Just small stakes to give us something to play for. We play dollar skins and greenies. And I'll usually bet heads up with a couple golfers from my group. We go $5 front and adjust, back and total. We're all fairly even so I never lose a whole lot. And if I'm having a bad day I can still usually manage to win a couple skins or greenies.

Play once or twice a week. Can't play without at least a little action. Almost always get a little Nassau going.

One time and I crushed the shit out of the ball like 200 yards my very first swing. Next 17 holes I think I broke 20 yards once.

I play 4 or 5 times a week when I'm home.
I always play my best golf by myself and that kind of sucks because 1) I don't play by myself that often. 2) I can't bet and make money when I'm playing by myself. 3) When I do bet I usually lose because I'm distracted by my company.

I tend to not pay as much attention to my game when I'm with others and it hurts my game.
When Im by myself its all about golf and I do better.

1-3 times per week. Gamble almost every time I play. Usually the stakes are between 20-50 bones.....depending on the game and the handicaps of the others in the foursome. My club has tourneys once a month and the take home for 1st in the flights is usually around 400-600.

Dont play near as much as I used to once me and the old lady had our second child two years ago.

Hands down the best sport in the world.

A fun game to play is a putting game.

If you are outside the flagstick length away from the hole, you can "call it" if you want......If you 1 putt it, everybody in your group owes you a dollar, if you 2 putt it, no blood. If you are unfortunate enough to 3 or more putt, than you owe everybody in the group a dollar.


It gets real interesting.

We play a similar game....kind of like trash, but every time anyone 3 - putts they owe the pot 3 bucks. Person with the lowest number of putts win the pot over the complete round. It surprisingly gets pretty heavy.

Very fun game.......especially calling lone after you tuck one tight.
We play it when we want to shake things up a little and do something different. I agree, hitting those tight shots or splitting a narrow fairway on your drive is when it's fun to say lone.

I agree with the last 2 sentences. I play with a buddy of mine all the time now who doesn't want to put any $ on the line. It's purely just beers, fun and more beers.

Once a week. Try to get out twice a week but never seem to have the time. Which is why I suck.
