    I am known around the TT community as a usher who likes to post random stuff that will get you thinking, in a fun way so I bring you this scenario

    There are 4 pills in front of you on a table , blue ,green, yellow, red. Each having its own power

    Green: never 3 putt again Yellow: become a member of Augusta National Blue: Be a +handicap Red: Avg 325 carry off tee with driver

    I’m curious to see what pill everyone would take a why. Be creative and I look forward to reading the responses:)!!!

    I shouldn't respond as COVID sheltering isn't that bad. You didn't specify one and only one as a limit, so green, blue, and yellow are all part of my polypharmacy regimen. If I'm a plus handicap, I don't need a 325 yard bomb (red)

    Green because a 3 putt can kill a score really quick & cost you dearly.
    By eliminating all 3 putts your worst number of putts per round will be 36

    So Example:

    14 tee shots
    36 Putts you are now at 50.
    There are typically 4 par 3's & if you hit all 4 in regulation you're at 54
    Then add 28 more approach shots over the other 14 holes (2 per hole)
    You shoot a score of 82.

    So I'd take the Green Pill (even though I avg. 31.4 putts per round)

    OK, you asked a hypothetical question and no jokes aside my answer is Blue!

    Like the Progressive Insurance commercial says:

    "Blue"

    Anywhere/anytime I play I'll bring my plus handicap skills to the course. I do not do that currently (or ever!)...

    I would not want to be "given" a +3 index. Have the fun is working to get there. At my age, 325 yds off the tee would be very helpful in "working" to get there. ;-)

    I have to go Yellow on this one. I am fine with my high handicap, 3 putts and short drives!

    My head says blue but my heart says yellow. As posted earlier so eloquently by Don O, if you're a plus handicap you don't need to bomb the driver and you don't make many two putts let alone three. But my heart says I could hack it around Augusta with the best of them and that green jacket would be pretty cool.

    Love to be a member of August National, every guys dream course to belong to, but do not have an extra million laying around to spend, and we love living in the Charleston, SC so much. Just too old and have too many back and hip issues for 300+ plus drives anymore, but am happy with 225-240. At 74+ not enough time left on this earth to get down to a plus handicapper and not a real high priority, just going to continue to be a double digit and enjoy this wonderful game. But my goal is live as long as my mom's father and my mentor. 96 years of age. Am retired and requires too much of that four letter word "WORK". Seem to have more one putts than three putts so they balance out. My right honorable friend (Dale) from the other coast regarding homework might be right but do realize that spring break is not far way and sometimes we all had a tendency to stray when we are young and in school and had those boring classes. Me I hated school and the school hated me. They even invited me not to come back. So I guess the only pill I would choose will be those that the doctor's prescribe that help relieve the pain of getting older. Oh, you will know that feeling one day when you actually have the time to think back on what could have been. WITH RESPECT. Study hard and most of all enjoy the game. Cheers.... =)
  17. Blue! As a + handicap would be doing everything well

    I take four pills every morning anyway. So I'll take four more with a diet coke.
