Sorry but I don't see anything funny about this. This a person who doesn't belong anywhere near a golf course... in fact he shouldn't be let out in public. Most of us get past that tantrum stage at about 6 years old. It's one thing to be angry about a poor shot or a poor round... quite another to completely lose control.

I feel the same, so if a guy cuts Moe's playing partner off, is he gonna tie the guy up and run him over with a lawn mower? Examples like those of his playing partner make me sick. People like that, should be escorted off the course immediately.

The group we play with is very easy going. We kid around and give each other a hard time. You have to have thick skin to play with us. We are, for the most part, quiet when someone is getting ready to hit; however, once the ball is in the air, pretty much anything is fair game. We always have a lot of fun. When we get done playing, we hang around a drink a few beers, usually closing down the pro shop.... winner buys.

When we play for more money, or on the weekends where we are more aware of pure golf etiquette, we don't allow all the trash talking and goofing off. And we are never like that during a tournament. But on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, we drink, play golf, and sometimes we get to talk about Garry hitting 20 balls into the drink on 17 then asking to barrow one for the last hole. Makes for a fun, relaxing day.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee

i was playing in a HS match against a kid who hummed his 4iron into a tree...only to see the club coming right back at him from about 10ft...left a nice cut and a bruised cheek. once we got him back on his feet the coaches picked him up in their cart and dragged his sorry behind back to the clubhouse while he got his ear chewed off haha. i learned my club throwing lesson when i tossed my sasquatch 3wood into my bag after duffing a shot. i snapped the shaft completely in half and had to use my 5iron from the deck on long par 5's the rest of the round, it was a bag choice in retrospect.
