The Average Golfer

1 17 mins 9 mths

I suspect that there is, in reality, no such thing as the average golfer. For we are all unique and special in our own ways. Deep down, even the most inconsistent beginner, feels on occasion that he or she is a real golfer. We walk the fairways and swing out willingly in hope of playing good golf and posting a score. It does not always happen for us; indeed, the averages suggest that this occurs only once in every 5 or 6 rounds. If my memory serves me well, the average golfer achieves her or his handicap or better around 20% of the time.
