    I enjoy playing individuals in Match Play, but it is often difficult to find someone who is within the same handicap range, even within my same level.  It would be helpful if WGT could allow a player to select finding a player within a certain range of your own handicap - say 2 to 4 points.  Anyone else have that concern?  Any suggestions?

    Having similar numbers doesn't mean you have similar abilities. The averages and stats on here are virtually meaningless these days since the introduction of short tee tournaments.

    Thanks for your comment.  My general feeling is its not worth trying to play someone who has a handicap that is 4 or more points below mine, but maybe I'll try some and see what happens.

    What's the worst that can happen? Some you win and some you learn from.
