Golf: Obsession, passion, addiction, other?

[FX(TM)]

the real question is, Golf or sex?

Depends if I'm playing well.

the real question is, Golf or sex?

I pity the woman (or man) who poses that question to his/her golfing spouse.

[Shanker]

I'm all of the above as well...its a healthy addiction?..?! lol...I literally want to quit after a round and come morning, im ready for tee time...

[FHopper]

aficionado, I love everything about it.

[Outfoxed]

quickly moving from addicted to obsessed.

yeah its pretty sick......although like mentioned before, once winter hits, the tournaments are over etc..I dont think too much about it and rarely visit this site
once golf is "in the air" i get right into it

first round of the year is tomorrow...kinda nervous/excited...not sure which one

Obsession and addiction are the perfect descriptors for my feelings towards golf.


The only thing I'm passionate about is my girlfriend.







Ok....and golf....

The answer to that question can be answered this way. After which are you immediately thinking about what you will do next time? After which can you decied to play again with almost no recovery time? Afte which do you spend 30 minutes rehashing the experience over the beverage of your choice? BF Skinner should have invented Golf, it fits almost any defination of operant conditoning I could think of. Really only a women can make you as crazy.

I play Saturday and Sunday, sometimes 2 rounds on both days.
I go to the range 3 times a week.
I scrub my clubs before every round.
I buy 4 different Golf magazines a month.
I watch all 4 rounds of both the European and PGA tours every week.
I play Tiger Woods on the xbox, Wii Sport Golf, and Links 2003 (!) on the PC.
My Room is full of books like 'The illustrated history of the Ryder cup' and 'The Science of Golf'.
Most of my iPhone apps are Golf related and my laptop is full of swing videos, instruction videos and the official, 211 page R & A 'Rules of Golf'.

I'm not sure any of those words cover it.

I'm in complete Denial ... That's my story and I'm sticking to it ...
