Whats your favorite golf slang term or saying..

[mikelz]

My fav is "whipped cream on sh!t" - scrambling all over the hole, yet saving par. Or what happened to me last weekend, blading a SW out of the bunker, hitting the lip, and rolling to within 5 feet of the pin.

I thought whipped cream on s#!t was sinking an eight footer for 8.

[Crafty]

An O.J Simpson: Got away with it

A ladyboy: Looks like an easy hole but all is not what it seems

A condom: Safe, but it didn't feel real good

A circus tent: A BIG top

A Paris Hilton: An expensive hole

Have one about Elton John but its borderline inappropriate for this forum. PM me if you want to hear it.

Hitting it fat: “Chubby”
Lots of lip outs: "burning more lips than a drunken flame swallower"
Someone rolls up with one company’s bag, woods, irons, wedges, balls, and putter: [COLOR="blue"]“nut-hugger”, “Costco pack”, or “gift pack” [/COLOR ](Sadly my bag is evolving towards a Nike nut-hugger setup)
Aggressive putts and chips that go in: “stuffed it”

"Did you get caught in your g string on that one??" after leaving a putt short

[JKilgore44]

"Gotta let my n_ts hang" - After hitting a huge drive

"A monkey can do it the second time" - After hitting a crappy shot and performing a practice shot that ends up much better than the original.

My uncle would always say "Whipped cream on sh** " if he holed a long putt or chipped after messing up a hole, e.g. holing a long putt for an 8.

When a friend leaves a putt way short: "Take off your panties and putt it."

After I make a 2 on a par-3, I've been known to put my tee in the ground, back off, look at my playing partners, and I'm "Oh I'm sorry, did anyway make a 1?"

"Must have paid your dues on time" ... when your partner gets a members bounce.
"Hit something" ... as your 10 footer runs 10+ feet by the hole.
"Does your husband play golf?" ... to someone who leaves a putt short

[Harold]

"Snake" Double break or more putt.
"Charlie Brown" Hitting a branch or other object with the ball ricocheting straight down.
"Gardening" Cleaning the putting green or area around a ball.

[MunkeyGolfer]

"Lift your skirt up, Alice" after leaving a putt short

[vjr13]

"Lift your skirt up, Alice" after leaving a putt short

I do the same, only afterwords I'll let fly a nice string of naughty words.....

[TheThein11]

I don't have a golf saying but I have a good bowling one. My friends and I always say "Watch out for the alter boy."

That is when one pin is hidden right behind another one. The priest and the alter boy

A laughed hard at the Hitler one. Miine is when you have a ball that you cant seem to lose. Like you hit it and you think its gone, but it's always there. I call that the Rasputin ball. For all who don't know who Rasputin is, he a a Russian healer guy in government in the 1880's and other officals always kept trying to kill him, but he couln't die. One time they shot him 10 times in a burning house and he didnt die! :)

[QWKDTSN]

When a male friend duffs a shot...

"Next time, try hitting it with your purse."

Or "Next time, ask your boyfriend to hit it for you."

[Richie3Jack]

"Cub Scout" = Choking up on the club

"Going Disco" = On the green

"Beef Stew" = Went in the water (because a lot of water on the golf course looks like beef stew)

Dairy Queened = Disqualified

That's a good one. I nearly spilled my coffee on the keyboard between the Hitler shots and Rasputin ball.

There's always "Don't Noonan." You could probably come up with golf slang for a shot for every Caddyshack character. Let's see: Smails: A slice in the woods on #1.

damn i grannied that putt.


should say, at the course i played at some time ago there is a par 3 outside the clubhouse and in full view of all the members in the bar.


its 120 yards with 2 bunkers at the front, the closest bunker is referred to as the grannies bunker and the second bunker is called the wifeies bunker.


which leads to bogeying this particular par 3

i thinned a wedge in to the wifies bunker splashed out and then ended up grannying the putt for a 4.

"It'll play."

Translation: In the center of the fairway of a hole I am not currently playing.
