Funny one!

It's a bad day at golf, when.... You run out of balls by the turn, and have to buy a $20 per sleeve balls at the pro shop.

I thought it was going to be a really bad day when I was waiting to tee off on #1 and my left shoulder popped out while I was taking practice swings.

I popped it back in, and it actually turned out to be one of the best rounds I ever had at that time because I was swinging really easy and crushing the ball.

I think I'm with Turtle on this one! Although it could be a bad golf day when you bring home more bug bites from the tall stuff than balls in the bag.

when you realize you have forgotten your wedge on the last hole but youve been chipping so bad that you really dont care to go back and get it.

- Your hitting 5 off the first tee even though you were aiming towards another fairway to avoid the O/B on the first 2 tee shots.

- You aim left expecting a fade but hit a draw. You then aim right and hit the fade.

Happened to me 4 times Sunday morning because I'm hard headed. Broken index finger has completely changed my swing, I haven't even pulled my driver/3w out of the bag the last two rounds, I've played my hybrid 4 from the tee because it's the most distance I can hit straight right now. Every day has been a "bad day" recently but it's better than not being out at all.

- Starting the round with a bogie/double/triple

- Paired up with a NASCAR fan (That's what I call loud-mouth golfers who wear jeans/t-shirts and have no clue about golf rules/etiquette)

- Forgetting something at home that you were stoked that you had ready to bring with you (snacks/beverage/towel/sleeve of balls/new golf glove/etc)

only two?

I generally buy a dozen and have to bum one or two off my buddies before the round is over.

Your wife has already called you three times, and you're only on the second hole.

    • This is a loooooong winded narrative so if you don't like long stories, move on. 😉 Our senior club typically gets about 25 new members each year. We lose about 25 members each year for various reasons (moved to FL/AZ, disabled, dead, too expensive). Of the new members, usually 20 have an active GHIN handicap. About 5 each year do not have a GHIN handicap. When they join our club, we give each member a state association membership that includes GHIN handicapping services. We play a series of handicapped tournaments over the summer. When we sign up a new member who does not have a GHIN handicap, we attempt to give them an estimated index until they have sufficient scores posted to have an actual GHIN index.  Our first event typically is around May 15 so, in theory, a new member has about 6 weeks to post a few scores. Posting season in the Mitten starts April 1. Inevitably, several of the unhandicapped individuals seem  to either not play until the first tournament or can't figure out how to enter scores (hey, they are seniors). That situation then leads to my contacting the new member and asking a series of questions: a. Did you ever have a GHIN handicap? If yes, which State and do you recall what it was? b. Do you have an alternate handicap through a non-GHIN handicap service or a league? c. What do you think your average score was last year (for 9 or 18) d. What was your best score last year? Where did you play and which tee was used? e. What do you consider a very good score for yourself? Based on their responses I attempt to give them an index that makes them competitive in the first couple events BUT does not allow them to win their flight in the first couple events. We don't want the new members to finish last and at the same time, we don't want someone with a "20" playing handicap to win the third flight with a net 57. In the event some new member did shoot a net 57, we also advise everyone that we can and will adjust handicaps retroactively when it is clear to us that a member's handicap does not accurately reflect their potential. We don't like to adjust things retroactively and in the 8 years I have chaired the Handicap Committee, we have only done it once. So here are the questions to the mob: Any ideas how to do this better? Any questions one might ask an unhandicapped individual to better estimate their index/handicap? Would it be reasonable to have a new player play once (or more?) without being eligible to place in the money?
