There were 3 of us playing and one guy never played before and made Roger look like Arnie Palmer. He would MISS the ball, twice. One hole he kept chipping over the green back and forth. For our sanity, we stopped him at 10 strokes for each hole. We let a lot of people play through.
You’d think he would realize his putting stroke is consistently too strong. And, then, having realized that, it would be better to aim short of hole until he puts the ball a few inches from it.
I once teed off and immediately shanked the ball into some trees. My next three shots hit trees, so that, after four shots, I was behind the tee box. My fifth shot got out onto the fairway, and then my next shot got way too high and hit the only branch hanging out over the fairway. Six shots, four trees, endless frustration. I didn’t quit golf that day, but a year or two later in 1980, I played three holes, turned in my rental clubs and never played again.

He should take lessons from Phil Mickelson.

“If I sink this 350-yard par 4 dogleg, I’ll get a 72 on this hole. Say, can I use a tee again?”

I wonder how many strokes before he will be back at the tee.
