There may be a lot of reasons and I'm not talking competition. What do you, or people you've seen, do? C'mon fess up, or just tell us about the friend of a friend :). The stuff that the perpetrator thinks is fair or believes is the rule.

We take a single for a lost ball to expidite play, otherwise we're by the book as we know it, although my partner destroyed a bush in his way last year until I reprimanded him for it. He's good now.

I had a "stated" hcp'er of 7 move the ball from an inconvenient tree (just paired up, didn't know him). I could be a 7 with that concession.

What about hcp? Other than a true calculation, how do you figure it? I calculated it online last year and it was generous. My calculation is the center of my scores. I swing between 88 and 100, thus my 22. I've been staying closser to the lower end for awhile so I might allow myself a point or so soon.

You're new, so you've probably not heard me or others say this to you. Please listen: rather than start new topics, please find existing threads. This very topic has been discussed several times.

You calculate your handicap incorrectly. Look up the proper way to do it. It's not difficult.

    • Going to go against the grain a bit here and say that pain isn't as severe as we think it is sometimes.  A lot of times if something has been there for a long time it is really neurological.  Unless a sports med tells you it's likely to tear I would keep going with physio until a doctor tells you not to.  Good luck
    • I just wanted to post an update here.. so the person telling me that information was incorrect. They mixed up two of the courses that we play during our competition rounds and the one we played last weekend was NOT a non-smoking course.  I was also wrong in thinking that he was a member of said club, but he wasn't.. he's a member of a completely different club in our tournament pool.   The course that we will play next weekend is the one with the strict smoking ban and they have stated this clearly in their local rules.  The main reason for this is that there is a very high risk of forest fires in the area where this course is located at, so it's not to promote "health and wellbeing", but purely based on safety.
