Another stupid thread from me: golf is harder than pool

They are not really comparable. One is a individual sport and one is a direct competive sport like tennis or boxing.
They both use balls but that is about it.
That's Not it!

I've played both, (Golf 2 handicap & World class 3C!

The 2 Most Difficult 'Single Player' games are Golf and Cue games!

The Reason: "They are the Only 2 games where a single player propels a ball with a stick"!

It is funny, while different many games also have similar challenges. One of the hardest things to do is hit a fast ball. It is because like cue sports, you are hitting a round object with a round object.

I don't think You understand the 'Physics'!

Once again! "They are the Only 2 games where a single player propels a ball with a stick"!

Baseball, Tennis are 'Reactionary' games!

A huge percentage of the effect of the Bat & Tennis Raquet' come from the ball towards the player at a high rate of speed!

In Golf & Cue games, the player has to 'Generate' every 'mph' of speed to the ball!

BTW, which is More difficult. There is really No 'One on one defense in Golf! IMPO, the 'Elements' are the Defense!

But, In Golf the player always has '14 tools' to help with Most every shot that comes up!

Now days, in Pool the players have '3-4 Tools' at their disposal! In 3C, we Only get one!

Some days in Golf as in Cue games every shot can look/feel very difficult, the other days no shot looks/feels that way!

That could happen next Feb/march! . Wisconsin golf season is just getting fired up. It’s felt great getting out there finally.
Where in Wisconsin? That's where I grew up...

We play every day of the year down here, but none of them can match that very first round of the year after a long, cold winter. 👍

Seems like I always play my best that first time out and think I'm really going to make some strides this year.... and then I go downhill from there 🙁 Maybe my expectations are lower and I'm not thinking too much during that first round. 🤷‍♂️
