The only good things about golf:
- the last 3 holes of a championship tournament
- video game golf is okay

I got to visit a Golf Channel production trailer once and the contrast is funny between how calm it looks on TV and how stressed they get in the trailer

I birdied 18, it was a good finish. Slightly pull hooked my drive into the right rough and didn't have a good go for the green shot, so I hit 6 iron to just short of the water and had 83 left to the pin. A nice three quarter gap wedge left me a four foot uphill right breaker which I made.

no I just had a good hole, I'm not an internet posting golfer that hits my driver 350 on a bad day

it was a 530 par five with a down hill tee shot and uphill seconds. There's no chance of me hitting the green unless I hit a 250+ drive which happens like once every three rounds

so really I hit a 230 yard drive then and 160 yard shot that cut part of the distance off because of the angle I took

I only had two birdies on the day and the first was draining a stupid 50 foot putt

Golf seems like a really good, enjoyable sport to play with your friends once you're too old and frail to have fun playing something interesting like basketball, or football, or even softball. That soccer game with the giant inflatable ball things you wear looks sick as hell too. I'm sure I'll start playing golf once my knees give out though.

quote:

The Birth of 18 Whiskey Shots

There is a tall tale, although I’ve played golf in Scotland so I believe it to be true, that when deciding how many holes would complete a round of golf it merely took a fifth of whiskey and a shot glass. To polish off the fifth, it required the consumption of 18 shots. So why not 18 holes? Thus, the relationship of golf and drinking began as well as the 18 holes of golf we are accustomed to playing.

Bullshit or not that's a cool backstory

also I played Valhalla a few weeks ago, that's a course that requires you to walk and have a caddy

it was cool and fun, plus I am going to be a hole marshal there at the PGA this year so that will be cool and fun too

I birdied 13 where Sergio bogeyed and we win the Ryder cup, that was hybrid plus gap wedge and a 15 foot putt

E: i teed of from like 30 yards in front of where the Ryder cup tees were, it was probably 3 wood from there since it was a big down hill shot and I think the pros were hitting 5 or 6 but I still loving birdied it

tennis is good too, I'm a 4.0 and was a 4.5 back in the 90s when I got paid to play tennis for an NAIA school, so that was cool and good

I like golf better now, but I started playing a Usta league this year after a 16 year tennis hiatus

basically you should play both

Worst score in our 8 team scramble tourney.


Had fun though and got in some really amazing chips.
