sbk Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 We actually do play golf to get away from youMore than 21 million American men play at least one round of golf a year; of those, an astounding 75 percent regularly shoot worse than 90 strokes a round. In other words, they stink. The point is this: "Going golfing" is not really about golf. It's about you, the house, the kids -- and the absence thereof. "I certainly don't play because I find it relaxing and enjoyable," admits Roland Buckingham, 32, of Lewes, Delaware, whose usual golf score of 105 is a far-from-soothing figure. "As a matter of fact, sometimes by the fourth hole I wish I were back at the house with the kids screaming. But any time I leave the house and don't invite my wife or kids -- whether it's for golf or bowling or picking up roadkill -- I'm just getting away."

Source: Redbook magazine For what its worth..from http://sortagolf.manilasites.com/m... We’re Not That Good: The average 18-hole score on a full-size course is 97 for men and 114 for women. It's an even 100 for all golfers. The average golf score has changed very little over the last 50 years, despite all the significant advances in equipment technology. Only a very small elite break 80 on a consistent basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
