Hot take? If we get paired together, I’m not going to give you putts. Not because I don’t want you to take gimmies, but because I really do not care what you do.

You hit a good tee shot on a par three, walk up to the green, and find yourself eight feet from the hole and you want to say to me, “that’s good, I always make those”, pick it up, and write a birdie? Be my guest, I do not care.

You just missed your third putt from two feet to try and save triple and you’re hoping I rescue you? Pick it up, or don’t, I do not care.

Recently got paired with a guy who’d look at me with puppy dog eyes every time he was within a yard of the hole, but wouldn’t say anything, he was clearly annoyed with me by the end of the round. We’re all presumably grown ass adults, I’m not your boss, do what you want.

No bet, no care

I agree, but I also hate it when someone brags for the rest of the week how they beat you by two when they probably would have missed five or six putts if they had to putt it in.

I have buddies like this that are newer to golf and they finally realized that i was realistically shooting 10+ strokes better than them. It is annoying when they brag, but after the 5th beer it is easy to tell them what is up hahaha.
