Tom F,
I don't know if you have any golf planned for this trip, but the
northern end of Michigan has many really excellent courses. Right
there in Traverse City, you have a Nicklaus course and one by Tom
Doak. I spent a great 10 days driving around that area 15 or so
years ago and loved

Thinking back, I actually had two break. The first broke at the edge weld,
which they replaced. The replacement broke in the middle of the face after
a couple years and they were out of production by then and it was not replaced.

Hi Robert,
Been there, done that, even have the T shirt.
There are many of us that keep an accurate handicap. We play and practice
several time a week. Because of our age, or our ability, we can no longer hit
the ball as far as we used to, or we never did drive well, or chip well. or

I once asked my son who eventually got to a +1 hcp with a course record '64'
what his handicap goal

For an example; I play nearly every Tuesday and Thursday with the same 6 - 8

How is it fair, you ask? Well, here’s how. Our faculty league has an arcane set
of rules, a combination of match and medal. Every year we review the results
and every year we find that the low handicap players have a slight advantage
over the rest. The intention is to equalize the players so tha
I had a Gemini 395 10.5* fail. It doesn't say "I" or "II" so I'd assume
it's the "I". 1-inch long horizontal crack in the center of the club

Yes, max scores on a hole is the way we play here in our "old farts" group
of 5-6 foursomes. Depending on the game we are playing (eg: two low net), if
a player is out of a hole anyway, he puts the ball in his pocket and goes to
the next hole. Handicap under 10, he gets a DB, over 10 get

How in gods name is it fair to the guy that goes out and practices 2 to three

If your playing for money then be a man (just an expression ladies) If you
don't have the game then go practice some more. The whole handicap system is
unfair to scratch players to begin with! It scews the game to begin with.
On top of scewing the game most courses don't keep their course se
FYI, "gimmees" or conceded putts/holes are perfectly legal in match play, and
those rounds are required to be posted for handicap purposes. The handicap
system has specific rules for match play and conceded putts/holes, stating that
"the most likely score" is to be posted for any conceded hole.

Maybe he's talking about playing for real money, not funsie stuff among
buddies. If I was playing for real money, I would not trust anyone's handicap

Well, Duh, that's what stroke madness is all about, thanks for saying it.
It allows an 18 to press a 1.
