I usually get advertisements that have to do with what I have been searching for. We all do.  

But how in the Wide World of Sports did I get an ad for Shot Puts! 😛 I threw shot in High School a couple of times, but jeepers!

Looks like a golf ball? That's all I got. That or the singularity is near. Hide yo kids. Hide yo wife.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Maybe you searched out "putt shots" and forgot one of the "t's" on putt

"My ball is on top of a rock in the hazard, do I get some sort of relief?"

So, how many "shot puts" did you all buy? The one I get is that hottie Russian babe who wants to be my caddy.

Cool. I did that in junior high along with the discus. I stopped growing in ninth grade so I did not get very far with that. I might still have the 8th and 9th grade discus records though. Not bad for a 5'-8" guy.

Maybe you guys were searching for Russian brides? Some of them have been known to throw the shot put.

Yeah, I've been doing shopping for the wife so now I get a ton of bra and underwear ads.  Pretty cool the way it works.

I get a lot of "Meet mature women" and "Russian singles online" from Google ads. Don't ask me how they figure out that's what I need.

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf. 
    • They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
