You post your scores from the white tees, but you play the back tees (not even the blues, but the gold tees, two steps back) on something like 8 of the 18 holes, nearly half of them. Your scores will reflect the actual yardage played, so they will (almost certainly) be higher than if you actually played ALL of the white tees. And you claim that your handicap, the product of these higher scores, is somehow valid and legitimate, that you’re not cheating.
Here’s my suggestion. Next time you check in for a competition, tell the Committee exactly what you wrote down in this thread, and ask them what THEY think of your Handicap Index. I’m done with this, perhaps some of the other folks have an opinion.
YES you did! APOLOGIZE
And since you seem to be an expert all you had to say nicely…Did you know the USGA provides a way for you to adjust for that? No you didn’t…not even close… maybe learn how to teach and speak nicely to people and use your expertise proactively and stop calling people CHEATERS & WHINERS! We all want to play by the rules!
