Yes. It is a golfers excuse for everything, especially why he does not compare well to another dude. We golfers can always point to the fact that we are too busy perfecting our golf games to concern ourselves with other, more trivial pursuits. We are always trying to improve what is called one’s ‘handicap’ in golf.
Me saying what was Basho’s handicap is like saying – yes he is better than me in every way but I might be able to beat him in a round of golf. Maybe one had to be there at the beginning of the game of golf at St. Andrews to get it?
