This game of golf I love so much

So here is the deal....

I am not the best golfer. I have my moments.. A few holes here and there where it makes you go back for more. Last year I worked hard on my driving. I am consistently hitting the golf ball for really good distance and hitting the fairways with a high percentage. I thank The Chad for the distance with the workouts I have been doing for a year now. Now the problem lies with my Par 5 fairway woods and anything from 100 yards out. I will be working hard on that this year.

But here is some advice and stories over the last couple of years that may help you...

My problem is, with all the hits I collected over the years in baseball, I can get in one round of golf. Stupid game! A couple of years ago, I was playing at gorgeous Valley View golf course. A deer was standing right in the middle of the fairway. I was trying to scare it and get it to move. So I thought... Well its her fault and I swung away. It was a high towering shot! To the right. Wayyyy right. So I guess the deer knew the best place to stand after all. I hope God knows to just wipe out all the times I used his name in vain since the course is where I happen to use it the most.

The hardest part about golf is the mother effing cost! And its not the cost of playing. Its the clubs I keep losing. Someone asked me once "Why did you get a new putter?" to which I replied "Since I learned that the old one didn't float to well." Here is a rule for you all. If you are going to throw your clubs, make sure its down the fairway or to the next tee box. Saves you a lot of time and money.

I also suggest that you always go golfing with someone else. So when you hit the ball. The other person can also say.. "I have no idea where that went??" Then you can look together. Its like a mini adventure.

Then there is always the free show you might come across of a couple using the golf cart like its prom night in a limo. I mean full on.... like...GET ME SOME POPCORN!!

But most importantly...The laughter. It is hard to beat a day on the course with some good friends and most importantly. My father and brother. We will do anything for a laugh and we will always...always drive by someone ready swing and run over their golf ball. Its a tradition.

And finally for all you married folks out there who will be to worried about not going out to get a round in because of the Mrs. Just put it this way to her: "Honey... I go golfing, or we get it on?" She will throw the keys at you is my guess.

I hope this helps and I will see you out on the course. Come on spring and summer. Lets get sexual.
