@drewgriffiths wow you should be off scratch. I've played with scratch golfers and never known them to consistently swing the club and land nearly every ball in the same area.
I played off 11 and at times what I thought was a perfet shot it got punished be small detail, ie.... the wind, landing fractionally on a downslope.
even Pro's on tour have slight miss-haps otherwise every player would finish at least 18 under par every game

@SpurS1964 I’ve been told the same by two PGA professionals, Joanne Lee and Jamie Hillier. Both said theres no reason why I can’t one day play off scratch 😆.
But not just being punished by the wind or landing on a slope that goes against you, you can also be punished for pulling out the wrong club even on a par 4 and leaving an approach shot you haven’t practised. You may have seen Dustin Johnson being asked what shot he has for, I think it was 50 yards, and he said he doesn’t leave 50 yards, he prefers more. I had a shot at my club on a par 5, 40 yards. I said to my mate I hated the shot and would have preferred 60-70 yards. I pulled a 7 iron and chipped in it for birdie and said “Maybe I should like that shot more” but easily I could have played that shot and left myself with a 2 putter whereas as I’d have more chance of 1 putting it if I played from 60-70 yards. I think on the front 9 of my club, I pull driver out twice and all but one hole is par 4 or 5.
