Agreed, to each his own unless you're playing competitively. My father and his CNY golf buddies had the asterisk, which was used if:
a) you have a match-play bet and are only keeping track of strokes for posterity.
b) you completely blow up a hole and are taking the max triple bogey. Thus, for a par 5 it would be 8*.
I learned about the asterisk because across four summers from age 14 to 17 I caddied most weekends, each round carrying two bags. That was in addition to my side job at Agway and going to school! Was happy because I made decent money but wow, schlepping up and down those hills at Drumlins with two heavy bags was no joke.

My neighborās playing in an indoor league in the Cuse this winter with a couple of his brothers and another golfer. Said it was good fun and the folks who ran it were good guys.
Kinda like getting yer Mother a baseball glove.
