They aren’t even close. Pitching from the short grass right on the edge of the green and putting on the green itself are perhaps somewhat the same as pool. But the putting/chipping game is still thirty or forty percent tougher than pool.
As for the game from tee to green, FUGGEDABOUDID! (Or however you spell that dismissive phrase.). There is simply no comparison. I once stood near Ian Poulter when he had a level lie in long grass but about one hundred and sixty yards up hill to the green. Without any hesitation he took an iron and sent the ball rocketing onto the green. The controlled strength that shot took stunned me.
I know both games.
