Are there courses or certain types of courses particularly good for action now? Some of the old ones are talked about, but I have not heard it about newer ones.

Limon, have you read Fast Company? That seems to be the standard book for this and other gambling/hustling. MaxPower recommended it to me and it was a good, quick read.

[/ QUOTE ] i really dont think about finding marks at courses, its too forced. many guys who will lose 10k on craps consider a $20 nassau "big stakes" becuase thats what theyve always played for. you have to get them AT THE CASINO. so that the context of the betting is in the casino context and not the golf course context. |

Whats your handicap? whatws the most you ever made have you ever heard of/seen/played Terrance Leon Jr. [/ QUOTE ] my handicap hovers around 4 but ive been known to "get lucky" when the money is deep. ill be happy to play a scratch golfer head up if the betting is right or the money is big enough to make him uncomfortable. heard of terrance. lots of x-caddy hustlers work the los angeles country clubs or give lessons w/o credentials. these are the guys who, if they lose, might not pay. thier hustle continues after the money is due. |

Has anyone ever wanted to fight you/been really angry after a match because they deduced thatyou "hustled" them?
Have you ever been hustled? |

as far as being good at golf. i have a huslers game, i.e i chip and put extremely well. what this does is make me look lucky. i can bomb a 300 drive but i wouldnt. that is equated w/ GOOD. getting up and down at precise moments or never 3 putting will fly under the radar. [/ QUOTE ] Wow, this makes so much sense it's scary. |

the only times ive ever had an angry "customer" is when its a team match and my teammate fux things up. example: i got invited to a match and we had to play teams. we had the match well in hand and were totally in controll when my partner got nitty on some rule. this caused the match to die, no more betting, no more presses, no beer after the round no future invite. if i have a guy under controll ill let him cheat all day.
ive been hustled sorta. by some putting green sharks from time to time. i let my pride get the best of me. i know what they're up to but for small money ill take a shot just to see where i stand. |

Im currently pretty damn bad at golf, I plan on spending this winter learning how to play well, Id rather play the game to learn how to hustle, rather than just to play (i have a few books, hence why Ive heard of terrence). Is there anything I should be doing different during the learning process?
