Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Is that even real? How can you be that bad? I have worked at a golf course for 15+ years and I have seen some horrid players, but shooting 257, I just don't see how thats even possible. You could putt the ball down the fairway and shoot a lower score than that. I don't even know how can that even be fun? He lost 5 dozen golf balls!

Are you saying that Stephen Hawing could have beat him?

Anything's possible, I mean I could beat this guy using just my putter.

I was not alive when this event happened but believe this is the one my dad told me about, and unless I'm mistaken on the 17th at Sawgrass where he eventually carded a 66, he did eventually use his putter for the entire hole and putted around and up the walkway to reach the green...after hitting 2 dozen balls in the water or so

The guy obviously has some mental game issues. He needs to stop worrying about his mechanics and just swing his natural swing. A good caddie will do him some good, get him out of his own head. Jack Nicklaus could probably shave at least 100 strokes if he was on his bag 😜

lol I remember that well.

What always got me about him was, how could anyone enjoy playing like that? If it were me I would have either taken lessons or threw my clubs away.

I think Fitcat1 played behind this guy, which is why he was so bitter about golf.

      Strategy - Inverary Golf Club Hole 14

      By klineka ·

      Ah, got it.  Yeah I'd just play it for bogey. Even as a low handicap I wouldn't be all that upset with a bogey on that hole.

      Strategy - Inverary Golf Club Hole 14

      Haha I made a I typo. I was thinking two things at once, ‘I don’t think bogey is a bad score’ and ‘I think bogey is a great score’. But I mixed them up and said the opposite

      Strategy - Inverary Golf Club Hole 14

      By klineka ·

      How isn't bogey a great score? As a 20 handicap every single time you make a bogey you are playing better than expected. Because if you bogeyed every hole you'd most likely be lower than a 20. You're a high handicap playing a hole that is lined with hazards the entire length of it on both sides.  Bogey is a very solid score for you on that hole.  From 300yds off the tee PGA tour players average 3.71 strokes to hole out. As a high handicap you are going to be more than 1 full stroke higher than that, probably closer to 2 full strokes higher.  If you had 100 different 20 handicaps play that hole I would bet a lot of money that the scoring average is greater than 5.0 Sometimes courses have really hard holes. Play for your bogey, be ecstatic about a par, and do everything possible to minimize double bogey.

      I don’t think bogey is a great score here. Will try the 7i - 7i approach. If I’m short, I think I can get out of the bunker and if I’m on the right I can chip up.
