Everyone gets a chance to show his or her talents. This doctrine treats
the "handicap" in a different way,
it allows ANY player to play right along with the "big boys" without
having to feel inferior.
In the standard game, there is a handicap that is supposed to even the
score...sort of.
This fairness doctrine equalizes the FEELINGS of the individual players.
No longer will
the victimized player feel bad. The best players will be OBLIGATED to
congratulate the
victims.
| This doctrine is simple: in order to make this new game of
golf FAIR, we'll
level the playing field so everyone has a chance. We have to go
BEYOND the traditional handicap. We need to equalize the FEELINGS of
each player.
If one player has a good shot, all the others in the foursome get as many chances as needed to make a shot of equal quality. This eliminates "elitism" and smugness of the player or players who happened to get lucky on that particular shot. The theory behind this radical change is that all the players innately have the talent to play well. They may not have had the time to practice so they were actually prevented from proving themselves. Or, they may have simply been victims of an unfortunate lie which hurt their chances to manifest their true talent. So, they will all get the chance to show how good they really are!. This is equality in the face of diversity. No one can deny that this improved rule will build self-esteem, not destroy it. |
