Hi all.  I just played in our annual club tourney today.  It isn't a big money thing.  The course owner's son, who is also an employee of the course, shot 77, on an 18 handicap.  I have played against him in the past.  He is a single digit.  I checked the handicap computer.  He has not entered a score since September 2002!  Heck, he plays at least 4-5 times per week.  His men's league handicap (which is kept separately for our 9-hole league) is 4.4.  I went to our Pro and asked him about this.  He said he can't "force" him to enter his scores.  In fact, the son's team didn't get to advance in the Buick Scramble because they reviewed the handicaps and disqualified them.  I told the Pro that nobody will want to play in the club championship with a "cheater".
 
Is there anything else that can be done to put pressure on this guy with the USGA or something?  (I don't want to get him mad.  He's built like a brick outhouse and could kick the crap out of almost every one of us.  Heck, I think his girlfriend could kick the crap out of me!)  I am not complaining because his cheating hurt me.  I was not in his flight.  I'm bugged because of the integrity of the situation.  I was absolutely shocked to learn that he has not posted scores.  I think the Pro is probably afraid of getting fired if he crosses the owners.
