I had a great time. We all did, even though we were four singles thrown together. This happens a lot in this great game we play. When we got to the 18th green I sunk a 10-footer and that's when one of my playing partners said, "If I ever found myself competing against you, I swear I'd find a way to break your putter."
No doubt it was meant as a complement as my playing partners had watched me sink a lot of putts over the course of the round. But here is the point of this thread. Why does it seem that when someone performs well people act as if it must be the arrow and not the Indian? Whether it's driving, approach shots, pitching, chipping or putting the vast majority of the time people seem to assume or act as if it is the equipment that is responsible?
