Yeah, "sister in law" usage could make holidays a little awkward!

That's a good one. I've never heard that before.

I like giving my clubs nicknames. My favorite: "Time to pull out Mr. Happy" (my 3-wood)

I find that a nice F Bomb usually does it, but I have always liked "That ball stopped like a dropped cat." I will also use "My ball was taking arieal photos of yours as it flew over them" when I bomb one past my playing partners.

A sister in-law .. Your up there,but know you shouldn't be

holy goodness... that's great. Problem I play golf with wife's sister's husband... so we would basically be telling each other...

"Let the big dog eat!" - I don't know where this came from but my buddies and I always say this after someone blasts a long drive into the fairway.

guy in my work league was all over this one... usually followed by "Tee 'em High and Let 'em Fly"

ariel pictures... nice

Another one I like after someone leaves a birdie or par putt short "don't forget your purse" ...simple but effective.

not so much a saying, but when my ball slices horribly out of bounds, I give it a little wave. that always gets a laugh. and to steal from U. S. Grant, when someone whiffs, say "I'm glad your exercising, but what is that little white ball for?"

Golf related....

When the drink girl comes by, my buddy and I always have the same routine..
(said loudly enough to embarrass her)

Hey D, shall we give her a tip?

Tip nuth'in, I'm gonna give her the whole thing!


We do this to our waitress too if she seems like they type that would enjoy it. Most are pretty fun loving.

On my tombstone: "If this is the worst thing that ever happens to me, I'm doing just fine!"

    • #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.
    • Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.
    • Tiger on the Today show today. At 3:25 he says he's working on keeping his arms in more and rotating his hips better. Nice. 
    • Day 11- Slow,  short swings with short practice club.
