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.

It was in Tin-Cup...but I had heard it before that movie.

When I played on the golf team in high school we used to quote Tin Cup all the time.

"It's a lock. I hit my 7 like John Daley hits his 3" or "I'm not going left of those trees. I'm not going right of those trees. I'm going over those trees, with a little draw" theres a bunch more.

do you putt much?

So many shots to choose from! Which do you think was your best?

that's an Adolf Hitler (two shots in the bunker). If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt. ~ Dean Martin Steve Ovett - ugly, but a good runner That's the most enthusiastic fade I've seen for a while. (It's a slice) SLMF - so long mother... (you can get the rest) If you find golf relaxing, you're not doing it right (Bob Hope, I believe). Golf is so popular simply because it's it's the best game in the world to be bad at. (AA Milne, author of Winnie the Pooh) And a personal favorite... That's the best three-putt I've ever seen. (When just starting, nearly 5 years ago - I topped the drive, thinned my second and sank a twisty putt I gave up trying to work out the line of and simply hit. It was my second-ever birdie)

A J.R. Tolkein--a great read...A Ray Charles--Didnt see the break

"People think the size of the head is most important. Wrong. It's getting a quality shaft. test different shafts to see which goes the straightest. Also, more degrees of loft on the head is better than less. Eleven degrees is about right."

That was Jim Marshall, Leon Lett was the one who had the ball swatted out of his hands at the goal line after returning a fumble 90 or so yards in the Super Bowl.

Great thread guys!! Let's here more!! Some of my favs are... "Putt like a kid" and "N.A.T.O." (Not Attached To Outcome)
"Hey did you know there building a Walmart out here?" "Really, where are they gonna put it?" "In between your ball and mine."

If I'm not mistaken, Tiger has used this line before. He was playing a casual round, maybe with Michael Jordan or Charles Barkley, again I'm not 100%.

" Next time, use your turn signal" - big slice or hook

Kinda lame, but gets a laugh or two. I dont know what I like better, playing golf or talking smack...

When you walk up to a ball, and its behind yours, yell ..........

    • On the subject of teenagers in professional tournaments there is a kid (Kris Kim) who is a member of my club in England and is at my old school. He’s 16. He’s playing in the pga tour event in Texas this week. Shot 69 yesterday for T31 and is -2 today through 5 holes. T55 and on the cut line. I really hope he makes the cut. Will be awesome.    His dad I believe is a teaching pro and his mum was on the LPGA Tour for a while. 
    • I have two contenders here that stick out to me: In second place, a putt to win the hole playing the 16th hole at Burnham and Berrow. Playing foursomes and the green has a big bank at the front then a flat bit and then it goes up again to a back shelf. My partner had hit our second shot onto the back shelf. We were 2up at the time and he was being a little wobbly so we didn’t want to lose the hole. Our oppo were conceded a 4 and my partner told me to just lag it down there nicely. 20 year old me meant to do that and failed. I hit it a bit hard and it was definitely going to clear the tier and probably run off the front of the green, but it hit the hole right in the middle and went in. My partner was very happy we won the hole but quite upset at my ability to follow instructions.    Number 2 is my most memorable. I was about 16 playing in the junior knockout at my club. We get to the 10th hole - long par 4 and index 2. I didn’t hit a very good drive, hit my second up about 60 yards short and pitched on to maybe 25 feet. I started walking and I got this feeling. I knew I was going to hole it. There was no doubt at all. I’ve never felt like that any other time in my life but this one putt was a certainty. It was February and the greens had been recently hollow tined so they were in awful shape. I didn’t even line it up. I hit my putt and it bumped and bounced all over the place until it went in the middle of the hole. If I could bottle up that feeling and sell it I’d be up there with Bezos and musk. Mind blowing!
    • It's strange how ONE person can be THAT much different/better/whatever than anyone else.
    • I saw a YouTube review on a bunch of ball brands and the Maxfli Tour X did very well in comparison. I bought a sleeve and found them to be excellent in feel and distance. But I’m a lousy golfer so nobody probably cares about my opinion. 😃
