Playing with the pros

[Reddevil99]

hi guys i started posting yesterday and had a great response thanks 

I have some exciting I came back from a charity auction and I won  round of golf with Ian poulter for me and a mate, it cost quite a bit but it for charity 

I would like to know if any of you have played with a pro and what was it like.

I've played with two pros, but not a touring pro. Had a lot of fun. Very loose, casual and relaxed round. 4' gimme putts, "winter rules", basically they were playing a fun round.

Poulter is still considered a pro? I keed, I joke... I think you should be casual and not star struck, typical golf etiquette is in order and just have fun.

Just make sure you remember to scream MASHED POTATOES whenever appropriate.

@Reddevil99, enjoy your round and make sure to take photos and upload it here.  We look forward to hearing the story of how Poulter is as a person in real life

Nice! I've never played with a tour pro. I'd love to see how good they really are up close. I imagine he'll give you some stick considering where Arsenal are in the table compared to Man U (assuming you're a Man U fan based on user name).

Which course are you playing?

Played with a couple pros, but they were mini tour players. Watching them golf on courses I am able to play is kind of boring. Fairway/green then par or birdie. It gets monotonous. Kidding.  Their best asset is being able to recover from bad situations really well which rarely happens.

To be perfectly honest, they're not that much different than watching scratch/plus players. They hit longer, though.

@David in FL got to play a round with GMAC, and that looked like serious fun.

Best of luck in your charity round!

Very cool, if it's anything like my experience, you're in for a day that you'll never forget!  Be sure to tell us all about it and yeah, take lots of pics!

I've played with a handful of pro's, but never a known touring pro.  Have fun, relax, and enjoy the experience.   I'm sure they will do everything in their power to make sure you enjoy the experience.  

With that said, I always thought Poulter came off like an absolute PRIK!!  LOL........ I remember once at Phoenix when he flipped-off the fans on the 16th hole.  I mean c'mon dude.....everybody gets boo'd on that hole!!   Get over yourself already!!

I have played with a pro, and whilst the sex trade is legal in parts of the U.S. it's still illegal over here. My advice is to stay at home, or go and have a game of golf
