Yesterday I played a round at Stoneridge in Northern Idaho with my dad. We play pretty fast so there was a lot of waiting and play throughs due to a packed course. As we were waiting on the 3rd tee box for the foursome in front of us to tee off something hilarious happened. One of the guys (he looked like a biker with the handle bar mustache) stepped up, took a huge swing and on his down swing he ripped a loud, greasy fart. It sounded wet and all his buddies were laughing as were me and my dad. Whats worse is his shot sliced hard right and hit the side of a condo that lined the fairway. Being the smart ass that I am I yelled "hey buddy you need some toilet paper?". He snapped his neck back at me and gave me the finger..lmao Ithought he was going to charge at me. Lol:-D

I let one go on a par 3 last week. It was during my backswing on the teeshot, and I had to check my swing as my Uncle and I just lost it laughing. Haha.

With that said, I wouldn't say something like that to someone I don't know. Laughing is one thing, heckling a big biker guy for farting after he hits a house with his tee shot is a good way to get your ass kicked.

I wonder if anyone has a pre shot routine that includes a fart if they are playing alone? :-D

It actually was a shart. Personally I cant fart at will though sometimes I wish I could. lol

dunno...I've seen a number of "grunters", but no "farters". I guess its not much different than weight lifters expelling a little breath before their move only using a different orifice.

Chuckle.   I can't say I have not farted on a tee box before but this one sure tops it.

You should given him a golf tip - "It's all that tensing up that is causing you to fart as you swing."   I wonder if he'd still give you the finger ... LOL.

Had he let it go on the through swing he could have added up to 15 yards on that slice piercing the condo!

I have had to pause momentarily before tee shots to let one out silently - otherwise, it's coming out at 80 decibels during my swing.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
