i stop teeing it up with people who don’t want to play a match. i’m not interested in playing “just for fun” because it’s actually much less fun imo. if im gonna keep score and have it not mean anything i’d rather play by myself

Do opposing teams keep score for your team? Or is it honor system?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5745358&forum_id=2)#49066628)

but more often it’s just shit like first round of drinks on the losers

First onto green, shortest to hole on green, first to sink putt from green (lowest putts)

Like $5 each per hole

But it's annoying unless you have an autistic friend to keep track of who owes/wins what the whole round

None of us are great golfers, 10-15 handicap range. Might be different if we were better, but someone is usually playing like ass and it's no fun to lose 8 and 7 or whatever.

One of them would be an amazing caddie. He tells me exactly what to do (where and how hard to hit) on the longest rolling elevated putts, and it goes in if I hit the target

It was his first year playing, he could only advance the ball 120-150 yards at a time on a good strike...kept it pretty straight and wasn't a bad chipper, but basically a bad enough new golfer that he really doesn't need to be keeping score.

Opening hole was a par 5 and he took 5 or 6 shots to get on, and on his fourth putt I stopped the ball with my foot and told him that's good. Said "Put me down for a 6" like some dumb instagram clip of ppl lying about their score. Probably shaved 25-30 strokes off over 18 holes, then was like "94, a new personal best." A few days later made a social media post about breaking 90 for the first time his next time out.

I play with a guy like that. We’ve been playing for almost two years, took lessons together, etc. There’s another guy who started with us and he’s actually the worst of the three, but doesn’t really publicize his score probably out of shame.

The other guy sucks off the tee. I’d say on half the holes he hits a second ball after the other one either moon balls 30 yards in front or goes out of bounds. If the second one is unplayable then he drops next to whoever had the longest drive.

He has never taken a penalty stroke. His scorecards are all public on Grint, by last count he has had 5 holes in one. I now judge my own progress by whether or not I have beaten his fake score. I’m usually off by about 7 strokes though. When I got a 95 recently, which was a personal best, I checked and he had given himself an 87. We rode together and I played better than him the entire round.

It’s insane. It’s hard to get better imo playing with people like this.

Friend back home - Foursomes always involve 2 on 2 gambling, and he'll often have a side game 1 v 1 with a member of the foursome. Very strict on gimmes. Strictly by the rules (no treating OB the same as red/yellow stakes or dropping on the other side of the hazard), with the exception of a lost ball we all agree to have been in play gets a free drop (e.g. ball plugged in the deep rough somewhere or there's tons of leaves on the ground and we can't find it). It's not really cuthroat or anything and no real shit talking, just more competitive.

Is that good

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5745358&forum_id=2)#49069032)

on a tee on the back nine a group of young hispanic boys were on a bike path above the tee and the other solo casually told us under his breath that the boys had agreed to scream during the backswing of whoever teed off first. so he did an overly elaborate addressing of the ball and on the backswing flung his club backwards and took off running and screaming at the boys -- who immediately dashed away. i don't know why but the other solo's class and humor have stayed with me.
