    I dunno...I highly doubt most people are that incompetent with anything short of those odd puzzles you had to stare at until you saw some hidden image or got a headache, whichever came first.

      I've decided to buy a new set if we do start playing properly.

      I currently have a set of Sam Snead signature clubs which I think I bought for about $200 in the early 80s.

      The man was born in 1912...

        It's a bit more complicated than that.

        It would be things you have spent quite a lot of time trying but remain surprisingly useless at.

          I always say thread ideas in hopes someone else will start it.....you know, the type of threads you would enjoy posting in & reading everyone elses comments...but also a thread that is so lame you don't wanna take the heat for actually starting it yourself.

            Now that I have hit 44 years of age..I love golf..greatest game in the world.I got my first set of clubs in 86 but rarely played.I play every weekend now..weather permitting.I shoot anywhere from 90 - 115.
            Inconsistent as hell..We have 5-6 decent local courses and 2 public courses at Smith Mtn. Lake..
            Lots of elevation changes, which kicks ass, and plenty of trees to roam in..My best rd ever was 90..literally 3 ft from 89.
            Taylor Made clubs now..older models..R7 irons, 09 Burner driver and "Rescue" hybrid, Odyssey white hot XG flat blade putter. I dunno, just something special about the feel of a well hit golf ball.

                I'm going to have to haul myself down your way this spring to play some golf with you. I am no Arnold Palmer, but I can hold my own on a course. Loads of fun to shoot a round then go catch a few largemouth bass.

                  Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

                      Has been paid for hard labor on more than one occasion with a set of used golf clubs. (in some circles used is like daddy trades his vett in every year, cause it need s a waxing)



                      But, being worn out so that wich brung us together, I could never find the use for exersize on the links.

                      So.... as for however'more, much the game looks like fun for a simple'ton.

                      I will meet you all on the 9th hole halfwayhouse bar with a pitcher of whattever you fancy.

                            Very nice. I play this course at least once a week in the summer.

                              More than one hole on the green. That's confusing.
