I don't really understand the mindset of someone who takes mulligans. Even if I play in a charity outing and buy them, I don't use them. I have found that when I do - I hit the same bad shot twice. I think most people do. I also admire anyone who can make a great recovery 2nd shot. Wouldn't you rather do that than a do-over? I'm not talking about playing a provisional here - I'm talking about when a ball is in play, but someone doesn't like it so they hit another one.

I know this will shock you, but I don't take mulligans either. Just don't do it. Can't remember the last time I took one. Even in a 2-man better ball tournament where we were allowed to buy up to 2 mullies per side (money went to charity), I bought them then forgot to use them. It just doesn't fit my approach to the game.

nope. some days of golf are just for fun and practice and some days are for money. money days are straight up. do you ever improve your lie in the fairway? wipe mud off of your ball?

Nope, don't do any of those things either. I'd rather play golf.
