Many a golfer prefers a golf cart to a caddy because it cannot count, criticize or laugh.

Three possible outcomes of club selection:
1. Its the right club, but you decide it's the wrong club
2. It's the right club, but you think it might be too little club so you try to kill it, or you think it might be too much club, so you quit on the shot
3. It's the wrong club

If your typical round is 85 and you shot a 95, you've had what is called an "off game."
Wouldn't this be equally true if you shot a 75?

The reason it's so hard to par the course is half the shots are woods, half the shots are irons, and the third half is putts

Watching from the Club house overlooking the 10 green, we saw a foursome approaching. Having marked their balls, suddenly one of the guys fell down and the three others started a fist fight.

The Golf Captain stormed out from the Club house to separate the fighting men.

"Why are you fighting?" he asked "You see," said one of them, "my partner had a stroke and died just now, and these buggers want to include it on the scorecard."
