When I'm playing in the Tuesday morning men's outing every shot counts. I like the pressure and the chance to win a couple of dollars for the team. But if I'm playing casually the only shot that matters to me is trying for a hole in one because you can win a prize, the certificate. The people I golf with only care if you are keeping up. I could shoot double par and it wouldn't matter to anyone if they weren't waiting for me to hit. I think that's how it should be. So I rarely play a par 3 safe. What is there to gain?
