agree
we had a guy here who was plus one and then he went to 3 because of work and family - every now and then he'd shoot a 70 off the bat for 40-41 points and win and people whinged - mostly the hackers complaining
shooting that number is still bloody hard to do.
on the other side we had a guy go from 13 to 18 and won our whitnoom cup (our major annual event) I dont trust the guy as far as I can chuck him - just seemed dodgy thats all.
Got it on 12 with a differential of 2 on best 8. In perfect position for a kill
I still want to get to 36.
Our local perennial B grade favourite has started his float out to 13, what with the single and 4BBB knockout and of course the club champs coming up, he's due again.
****ers like this should be shot at dawn
There is nothing I want for and thus no need to win a comp. See no need to pay good coin and the reward for improvement is less hits.

Looks like my sandbagging for the OzGolf champs is on track.
Despite hitting the ball really well over the last few months I haven't been able to score. Plus I have to go play a few more club champs round at Dartmoor which has an ACR of 69 so I'll drift out there too.
Should be off about 5 for the champs...

Being new to golf, i dont get the whole concept of sandbagging. Why would you honestly want to spend 5 hours crafting your handicap? Wouldnt you want to go out with the intention of playing your best and aiming for your best score every round?
Is winning comps on an inflated handicap what makes you a real golfer?
No but winning prizes is what a lot of golfers are out to do. And its hard to do that off yur "best" handicap. Much easier to do from 4 to 8 shots worse than what you should be.
Not saying its the right thing to do but as Virge has stated here numerous times, whats the point in being a low marker, shooting 2 or 3 under off the bat and still getting beaten by a guy off 15 who's had 7 or 8 over?

oh disappointed JC, saw that you had posted in here and thought you were going to call out on our little mate ginger meggs.
If you are playing for the prize of an incorrectly sized rain jumper and $50 pro shop credit, you have it all wrong.

I should be off 4 by the time I fly in for the Wanker champs. It won't be enough though!
The committee is having a meeting to determine everyone's hc before champs anyway mate.
Surely we all play of our official AGU handicaps.
The west aussies will be but wouldnt be so sure about you easteners.
We should all get more shots for crossing the border and going back in time.
