Reply To: POLL question – Why do you play

[Jeffrey Barbas]

BTW, I just played in a game with 2 ex-professional golfers and many of the players were on the plus side of the handicap. The one guy qualified and played in the U.S. Open several years back. Bethpage Black is where he played in the Open. I play knowing I have no chance of winning. But I still like to compete. And this year I turned 50 and I still want to play in the 49 & under. I’m not ready to move up a tee box just yet. Not yet! So I will be giving up yardage and years and thanks to the WA a reduced handicap, but, I’m still here.
