Ok... I played golf yesterday afternoon... it's been ages, but I did ok
against three guys who play a lot. I scored 64 on the 9 holes and came in
third by 1 hit (he lost 3 balls in a small lake on one hole). My best
first
shot was about 170 yards dead straight (with cheering from the guys) using
a
#1, and I got 1 par on a par 3. Oh, and the clubs were borrowed.

Some kids had a toy sailboat on the pond, so this post is on-topic.

Golf is great if you throw away the score card, only remember your
good shots and enjoy the day out in a nice park that lets you drive a
cart and hit balls with a stick.
Take plenty of ammo and don't waste a lot of time chasing balls that
went into the woods. (think dollar store, $10 for 2 dozen)
Another tip. Tee up every shot. It makes you look like a pro when you
pop that ball up out of the sand with your driver and go 200 yards
from a fairway trap. Tiger can't do that. ;-)

If anyone complains just tell them to assess the proper number of
penalty strokes *... oops you don't have a score card.

Gotta keep score... that's what we do! (lawyers)

FYI, I didn't lose a single ball.

That's why Sharks don't bite Lawyers..." Professional Courtesy"...lol.
