.......that you could beat President Trump in a 'head to head' golf game? No handicap involved. Just 'mano a mano'.

Based on what Jamie Diaz said in an article this year, I think Don and I would have a competitive match, but he'd beat me 2&1.
"Both our rounds came during openings of redesigns to his courses and were played casually, with plenty of putts inside five feet over-generously slapped away. But I certainly didn't get the feeling that Trump shoots in the 70s only because he doesn't putt the short ones. His ball-striking, from medium-length tees, made him a legitimate 4-handicap at the time. Today he's officially a 2.8 in the United States Golf Association's GHIN system (see chart below), though he has posted only scores going back to 2009." |

Let's see do you really want to go around bragging that you beat the guy who holds the nuclear codes, can put you in Gitmo, or never get an invite to play for free at any of his golf courses?

A decent eraser fixes most rounds.

I'd lose by whatever he suggested I lose by and make a friend who owns several golf courses. It's the Art of the Deal. |

Why not simply try your best and see if it's good enough. If not fine, but I least I'd know I tried. And if I'd win, i would not be worried about anything else, lest be "invited" to play at a fancy course (at my expense, I am sure...): they are plenty of other fancy golf courses around and many of them are even public. |

Tell him if he wants anymore I'm easy to find. |

And sell your soul or at least self-esteem in the process? It's a hypothetical question that we have a 0.000001% chance of ever having to really answer. I'm a 10.5HI, so the real answer is I'd play my game and hope that things turned out ok. I didn't think the question was serious so I have given two non-serious answers - the first one involves my SFGT Tour Eraser, the second one was a call out to Trump's book. |

Don't pop by fingers at me. I am back into one of my awful playing patterns. I am down $200 to my father-in-law over the past two days. He is a 12 handicap who always drops a mid-70s round on me. I have shot 81 and 86 in back to back rounds!!! |
