At least, you hit the fairway, heh, heh, heh - a companion thread to One, ha, ha, ha.

"At least I can play the hole without my pants around my ankles".

I always make a super lame excuse, One of my spikes must be loose! My gloves a bit tight! Forgot to put my golf socks on! My hat was too far forward! I used the wrong colour tee! It's become a running gag now, who can make up the lamest excuse? We've even had,.. Last time I golf wearing my wife's underwear!

This is brilliant.

No witty comebacks here sadly.  I just sarcastically mutter to myself "that'll play".

This thread made me think of this video.

LOL.

This is off topic but the video reminds me.  There is one course that red tee is placed far behind white tee b/c it is a par 5 for women instead of par 4 for men.   But guys don't get it and think it was placed there by mistake.   Instead of minding their own business and play from white tee, they switch back the tees so that red tee is in front of white tee.   The hole already plays 450 yards for men b/c it is long, uphill, and against the wind.  By moving the tee back further, it become almost par 5 hole for men.  At this point, men have 3 choices.  Switch the tees  back to front (be a good Samaritan for groups behind)  and hit from there, hit from white tees (now at where par 5 red tee is), or hit from red tees (which is where white tee should be).   Some will go with choice #3, hit from red tee.

For those who are governed by golf rules, what says you?   Most weekend golfers on the course are playing scramble golf but I'd be interested in what you would do.

When I hit a dribbler that just makes it to the fairway I might say something like:

"See how I held that under the wind"?

Or "Crap" usually works, too.
