  I'm a master using level 15 irons with no height or really any spin not to mention a driver maxed out at 250 and using cheap balls and I can still shoot in the low 30's

  You can do that with the free clubs from the Master tees. Big whoopee.

  YJ, I know its no whoopie, my reply was in direct response to this statement:

  Joshjrn:

  But if you want a shot at putting for birdie, you are going to have to upgrade once you jump tiers. 

  Which is why i quoted it to begin with. I was merely pointing out that the statement while true for some, is not a definitive one.

  Start posting low 30's at Bethpage and Oakmont and I'll recant.

  Mind you this was my first day back from vacation and my putting was horrible, but here's my first attempt at BPB Back 9 (the longer of the two) using mediocre equipment. I couldnt drain a putt to save my life for some reason, but it is proof that i atleast had a birdie putt on almost every hole and made 3.

  MC-When you insert the URL for the scorecard change the width to 480 or less and you will see the whole card.

  I apologize if I came of as asserting that you were never going to get a birdie putt, ever. That's of course not true. However, there are 1-2 holes on each side that you just flat out won't be able to birdie unless you knock it in from the fairway or chip it in after you badly run the green. 

  Can you play it safe, lay up on those holes, knock it down for par, and still get a very decent score by playing your long irons well on the rest of the course? Absolutely.

  That said, it's going to be extremely difficult to compete against the highest levels of competition who simply have more birdie opportunities than you do.

  Even on a perhaps successful first date, one must remember two things...brevity and what the mouth is for.

  I agree. Fast and loose is good also. For some.

  I don't even know you but, with a sense of humor like yours, I do believe I'm forming a crush already. 

  Chocolate?
