My wife is a 5th year player this season.  We play together nearly every Sunday.  She always plays from the forward-most tees.  Sometimes she will hit first if it makes sense to keep us on pace.  We only play on...

Tell me, would you guys be 'annoyed' by this golf course behavior?  Note:  Some stories are from a loooong time ago when we were young stupid and some from this past season as well.  All true and some you may find...

Personally, I can open up my 58* wedge and hit it pretty much straight up in the air.  Why WOULD I need a 64* wedge?  I didn't even like the 60* wedge I owned because it required nearly perfect contact to...
