I was playing a few weeks ago with a guy that's a pretty decent player, as well as 2 other hacks (including father in law!!). On the first tee, he says "So what are we playing for? How about £5, £5 and £10". That's a £20 or close to $40 stake. I don't normally like playing for that sort of cash. But I really wanted to take this guy out. But the other two guys only wanted to play for the usual £1, £1, £1. So the guy sides up to me and says how about the two of us playing an individual match within our match for £10 as well.
I was OK about it but it changed the outlook of the game. I was really trying to beat him which I think affected my play. Turns out we halved the match on 18, but it got me thinking, any of you guys high rollers out there?
What's the typical wager in your regular fourball. Does money motivate or is it just the winning?
And don't get me started on that turkey......
