Quoted from golfingdad1:Very good points, when I compete I take it seriously and when I choke I get mad at myself and hope my competition does worse. Why ? I don't know . It's just for fun right ?
Are you the same way on the golf course?
Quoted from golfingdad1:My number one rule when it comes to golf and probably applies to pins as well.
No quicker way to loose friends than a friendly wager .
I can play competitive pinball for fun, but with golf, it's a lot more enjoyable to me when there is something on the line. It doesn't matter what it is, whether a beer or $100 a hole, that gets me going. I don't like to lose, either in pinball or in golf, but that competition is what it's all about. If I do poorly and lose, off comes the hat, I shake hands, then head out to practice and get ready to do it again. Just the way I'm wired.
