Last weekend I was at the range working on drills from a previous lesson.  Anyway, a middle-aged couple is a couple of stations away from me.  She's obviously new to the game and he's trying to impart all his magnificent golfing wisdom.  I don't know if they are in a relationship, just friends, or even if the guy is actually an instructor (I hope not).   Anyway, I'm focusing on what I have to do but this guy is loud and obnoxious with a touch of arrogance in his tone and dressed like he just left a photo shoot for the cover of Golf Digest.  You all know what I mean.  It's that tone that says, "I know what I'm talking about because I am a golf god."  Here are few of his little gems that he actually said.

1.  Swing that driver and let the bid dog eat.

2.  I wouldn't exactly say you are a slow learner.

3.  I know 8 year olds that would kick your ass on the course. [Yes he actually said this and subsequently tried to make a weak "recovery" comment that they would give him a run for his money too......as he was choking on his own words.]

What an idiot.  Guys like this give the sport a bad name.  Anyone here any comments that are equal or better than these?

Let the big dog eat!

I'm going to make use of that phrase.  Haha.  Thanks for posting; sorry I can't contribute, but those are some good lines.

I have too many to list.

My favorite is still the strapping young 22-year-old hitting 100-yard duck hooks with the driver being told to swing more to right field by his instructor. Hmmm.
