The Truth About Your Game

Follow The Cuz for the harsh realities of golf skill, GHIN handicaps, and the ethics of the social game. How bad do you truly suck?

Three Rounds Of Questions

Tee It Up. Tell The Truth.

Everybody has a story about the 78 they shot once. We want the scorecard from last Saturday.

Round 01

Reality Check: Your Handicap

  • How bad do you truly suck?

    What is your actual GHIN? Not the one you tell the starter. The one the app knows.

  • Where is your home turf?

    Identify your home golf course, and whether it is a course or an excuse.

Round 02

On-Course Confessions

  • Ball flight

    Draw, fade, straight, hook, or the slice? Own it. The trees already know.

  • Conduct

    Are you a relentless talker on the course, or a man who lets the round breathe?

  • Language

    Do you swear like a trucker or keep it clean? Bonus points for creativity on the fourth putt.

Round 03

Rules Of Engagement

  • Compliance

    Do you follow USGA rules or make your own? The foot wedge is a confession, not a club.

  • 19th hole play

    How strong is your game when it matters? The round ends. The reputation is built at the bar.

The people's shot.

Where the real game is played.

Mulligan
Per round. Per the rules. Per you.

Officially.
Your handicap is a number. Your character is what you do with a bad lie when nobody is watching.
