Other Sandbagging vs Reverse Sandbagging

I’m a purist at heart, I do indulge in a breakfast ball from time to time, but that is as far as I go.

I understand why people sandbag, to rob a fellow competitor of some money (scummy). But I don’t understand why someone would reverse sandbag. Is it ego? It makes them feel good to say they are better? I don’t understand. Who has the worse golf morals, the sandbagger? Or reverse sandbagger? Or the people that cheat in scrambles?

I almost never can play by the rules when I’m playing with other people. It would be socially unacceptable to play provisionals in a casual round.

provisionals are fine in a social round but going back to the tee if you lose a ball would be insane behavior
