That's not what he's saying David. The inherent difference is that you aren't playing the same balls in golf. Your game is your game and has nothing to do with what your opponent does, unless you intentionally putt your ball into your opponents to knock them away?

Imagine if they could report neighborhoods to stay out of due to high crime and not be called racist, and then report the neighborhoods that are safe.

Better yet, send in the National Guard and end the crime

Oh well, common sense isn’t common.

I lived straight across the lake from Chicago and never went due to the crime

Possible but you would think he is smarter than that. So you reckon he thinks its not possible to have driven thru Chicago many times on many different paths? Or maybe he simply doesn't know that surface streets are city streets that are not the freeway/Interstate/expressway/highway. During racing season we end up going thru Chicago at least 8 times a season. 94, 294, 41 and other roads I forget. The worst stretch of road we have seen so far is 80/90 near Gary, it seems like at least 50% of the cars in the nation are on that stretch of road on Sunday afternoons/evenings.

Imagine how many might visit if not for Chicago crime constantly being in the news.

I've played golf for close to 60 years. My best guess would be over 2 thousand rounds. I don't think I played more than 5 by myself.

With the exception of the relative few represented by stroke play tournaments, virtually every one of them were directly competing against one or more or their individuals.

I've played a lot more pool "competing" against myself, either playing the ghost or 14-1, than I ever did golf.

Just sayin'...

50 million people visit Chicago every year and they are not cowering in their hotels after dark. Grow up.

I think people that don't golf or golfed very little underestimate how difficult it is to consistently strike the ball well. Forget about scoring, just solidly connect with the ball without hitting the ground first or missing by a quarter of an inch in the other direction and hitting a worm burner.

It's why golf equipment companies keep selling new gear, the promise of making it easier.
