It’s that time of year, golfers are hitting the greens and golf jokes are starting to come in on our site. I am not a golf expert, actually I have never even played golf. But, I live with a golf pro whose motto is if there’s no snow on the ground, it’s open season to golf.
The funny thing about golf for me is that everyone gets excited to go out and golf, “let’s get some beer, some cigars, and have a great time on the course,” I hear the guys say. My husband will wake up early, go through some pretty bizarre pre-game stretching rituals and heads to the course smiling, prepared to have one hell of a day and golf better than all his friends, I’m sure. But, it always sounds like something very different happens when they actually get to the course.
This sounds more like their golfing days…after the first shot is fired the first f-bomb is also fired into the air, and soon after that the first club is tossed further than the last shot traveled. They all stop talking, and my husband’s most mile mannered friend turns into the incredible hulk and every shot sends him into more and more rage. Often times the words “I hate this game” or “why did we even come out here” are muttered. Now, maybe I’m just not getting it, but this doesn’t sound like much fun to me. But, one thing seems to always save the day for them - just when they think the day could not get any worse, from the distance comes the beautiful sound of a cart headed the wrong way up the fairway. Now when this happens I’m sure their eyes get wide, the smiles come back, and they begin to salivate. The cart brings the only thing that could possibly calm them down and that, as we all know, is an ice cold beer from the cart girl. Then, when the first beer is cracked they begin talking about the 19th hole. Regardless how bad they played that day, they sit back, relax, and drink the bad shots away and say their what-ifs…what if I didn’t hit that one out of bounds, what if I would have made that putt, what if I just wouldn’t have chucked that one. Ahhh, the 19th hole.
Then, even if they played awful they begin to think about the next time they can get together and do it all over again. So stressful and yet so fun.
