Best golfer you played with?

[ks8829]

I played with several talented golfers over the years. I played with seveal who shot under and had the complete game.

I also played with some long hitters who just bomb their drivers.

Who was the best golfer you played with? Thanks for your replies in advance.

Jim Dent as far as tour players.
Ronde Barber or Marshall Faulk as far as athletes. Both are scratch.

A guy I worked with played collegiate golf at VA Tech. We played together at Firestone during a customer outing. What impressed most about the VA Tech grad was that every shot he hit was STRAIGHT! No fade, no draw. Pushed a drive or two, but never into any trouble.

Iron shots looked like they were shot from mortar launcher at a 45* angle. They landed softly on greens. He also barely lined up a putt, but never missed one by more than a couple of feet.

He didn't make a lot of birdies, just a very solid ball striker who knew how to get around a course unscathed. He shot less than 75 but not a sub-par round. He also said that the course was pretty 'easy' (North Course at Firestone CC) compared to what was across the street, meaning the South Course where they play the Bridgestone/Firestone Tournament.

Scary good player!

Nobody famous. But I dated a legitimate 1.8 index who played from the blues.

One of my dads clients who is a 2 handicap. Just awesome to watch and even made me play slightly better.

What was his name? Couldnt resist Harry....

What was his name?

I sooooo saw that coming. I almost wrote a third sentence that said "I miss her ." Next time, I'll trust my instincts! Man, she was good though. Whenever we played, I wanted to just look at the other people (usually guys) we'd been paired with and say "That's right, she's with me." Now all the women I play with aren't as good as me. It's just not the same. Am I the only guy who actually likes playing with an attractive women who is better than me?

Nope, it is a great feeling.

Played with Tiger Woods once, Hes not that great guys like come on...
we were all squared up until 18 when he birdied, I parred. He finished off with 70, I got 71.

I played with a caddie from East Lake (site of the Fedex cup final round), and he was by far the best person I had ever played with. He could hit any type of shot on demand and it would be accurate. It was very impressive.

Mostly play with hacks, but I play pretty regularly with a guy who is going the Club Pro route and he is usually around par consistenly. He amazes me at times with the shots he can pull off.
