I've never really enjoyed golf tournaments where best ball and scramble formats were used. You see, I like to measure my game, my progress by individual scores over a period of time and played on a variety of courses. I guess it might be a function of not getting to play as often as I would like, or it might be an ego thing. I don't know.

Or, it might be fellow golfers who have soured me on the tournament experience. There always seems to be one "professional" on the team who is more than happy to offer advice or guidance -- "You need to torque more on your back swing and rotate your hips through the ball to generate additional club head speed." Right, especially when my L4 lumbar is killing me.
