What I've found about golf and the many different people I've played with is there is a wide range as far as playing by the rules goes and that's fine. Just don't brag about your score when everyone in your group knows you can easily add 10-20 more to that tally.
I probably don't golf as much as some in here but it's actually hard to break a 100 playing by the rules.

Totally agree on this point. If you don't want to play by the rules then go ahead, it's not affecting me. But when you're looking for a positive reaction from me when you pretend to shoot 89, it's really hard to not roll your eyes.
While I'm thinking about this, is there any other sport where people break the rules as often as golf? Nothing really comes to mind.
