Golf Joke

January 5th, 2008 at 12:01am Under Golf Jokes

I just heard this golf joke from one of my close friends, and I just had to share it with everyone. Here it is:

Joe goes up to his friend, Bobby and says “I just got some golf clubs for my wife”

Then the Bobby says “What kind of golf clubs?”

Then Joe says, “Well, really junky, used clubs. It was the best I could get out of the trade…”

This joke just made me crack up. I hope everyone liked it. :)

What’s a Caddy

January 3rd, 2008 at 12:12am Under Definitions

In golf, you will sometimes ask or be assigned to a caddy. A caddy is basically an assistant to you. When you arrive at a tee to a new hole, they will tell you the yardage and where to aim. They will also do this on every other shot and putt of yours. And like lets say your about 170 yards from the pin. Your caddy will advise you on what club they think you should hit. Also, when you hit a shot and make a divot, they will replace the divot for you which is a nice little luxury. And when your ball is dirty, they will mark it, clean it, and then put it back down so you can keep your golf balls clean. I lose quite a few golf balls when I am out on the course. But with a caddy, they have very good eyes and can sometimes find your golf ball that you wouldn’t of been able to find on your own. So you won’t lose many golf balls with a caddy. But overall, caddies are basically your personal golf assistant. They are not necessary but quite the luxury.

Chipping: Learn to Rotate

January 1st, 2008 at 06:56pm Under History+ Short Game

One of the major mistakes people make when they are chipping is they are forgetting to rotate and are using all arms in the shot. So I was taught a very helpful drill called the towel drill. In this drill you should put some towels underneath both of your armpits. Then, while holding the towels under your armpits, chip a golf ball about 25 feet. You will find that in order to do this, you must rotate your body and stop using only your arms because your arms are basically paralyzed in this situation. This drill will help you so much. Good luck!
