this sounds right. I can see it two ways though.
One: they are shooting under par on 76/140 courses routinely, which definitely makes +6.5 very plausible.
Two: There are a lot of pros that live around my area and I have seen some of their scores and they are shooting around par, nothing that much better than the top amateurs.
My theory is that the pros basically are "peaking" for each tournament that they play. They are the most prepared and the most focused, and I am sure they practice A TON more mon-wed of a tournament than they do on off weeks or the offseason.
