I get it.

But most golf courses I've been around won't let you tee off if you're dressed like that.


What? You gotta be dressed like a coked out Cuban pimp?


Only if you're John Daly.


That dudes pretty cool.

Even for a golfer.

John Daly is definitely 'the guy momma warned you about". Google some Youtube of him and Kid Rock playing some charity tournaments.

Do you play golf? Or do lay out quietly in the woods all day long, ignoring the fire ants, claymore buried in the sand trap, smoking a cigarette while waiting for golfers to enter the kill zone?

Or did I get the last part backwards?

Those plaid shorts of yours? Perfect.

Only drink beer while on the course (preferably Bud Light in cans) - clubhouse is for martinis or Manhattan type cocktails.

Golf carts are okay, NEVER carry your clubs or egads, a pull cart. Caddies are even better. $50 minimum tip.

Even if you play with Topflite brand balls or the like; when someone asks you "what are you playing" when you have a lost ball, always say "Pro V1". They'll think you're a baller. Maybe you'll get a free $5 ball out of the deal.

Gimmes are only taken when offered. That being said, offer the first gimme. It'll soften up your playing partner.

Footwedge only when you're positive you can't be seen. Same with taking a piss - make sure you're in the woods out-of-bounds. This will come after multiple Bud Lights and there's never a restroom around when you need it on a golf course. Regarding going #2, plan ahead. Golf towels can be used in a pinch. BTDT.

Only yell FORE when you're reasonably sure someone is going to get hit. Maybe for near misses too. Keep it to a minimum. People will think you're a hack if you do it too much.

Don't throw clubs, yell expletives, or have a general temper tantrum when you hit a bad shot. It's inevitable in golf, even for the best pros. Quiet pain like an Apache being thrown off a cliff also shows you're a baller.

When you shank one 2 fairways over, own it. When you hit it on the green from there people will think you're a baller.

Too much time at the ball washer and people will talk.

Tip when they take the clubs from your car, tip the help that cleans and loads your clubs after the round, and for the love of God - tip the beer cart girl well. She'll come back to see you more often.

You're away, sir.



I've got to rethink my anti golf thing I'm picking up what you're putting down here CF cool

Salty, there's a couple of those tournaments now where one of the Par 3's is completely surrounded by grandstands. Like a Metallica concert when guys step up on the box and drop one a foot from the hole.

Indeed, I did. I was most impressed that he seemed to think that having a wife who pays the bills was somehow a negative. My wife pulls down seven figures as I post pictures of soup. I am proud of that.

I know duck911 loves golf. Maybe you two can link up and play couple games. Then enjoy some dessert coffee..xoxoxoxo


Yes, I have a 4 handicap. Played (intermural) in college. Was too busy parting to play collegiately.

Love me some golf, 2-3 days a week (rounds), another day or two pitching and putting for practice.

I have a hard time believing any respectable golf course would let deflave in the course. If for no other reason than drunk driving, rolling golf carts.

If'n you want to meet JD, go to Augusta, GA the first weekend in April. Look for a quarter million dollar RV parked along side Hooter's on Washington (main drag). $20 bucks gets you a t-shirt with his signature on it. It may or may not have a cigarette burn on it too.

Notice I don't post about my losses laugh

I am a profitable sports bettor, with about a 23% ROI over the last 5 years.... but it ebbs and flows. I have had a great 2 weeks in NFL (went small on tonight's NFL game but cleared $142). But I can go weeks in the tank.

It is not about big glitzy hits, it is about grinding out profit over time.

But the science, math, and research behind it is fun, since I am very analytical.

Use to play up until 25 years ago. It was a real epiphany, realizing all the time wasted playing a game I really did not enjoy. Kind of like not watching sports that last few years.
