   Just forget it. I should have known I would only get criticized  for asking.

  H-

  It's quite simple.....you set the game up. Then you have control of who plays and can find players who are at similar levels. It's that easy.

  At the end of the day does it really matter if you win or lose at AS? It's only for fun.

  Fairly SIMPLE really -

  I'm confused as to why you felt the need to post this. Help us out here OP.

  Out of curiosity - 

  1. Why are you accepting games from these lower tier players, when you know your tee box is farther back than the rest?
  2. Were you expecting a different outcome because of Legend Green speeds?

   

  I'm going to have to agree with Courteneyfish on this one.

  And my favorite piece of advice - Don't climb the fence of the Junk Yard if you don't want to be bitten by the dogs.

  Quite right + the experience is handy too.

  Gotta agre with some of what was said.

  I used to take matches like this and when I did  I certainly wasn't doing it to win.  I always played alt shot just for fun. The other reason I would take a match like you describe is for the challenge of it.

  If I got paired with a TP or below I always knew I was at a disadvatage. Even tho I had my greens, I knew my partner wouldn't have the clubs to deal with some of the long aproaches I was going to leave him or her from the back tees. So I knew to keep us in the game I was going to have to really be on with my scrambling, sand save and putting, which would help me practice those things.

  I think you just need to change your expectations about matches like that and go into them with a different point of view
