Golf...does it NOT rule?

Post by Neil »

I heard that the weather here is supposed to be the 50's all week, great way to bring in the spring. I'm so freakin STOKED about being able to golf again.
Anybody here into golfing?? Known and slandered here as "geeeeolfin".

I can't freakin wait.....grab some beer, have a sober cart driver, sweet times on the course. I'm not very good, but I have an awesome time.

I'm not very good at all.....seriously, 18 holes, par 72.......I shoot around 110 haha. Its sad....I've made one birdie and I thought I was the shit for like an hour.

But with Mini golf it's ok if you suck because it's about having fun, not winning. :nod: It's actually more fun when everyone sucks.

you'll do it....eventually, it didn't take me long to drive it that way. Of course, it takes me about ten tries before I can do it just once, but its possible.
