At my club it is near 30% at a guess.
Think you must be way off the mark there. That is an unbelievable figure unless they are semi pros!
We do a high / low drawn comp in the winter. The half way mark is about 12. There are a heck of a lot of single digit golfers. I guess the course must be easy.
Yeah but thats just a representation of people who play comps, which is obviously going to be balanced way more towards the better golfers in the club.
At my home club there is a handicap board with everyones handicap on it (not sure if all clubs do this or not...) and when you look at it, 80% of the names you don't even recognise! And all those handicaps are in the 20's. Even that doesn't take into account the members of the club who don't have a handicap... and then on top of THAT is the fact that the majority of golfers aren't members of clubs and don't even have handicaps!
I have no clue what the number would be, but if I were to guess I'd say somewhere around 5% ...
