So you've tried and suck, eh?

Hmm, I'm typically the only male in my foursome and I've invested less than $500. I'm such a rebel.

Mindless, however? Only if you're throwing clubs and tearing up the sod.

I fail to see the problem. Motorcycling is just one more mindless activity that lets men be men with lots of other men while manfully revving the motors of expensive toys.

It's all the same thing.

Since your sarcastic sense of humor is out to lunch, maybe you could go start a Bitter, Surly Woman thread that would make you happier than a light hearted golf thread.

Maybe within that thread you could outline which activities you find suitable for manly men that don't rub you the wrong way.

Golf is a 'civilized' sport.

And there are tons of women that play.

The #1 was a joke. She's really bombing this year.

Paula Creamer will destroy her any day:

My sister volunteered at Interlachen last year and said Paula is actually more attractive up close. She's also a great deal more friendly and approachable. My sis was stationed at the locker room door so she met the entire field.

She can crush a golf ball.

On a good day I can crush a beer can.

Where is everyone's favorite course? To bo honest I haven't played all that many. The Air Force Course in Phoenix and a bunch in MN and WI for me. We're going to play in HI when we go for our 10th Anniversary. So far my favorite course is Superior National. We played it on our 7th anniversary. Stunning views of Kitchi-gummi.

I played it 5 years ago after the Western Open. Most money I'd ever spent on a round, but worth it. Impossible course. Impossible! (When you suck). I shot a 94, and loved every shitty minute of it.

Golf. When I was a kid, 10-12 maybe a friend of mine and I took his Dad's driver and a few balls down to the park, I hit one ball and absolutley CRUSHED the fucking thing. Really, the ball went dead straight and literally disapeared over the horizon.
Never hit a ball again, until my brother's wedding. We had a "Round" I think it was called, teams of four, each take a shot, use the best one for the following shot. Scramble? Anyway, I seem to just have a natural good swing, tend to hook rather than slice, don't know anything about the short game, but I do love to go to the driving range now and then.
I'd go golfing with you guys, Kilts, shotguns, firehoses, explosives, whatever it takes.

I'd truly prefer some UTMC-branded golf gear. Ahem, Ahem...

Shit, man, thanks! I'm getting all gooey inside (even though that score was a long time ago in my distant golfing days). And then you wrote this:

Priest wrote:if you're usng blades, you're possibly a madman

Well, maybe. All my golf has been played with my dad's old set of Keith Knox blade irons, and teeing off with a forgotten, unmatched 2 iron because my drivers are that shite. The Big Bertha iron is a new purchase and all I'm doing at the moment is swinging at grass. Planning to take it to a driving range in the next couple of weeks to see how it (and the shoulder) go. Wish it was a 7 iron...

Thanks for getting me all giddy and excited about golf again.

Just messing with ya. I actualy played a little golf when I was 18 or 19 and have hit the driving range a few times over the years.

My idea of golf was drinking a 12 pack on the back 9. I dont really play anymore since I rarely drink and I hate sweating it out under the summer sun.

Man, I wanna go whack a few balls now.

Golf, for me, is about spending the least amount of money possible, havin' a beer or three and hangin out with my bros.

I refuse to spend more than $50 on a set of clubs and no more than $20 for a round.
