The snazziest name ever is already taken----------The Golf News. You can find it online, ummmmmmmmmm, nowhere. It must be on THE DARK WEB!

Just read this thread over and I don't know. 

Maybe @PEZGolf is just another troll, but maybe he really needs help. Maybe he's a shut-in with nothing left but his computer and internet connection. The list of jobs from a few pages back really makes me think the fella needs help.

Actually, it's pretty sad.

You just crushed my dreams with that statement.  At least I am a single digit player now that I have adjusted all of my scorecards.  Maybe after a 3 pack of lessons from you I can go to Q school and try and turn pro next weekend.  What's your schedule look like.  Oh hey, and would you like to be my caddy? :-D

He could be telling the truth as far as we know about the other items. They are not nearly as outrageous as having a 1.3HC with only the distance of a 12HC.

In reality I agree with you and was thinking that myself.  I am going to discontinue saying anything related to him or his posts.  Thanks for stating that.

He's a long time member from 2008, so it seems odd that he would show up and start trolling now.

Not really.  Plenty of reasons to reemerge that are plausible.

What sorts of reasons? I can't really think of anything off hand. Maybe I'm spoiled by this site being so straightforward?

Like you, I think I'm going to refrain from making any statements that further declines his situation here.

Anything from the more run of the mill:

1). He got banned from other boards

2). He wore out his welcome on other boards or forums

3). He needed new people to shock and awe because the people he had been doing this too just plain started ignoring him and so he remembered he used to be on TST

4). He lost 22 of his 23 jobs and has more time on his hands now.

To the more less likely yet still plausible:

1). He was just released from a psychiatric hospital and has fallen off of his treatment plan (meds)

2). He has had a true psychotic break with reality-this one could fit either list

That being said, I am now done with his threads and posts.

 

Sincerely @PEZGolf go and get the help you need, even if you do not think you need help.  There is nothing wrong with talking with a licensed therapist about things and having a checkup session or refresher, etc.

:whistle: Same here, what I really meant is that he has the minimum distance to score to our handicaps.

He sounds like he's a pretty decent golfer, and 11.3 is pretty poor playing. I think he might have changed it by accident recently?

We do have a couple near scratch players in our club who are aged in the mid to high 60s, so while it's very rare it is possible. . .

Hey @PEZGolf, I'll take you up on your offer to play someone on three conditions:

1) You come to Colorado to play the match (or meet me in Michigan next summer when I go there)

2) We both play the same tees (though you can choose which tees we play)

3) You agree that I may publish the results of the match on this forum afterwords

We have a warning protocol we go through, so no.

He can admit he lied, or do something to prove that he's a 1.x handicapper, or something else to "make things right." Or he can just stop posting altogether, which is fine too.

But if he makes things right, he can and would be allowed to continue to post as a normal member.

    • I played in an outing a few years ago. The course was wet, and it was windy. We all did bad enough to reward us with a PCC of +1 (If I am remembering this correctly). So all of our differentials went up 1.  So, if that score is part of my best 8 out of 20. That means I am getting 1/8th of a differential improvement. For you to get a PCC, you need enough people submitting their score for handicap during that day. Let's say you were the only person who was submitting the score for handicap, odds are you are not getting a PCC.  Which is fine, because no handicap system can be that nuanced. I don't think you'd want it to be. Still, my statement is correct. It takes into account weather and abnormal difficult conditions. 
    • I’ve been rather surprised how my original question relating to the logic behind “differential vs course handicap” elicited the responses expressed on this thread so far. I suppose it shows that there are many who have given this subject a lot of thought. I personally like the current system for the same reasons stated in the post by saevel25 and it works very well in our league. I just needed to get the reasoning/logic clear in my head so I could explain it succinctly to those who had questions. Regarding the ongoing discussion, the only tweak we make is only the scores made in league competition count. (We don’t use GHIN, we do the calculation ourselves.) The only additional thought I had is perhaps the powers that be can come up with a method, when doing the differential calculation, of giving greater weight to the rounds played more recently than those from 20 rounds ago. I’ve been testing this with an idea I had similar to the way colleges calculate GPA’s based on credits offered by different classes, but honestly, the complexity it adds to the calculation isn’t worth the trouble as any change made has proven to be inconsequential.
