Where, when I finally get to the green, the putting surface is so difficult, nothing ever goes in \u2013 as if every hole is wearing a chastity belt?<\/p>\n<p>Why on earth would I want to put myself through that torture? I have an 18 handicap \u2013 Am I out of my mind? Shouldn\u2019t I be at a smaller, easier course instead of one where tour pros grace the fairways on a regular basis?<\/p>\n<p>And for that one fleeting moment \u2013 in the time it took me to bend over and put my tee in the ground \u2013 I doubted a philosophy that I have held dear for nearly 20 years: That you don\u2019t have to be good at golf to play a good golf course.<\/p>\n<p>But it was only a moment. By the time I was addressing my ball, the thoughts in my mind had changed from the course demolishing me, to me demolishing it. I was literally going to rip that course apart \u2013 with beaver pelt-sized divots for the 100+ swings I was about to take \u2013 I was going to need <i>both<\/i> of the sand\/seed mixture bottles on the cart. And most importantly, I was going to enjoy every minute of it.<\/p>\n<p>So many average golfers allow themselves to be intimidated by a good golf course. If the high greens fees don\u2019t deter them before even stepping foot on the course, the view from the first tee box surely might. You know how the story goes from there: They play a wretched round, blame the course, regret \u201cthrowing their money away,\u201d and vow to never play a so-called upscale golf course again \u2013 all because they\u2019re \u201cnot good enough golfers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What a bunch of B.S. Who says you have to be good at something in order to love it? If that were an actual law, 90% of golfers would have to quit the game because they stink. I\u2019m sorry, but when was the last time you heard something like this: \u201cYou know, I\u2019ve been playing golf for 40 years now and I still can\u2019t shoot anywhere near par. I guess it\u2019s time to quit.\u201d The thing is, you don\u2019t hear stuff like that because people don\u2019t play golf because they are good at it \u2013 they play golf because they <i>love <\/i>it.<\/p>\n<p>So if you love golf, you shouldn\u2019t hesitate to play an awesome golf course if the opportunity presents itself \u2013 no matter how badly it\u2019s probably going to beat you up. As long as you play from the correct tee box, you have nothing to fear \u2013 tee off and enjoy. And don\u2019t worry about your score \u2013 playing a legendary course or even a local \u201cupscale\u201d course isn\u2019t about playing well, it\u2019s about experiencing the best the game has to offer \u2013 and by keeping that in perspective, you\u2019ll never regret forking over the hefty the greens fees.<\/p>\n<p>My round at Kapalua was simply amazing. Sure, I put one in the Pacific Ocean on the signature hole (OK, I put two in). But the course was gorgeous; the scenery unreal; and the weather beautiful. And the cherry on top? I broke 100 with a 96! Now that even surprised me! Great golf courses are meant to be enjoyed\u2026 by everyone. Golf is a game, and you should have fun playing it.<\/p>\n<p><em>This post originally appeared on <a title=\"American Golf\" href=\"http:\/\/www.americangolf.com\" target=\"_blank\">AmericanGolf.com<\/a>&#8216;s blog here: <a title=\"American Golf Blog\" href=\"http:\/\/www.americangolf.com\/blog\/golf-courses\/great-golf-courses-are-meant-to-be-played-by-everyone\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.americangolf.com\/blog\/golf-courses\/great-golf-courses-are-meant-to-be-played-by-everyone<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was standing on the 1st tee at Kapalua Resort in Maui, thinking to myself; \u201cShould I really be playing this course?\u201d Should I really be spending my hard-earned money on a golf course that\u2019s going to kick my butt up and down each and every fairway?
