If you think a 10 handicapper could break par on ANY course you know NOTHING about golf.

In my prime, I have shot from middle tees even par for 9 twice, and 4 over for 18 once. My average at the time was probably 10 over on fairly easy courses I had played many times. All it takes is a good putting day. I really question how much YOU know about golf.

Being a golf pro (Teaching not tour) I think I do know what I am talking about! Most people have no clue as to how bad a 15 handicap is and how great tour pros are! Being a scratch golfer myself I would gladly take Pavins place in that bet! Once again, Ivey has NO CHANCE!

I just think your above statement shows you have little understanding of either:

A. The scoring range of a 10 handicapper
B. The ease of various courses

Perhaps your own experiences with students are not reflective of true swings. Chances are a struggling 10 handicapper is more likely to seek lessons than a 10 handicapper in a groove.

I agree that pavin should win
