unless they ask me. I'm pretty long off the tee but like many longer hitters I can definitely shoot 90 plus if I'm struggling with the driver. OB and hazards really add up fast.

Haven't really decided. I threw out the idea of a 20.00 buy in, we could play a stableford with a split pot with gross skins.

I'm game for whatever, just looking foward to a fun round with my fellow Ags!!

Im an 8, but if i consistently turned in my good days i'd be a 5 or less. Only time i felt guilty was playing in a handicapped tourney as a 9, shot my career best 64 on par 72 course. Luckily, i was playin with guys id played in lots of tourneys against so they know my handicap is decently legit.

Frankly, vast majority of guys i play against at an 8 are sandbagging 3s. Id rather play against most 1 or 2s... those guys are usually my skill level that just want the number to impress friends but arent that good.
So basically you are an 8 but really a sandbagging 4?

What I am embarrassed about now is sporting a 6.4 from August that is really about a 9 after playing almost no golf since the Fall monsoon started in September!

I had a good friend that carried a 9 handicap but was really a 3. We played a lot of 2 man events in south Louisiana back in the 90s. He use to tell me " when you leave a tournament and everyone is mad at you, you done good."



Golf is a very unforgiving game. Throw in the elements of fall and winter, expect your handicaps to rise so don't be embarrassed.

It seems backward to want it to go up so I can actually be competitive at club events, knowing that it will be summer before I get back to a 6.

But I worked hard to get to single digits, and that matters more than $100 pro shop credit. There are some sandbaggers at the club that are so notorious no one speaks their name without an eyeroll.

That is a sad situation.

I have the same type of golfers at my club. I hate sand baggers, to me, it's basically cheating!!!

It's not basically cheating. It's 100 percent cheating to the definition

I guess I was a bit nave with ol' Bob but he never gambled and played the ball down as he should. Every time we played, he would beat 2 out of 3 times. When I would press him, he could pull off some shots that were amazing.

But when he was bad, he was terrible and I guess that explains why his handicap was so high compared to his tournament play. He would get a case of the shanks that was embarrassing to watch. One round I watched him hit every fairway with driver and shank every approach shot. Get mad as all get out but never cursed.

But looking back, when he was on he was no 12, my goodness that man could putt.

You are 100% correct!! I think sandbaggers should be taken out back and have their knees introduced to a bat!!

Exactly.....that is why I carry when I golf.

Handicap is like a bank account, just a number.
