Default Golf golf golf golf golf!

Tis my Daddies birthday today and as a keen golfer I decided to take him to a pitch and putt and have a silly afternoon! Haven't played in AGES but have always thoroughly enjoyed it...

... and I was GENIUS! So impressed with myself! I don't think I quite have the right etiquette for a proper golf course as such (I was leaping about and cheering and my Daddy was farting loudly and we were charging about) buuuut we played well!

I nearly got a birdie I did too! *excited* Have improved so so much and think I'm going to have to do this more regularly as I can hit the blooming thing straight, I can hit it up in the air... I just need to improve on putting and hitting further (when I try to hit it further I force it through and end up going squeewy... though towards the end I had learned to **** it using my shoulders and not my arms )

Anyone else play le golf here?!


*likes it*

LOL also, funny thing on the course, after I tee'd off a genius shot I looked up and saw a chappy behind stood over a pondy bit with a fishing rod.

Me: "Woaaaaaaaaah Daaad! Check it out! You can fish here too!"
My Daddy: "Erm... Dear, that's a ball retriever rod!"

Doh!

He showed me his retriever when we'd finished and they're ace!

*edit* fashion wise, cos it's a P&P I wore the jeans! Last time I went on a proper golf course though I wore some short shorts (they were almost hot-pant-esque) and I borrowed a pair of two sizes-too-big golf shoes as I didn't have my own (changed into my trainers half way across the course ) I was UBERLY frowned upon though

HAHahahaha, one time my daddy told me that when I tee'd off to shout "FOOOORE" like a proper golfer would (we were on a different but equally posh golf course). So I kinda acknowledge him, had a few practice shots and then lined up....

Me: *swoosh - CLINK - WOooSH* "FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE!"
Daddy: "SKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN"
Us: "BWahahahahHAHAHAHhaHAHHAhahahahha"
Other People: "Tsh tsh" *frowning faces*



My Pa's a legend!

Never played anything other than Crazy Golf (which probably dosn't count), my ex boss was trying to convince me it was great fun, I still kind of think it is spoiling a good walk.

I have the hand-eye coordination of a...of a...of a something with no hand-eye coordination I'd probably end up killing someone (or myself )

I used to play a lot before my mates from school moved away from the area. We're having a reunion round on the 7th of June though, can't wait!

I useds to go to the driving range quite regularly with my brother. Then when I started this job I was spending a lot of time staying down in Kent and the hotel I normally used had an 18 hole course so I'd often have 9 holes before dinner. I was totally useless though.

The only time I've managed to hit two balls straight together was when I stood on a rake.

I hate golf...

A golf course is the wilful misuse of a perfectly good rifle range.

Maybe you could combine the two?
