putting a tiny ball that we paid $4 into a hole that's 4 (and maybe soon 6") across.

I love everything about golf. I guess what I love about it the most is the challenge. No matter how good you are, you could always be better.

I love being out on the course, hitting the rare shot that goes where I want it to, and spending time with my dad, brothers and grandfather.

I love that your stadium is a beautiful setting with all kinds of wildlife.

I love that for four hours it takes my mind off of everything that bothers me like work or family illnesses

I love meeting new people... golfers are almost universally nice on the golf course even if they are jerks in other contexts

I love hitting a good shot

I love playing a round that lowers my handicap

I love golf for a lot of reasons, but my number one has to be just getting out on the course and not worrying about anything but playing golf. Its stress free and thats why I try to play so much.

I kinda love everything about golf, since its an experience I enjoy. Whether its the shots I'll remember forever or the shots I'd like to forget, there's the feeling of playing golf that I love. I especially love tee times(I always look forward to the tee time I've booked for me and 3 other friends/family at my home course), since tee times are the start of what we love to do...

like the topic :)

Watching it predominantly and just being amazed at how good those guys are!

But when playing I love pulling off those shots that are 1 in a million (well for me anyway). Sinking that 50 ft putt, the approach to 3 ft, etc etc, it's all relative u know what I mean? Your first Birdie, first eagle, first time you hit that shot over the water carry that you haven't done before.

And then there is the ambience - some of the young ones may not understand (I never did) - but just appreciating the beauty of being outside in the wonderful surroundings of a well kept course...

Best of all?.. coming home to my wife, and for a change having the chance tell her about my day!

Cheers
Welshy

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
