I was never shy about playing with strangers. When I first learning I wanted to see better players. When I was a 14 went out at twilight and went off with one other player, a 3. He got up and down from every where, after finishing the round thanked him for the clinic. After that is when I signed up for lessons, after a year I was that 3. The best players I had the privilege to play with was as a walk on. Babe Zaharias Course, Industry Hills, California. The LPGA had played there in the past.
The starter put me with the SCGA Sectional Champion and the number one women's player from Long Beach State College. I watcher her putt on the practice green and did not know who she was. We played from the champion/back tees. He shot 68, I shot 70 and she shot 71. Par was 71. What a great day of enjoyable golf that was, I will never forget it.
That's one he!! of group to shoot golf with. Just think, not being open to playing as a single and you miss playing in a threesome that shot a cumulative 4 under with nobody over par - fantastic!
