One of my younger co-workers on the phone minutes ago, "So you want to walk the front nine and get a kart on the back nine? Or should we walk the WHOLE thing? We gotta work tomorrow ya know". embarassedlaugh.gif I just wanted to jab.gif him.

Hey don't knock it Pappy. They gotta drink beer when golfing! And drinking lots of beer requires the use of a motorized vehicle, otherwise you won't make it!

Golf spelled backwards is flog. Kinda makes sense. I'm sick and tired of people who golf telling me what great exercise it is, especially when they always rent a cart. down.gif I have a set of clubs out in the garage somewhere, a reminder of how I wasted good money when I should've bought another pack or something.

i must say some golfers can get a lil to angry, and i dont know what causes this?..... and NO golf is not a form of exercise..... i play golf and i ALWAYS get a car just cuz im lazy and id rather drive the lil thing around then walk my ass off in an open field under the sun carrying a big bag of metal clubs around... only time i like to carry a heavy bag on my back is on a hike

Golf sure as hell ain't a form of excersize, and I doubt it really qualifies as a "sport" either. I like to go out on the course, and play Happy Gilmore style, swinging the clubs like a baseball bat, swearing at the ball, etc. The looks I get from some of the old geezers on the course at the same time are truely priceless. Anyone seen the bit Robin Williams did on his stand-up tour last year about Golf? "We'll call it a stroke, 'cause when you miss the ball, you feel like you're gonna die!" hihi.gif

Oh yeah, golf may not be exercise in your eyes. But driving to the trailhead ain't exercise in my eyes. I always walk to the trailhead. Any other way of getting there taints the route.

Actually, playing golf IS a ton of work for me...the course may only be 5000 yds....but I at least have to TRIPLE that effort after I chase my ball down all over the county. 15000 yds is a lot of miles.....whew!

i'm NOT a golfer, but if walking is considered exercise, and it often is, then golf is exercise. ONLY if you walk your 9-18 that is! TB
