Friday Wisdom – Golf

I don’t play golf myself, but there’s a golf course and country club close to my house and you’ll often see golf carts on the road head over for a round. When I drive out of the neighborhood, I can see the fairway and it is crowed this time of year. Well here is what little I know about golf:

Bumper Sticks for Golf Carts:

You’re the best by par

Green and bear it

Having a Rough Time

You Drive Me Crazy

Putter Late Than Never

A Chip Off The Old Block

What is a golfer’s favorite bird? Just any birdie they can get.

Did you know golfers always carry an extra pair of socks incase they get a hole in one.

Many golfers don’t like pie, too many slices.

Do you know why golf pros teach you to keep your head down while learning to golf? So you won’t see them laughing.

On election day golfs cast asbent-tee ballots.

I told my golfing neighbor that I was bad at golf. He said, “Join the club.”

They use the word “golf” because all the other four letter words were taken.

I asked my golfing friend what he got on his last game. He said, “Depressed.”

He said he took up golf to get his mind off work. Then started to work to take his mind off golf.

Three ways to improve your golf score: Take lessons, practice more, learn to cheat.

It’s easier to hit the fairway when you tee off, if you aren’t too picky about which fairway you hit.

  1. Those last few were the best ones. I snorted at the 4-letter word one. BTW, had a Starbucks latte with raspberry syrup the other day. Thought of you. πŸ™‚

  2. “…So you won’t see them laughing.” That one completely cracked me up! I took golf lessons quite a few years ago, and laughter was the only appropriate response to my efforts. πŸ™‚

  6. There is Flog, a more fun version of the game.
    A whole sub section of the card industry is devoted to birthday cards for golfers, well mainly golfers who identify as men. It is always hard to choose the right card for male relatives, especially if you want to avoid ribald cards referring to sex or drinking. So any chap who has ever been near a golf course will get a golf card from his aunt or mother-in-law every single year.

    I’d heard most of these but not the one about keeping your head down, LOL. Good timing with this list since the pros are teeing it up this weekend at the PGA Championship in Rochester, NY.
