I play twice a week with my wife on the executive courses. We keep score but realize that some days your "A" golfer shows up and some days your "D" golfer shows up. Thats to be expected and in the schema of life golf is relatively unimportant. We don't keep others scores nor do we ask them what they shot. We take it as it comes. Twice I week I play on the Championship courses. Usually I play men's day and in all the times I have played I very rarely have seen super competative golfers. Most of us, even though we are in a tournament, don't get aggravated with a poor round. Thats one thing I like about the Villages. No club throwing although there is some cursing. I also play with a neighborhood group for $5 a man. We play various formats and once again no super competitive types although there are some good golfers in the group. By the way I'm not a good golfer but do enjoy the game and the sometimes good shots that a pro would like.
