Hmm here's an interesting piece of info that I wasn't aware of. According to the USGA "the system will account for abnormal playing conditions, limit extreme movement of a Handicap Index and reduce a Handicap Index when an exceptional score is posted" . I take that to read when you have a blowout round either high or low it won't affect the index. Wonder what the parameters of that are.

As a higher handicapper I'd agree. My fitter put me in shaft/head combinations that helped me with some of the issues. The end result of the fitting was a much narrower dispersion with the club's he recommended. It didn't take care of all of the issues and that's where the instructor came in. I think if you're going to take this game seriously you should get fit regardless of your handicap. On the other hand if you're going to play a few times a year and don't care about your score a fitting is overkill - but then you're probably not on this forum anyway.

Played so many I can't remember. I only post rounds I play with others (USGA and our Club's rules for calculating Index). We start playing in mid April and I play 4-5 times a week til the end of November. So maybe so maybe 120 recorded rounds plus a lot more unrecorded. This year I'm also going to add a couple of rounds in December - my wife and I played December 26th in 60 degree weather - pretty good for northwest Ohio. Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy

Not a good football weekend for us Buckeyes - especially from the Cleveland area. Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy

Probably from all of that stress at work - take it easy. Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy

I'd agree - Speith looks lost and Tiger's on his game. I'm still hoping for Rickie and anyone else except Rhombo (sorry @Shankster) or Sergio.

So I guess we'll see them on Tour (worn by the grounds crew)?[emoji23] Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy

Foz so sorry to hear. Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy

Googled them - but no link. Is this the correct spelling?

You need a different name then the 'bacon boys'. Maybe the 'wild shorts guys'?

40 is definitely too cold especially if it's cloudy and windy. Hi 40's sunshine and no wind - different story.

I'm partial to Ireland and Australia. We stayed in Kinsale but couldn't play Old Head https://www.swinggolfireland.com/old-head-of-kinsale-golf-links/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjM-3zs7T5gIVx0XVCh3M2gMlEAAYASAAEgI7u_D_BwE I love courses adjacent to the water/scenic views Another must do: Adare Manor. We walked the course there - site of the 2024(?) Solheim Cup. http://www.adaremanorgolfclub.com/ Would go back in a heartbeat. In Australia, Barnboogle/Lost Farm is a real treat on the northern side of Tasmania. We played Lost Farm which has 20 holes and is adjacent to the Bass Strait - a real treat.

Foz sorry to hear about your friend. Tough way to live out your last years. We'll keep him in our prayers.

Fireplace - wait aren't you in Florida?

First -sounds like you might be on the mend! It's stories like this that bring us back down to reality. As bad as sometimes we think we have it there are others that are in a lot worse shape. Merry Christmas and hope 2020 brings you a pain free back! Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy
