My golf handicap was 28 so I decided

it wasn't a game for me.  Grin


28?

I can get over 200 in a game

I just don't understand why with the highest score I never win.



200?

You must be the world's worst golfer.  Grin


I'll have you know, on a good day I can easily get 6 or 7 strokes per hole.
And with lost balls, sand traps, water hazards and such, achieving 200 is quite possible


Honestly though
I do enjoy golf greatly
I aim to par or at least bogey every hole, double bogey are quite frequent though.

My drives are generally ok, my putting let's me down.

Never. Got a hole in one, missed out by 12 inches once, thought all my Christmases had come at once. Got too excited and only pared the damn thing.

Had a few birdies, never close to an albatross, chipped from a bunker into the hole once, couldn't find the damn ball, until I looked in the hole.
NO one around to boast to, bummer.

Golf is great, but I'm not dedicated enough to be any good.

No worries Valkie -
Once I saw a guy who took 14 hits to putt the ball in on a green.
You're a champion.  Grin

14?

On my worst day, and trust me I've had some doozies,  I have never reached 14.
I think I would have lost it by then and just gone home for the day.

My record for lost balls is 6 in a game
In Newcastle there is a course that has cross that pinch balls.
I was sure the damn thing was on the green, it was until the crow stole it.

But it's still all fun

As long as you don't take it seriously
