Well, this is sort of extreme. Also, if you are playing a set of tees where
the course rating is substantially lower than par then you will shoot your
course hdcp or better probably a fair amount of the time. Conversely if you
play the tips, and that course rating is say 6 strokes higher than par then you
might NEVER shoot your hdcp (relative to par).
In 2000, at a major tournament at my club, i shot 79-77 for the weekend as a 14
hdcp. Par 71, course rating was 70.2 at the time. I would be ok if you said i
was 99% chance sandbagger based on that but at least in my case - it wasnt
100%.
BTW - i came in 2nd. A 9 hdcp shot 76-74 that weekend....
