I've decided this is my last year of league play. I have reached a point where I want to play golf with people I both like and respect. I'm fine with playing with strangers - chances are I'll never see them, let alone play with them again, but you have to play with the same people during the course of the league and I don't want to play with some of them.

My last league of any kind was a bowling league 20 years ago. We played the first weeks matches against a team of ringers (who all easily averaged over 200). First week is scratch , while setting your handicaps. They won all four points (3 games and total) while setting their averages around 150. And they weren't making excuses either, they were like, "all we want to do is win the points." That was enough of handicap leagues of any kind for me.
