Biden is a 6.7 handicap?

Maybe 40 years ago.

I'll play Dementia Joe at a 6.7 for my life savings right now. Dude isn't even capable of driving a golf cart.

Trump is supposed to be pretty good, Ike and JFK were damn good, Kennedy was considered a legit pro level golfer

Trump and Eisenhower are the only two I believe. They both played and apparently Trump is good. Biden’s must be from 40 years ago. Are these age adjusted or when they were in their prime?

Kennedy was damned near an invalid with his back. This was covered up by the media to maintain the myth of Camelot. No way he could play that well.

William Taft isnt even alive.

Some of those guys were good athletes in their day, so it’s not crazy to think the Bush’s for instance were 10 handicappers.

I agree. He probably puts in the time to have a single digit handicap. But I don't believe he has the time to maintain a 2.7. Maybe 10 years ago. But now? No.

that really came on towards the end of his life but from everything I've read about him he was a phenomenal golfer, pretty athletic family, Teddy was drafted by the Packers, iirc

No way someone with a swing like this is a 13 handicap:

I remember reading in an old book that Taft was incredibly fat. He looks like half the dudes I work with.

which is amazing considering his Addison's Disease and back brace (which is what ultimately killed him in Dallas [after he was shot through the throat, he was unable to pitch forward and duck down into the car because his back brace held him up straight - letting the guy from the grassy knoll air him out]).

Taft was a top 5 golfer, could absolutely smash the driver.
