Back to EpisodesSplitting Fairways Episode 4: Who Does the Handicap System Favor?
Description
If you’ve played golf long enough, you’ve probably heard both sides of this argument.
Low handicaps hate giving strokes. Higher handicaps get tired of hearing them complain.
So who’s right?
That question serves as the foundation for this week’s episode of Splitting Fairways, the THP podcast where Ryan “Hawk” and Jeremy “Lord Tox” take on the conversations golfers are already having every day. Rather than deciding who’s right, the show explores both sides of golf’s most divisive topics.
This week, the focus shifts to one of the oldest debates in the game: the handicap system.
Along the way, the discussion explores scoring variance, sandbaggers, vanity handicaps, and why golfers on opposite ends of the handicap spectrum both seem convinced the system favors the other guy.
After listening, we want to hear from you.
Who has it tougher: the golfer giving strokes or the golfer getting them?
