I golf about 2-3 times a week and most of the time i golf by myself. Anyone know how to find some people to golf with. I don't mind their handicap just looking for anyone. My friends don'kt golf much so that's out.

I went to the Pittsburgh Golf Show last spring and saw a sign that said, "Are you looking for a golf partner?"  Since I was recently retired and wanted to play more than my regular golf buddy, I thought that I would inquire. When I asked them about finding a golf partner, they asked me what my age was and other personal information.  It turned out that this was a "match making" company that paired single men and women for a golf outing. To make a long story short, my wife said I couldn't find a golf buddy from this company.

I did not read all the posts here so likely someone has already posted this suggestion.  But if I was you I would call around and see what courses have a men's club and join one them.  Most are relatively inexpensive and for sure you'll meet a lot of local golfers.

Why not come out to TopGolf?  There are multiple locations through out the US.

check out our website at Topgolf.com to find one near you.

I hate you.

Kidding!!!!!!!!!!  Welcome to the site Chris!  By the way, if you haven't already, I suggest dropping a line to @iacas and @mvmac (co owners) to make sure you don't violate their spamming rules. :beer:

Now, back to that hate thing. ;-) I've seen your website and your setup looks, how do I say this?? ... Freaking awesome!!!!  The problem??  How come no locations in Socal?!?!?!?!

      Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want.

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      By Shindig · Posted

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
