I'd be interested in the opinions of others who have golfed there for a hacker such as myself.  |
Just because the golf course is exclusive and/or expensive doesn't mean its members are any better than you are. I know plenty of people who golf only the finest golf courses but routinely shoot where you do. Also in a work/networking setting I find it more detrimental to be a better golfer than your peers than being a worse golfer. If you replace throwing clubs and swearing with a little self-depreciating humor it might actually make a better impression professionally than if you were a scratch golfer and blew them away. Your only as embarrassed as you make yourself embarrassed. It's a great golf course, enjoy the scenery , that's why you're there.
