Any golf experts?

Also remember

1. Don't drive your golf cart across the green or even too close to the green.

2. Don't put your golfbag down on the green.

3. If you land on the green, and leave an indentation, fix it, or ask someone and they will help you fix it.

4. Replace chunks of grass a.k.a. divots on the fairway.

5. Don't take your shirt off.

6. Be sure to set the break on your golfcart whenever you stop.

BTW: I have two friends who were banned for life from Andersen and Lindsey Golf Courses on Fort Knox for violating...simultaneously many of the rules above...including the rules below.

7. Don't lose control of your golfcart, so that it ends up on the other side of...Radcliffe Blvd (iirc).

8. Don't ram another golfcart with your golfcart.

9. Don't execute tank platoon manuevers on the golfcourse.

10. Don't try to climb over the fence to Gold Depository to retrieve ball.

11. And above all, don't get falling down drunk.

Recently went also for first time in ages...I used an Iron off the tee and did fine ...putting take time...chipping was very hard...if the iron keeps you on fairway then you will do good.

I hit farther with the irons than a driver cause of my lack of experience with the driver.

Don't take the advice of anyone that you are playing with unless they are a Pro.

Leave the driver in the bag unless you know how to use it.

Basically the lower club number the more skill you need. A 3 iron off the fairway may be difficult while a 5,6,7 iron is far easier.

Lastly, don't take it seriously. Just try and enjoy yourself. Good luck Xabb.

Cheers guys.

I am sure to be of entertainment value.

One thing though is assured. I will get a prize.

My uncle once put a firecracker in a toilet at a country club (golf club). And it blew the cermamic toilet up. or so he said. so that can be rule 10

Actually I play about 4-6 times a summer with a group of lads, it is basically anything goes golf. Heckling is allowed, actually encouraged

Of course we respect other golfers, the course, but are hell toward each other.

I don't play this way all the time of, but when I do, it is alot of fun

I whacked a ball at a driving range once, it ricocheted off the side walls a few times and hit me in the face. Never again...

Yes, and would you believe my girlfriend's dad just invited me on a golf trip with him? How am I going to get out of this one?

That reminds me of the time I helped my father try to cut a golfball in half in the garage with a compound miter saw using a ripping blade....

Never hit your ball when someone is in front of you, even at an angle they gravitate towards people.

Don't beat your boss. (That also includes hitting him with a 7 iron after you went from one bunker to another on the other side of the green and he made a smart alec comment.)

Bring water, golf can take awhile and you're walking the whole time.
