Didn't have my lucky drawers on. I took shower and got dressed, made sure I had my lucky drawers on. I ate some breakfast and then grabbed my bag. I feel a strange rumbling in my intestinal area. I thought it was just a fart, but it was stuck. So I gave a little push and heard that distinctive gurgling, wet duck sound. Sure enough, the warm liquid came next, I had sharted in my lucky drawers. I knew 4 burritos was at least one too many last night.

Ez, that is wrong on so many levels... And if it hadn't happened to me once before, I would think you were lying!

#16 - My wife wouldn't let me buy a driver, and the one I borrowed was the wrong flex, so everything leaked right...

#15 - New putter, have to hit a lot harder with that polymer insert vs. hardened steel

#14 Changed my swing to fit the new driver and royally screwed up my irons.

That's not even the worst part... I shot a 41 on the front with a triple, pretty darn good for me. Then I shot a 52 on the back. I had to sit on the bench to wait to tee off on #10. It was then that I noticed it, on the left inseam on the back of my shorts, dried Shart!!

But Cholly you really were smacking that driver well

That's always amazed me. How can I hit a sky-high pull 150yds. into the edge of the woods with a driver, punch it out and hit a 5iron 205 with 3 yds. of draw using the same swing??

#13 I rolled the golf cart on hole #17 and was forced to finish the TOURNEY driving on the passenger side without a windshield.

Yeah, Chuck, what Doug said. One you get a little more time with that driver, it's gonna be down the middle every time. Prepare for a little ribbing about the flex, though.

Anyone found a course for us to play with no trees? I'm really tired of hearing THONK!

No woods, no sand, and no marshy areas

Was a good time anyway, even if none of burned up the course.

That's okay. With a 6 inch backswing, I'll take all the help I can get. If my grandson's junior clubs were a little longer, I'd try those!

Reason 13: "I'm not a mountain golfer"

[Adam Pettman]

Reason 12: The greens were in perfect condition and I didnt want to damage them by hitting them with anything more than 5 yard chip.

#11
The head flew off my gap wedge on #10. It's my go to club within 75 yards & couldn't get within seeing distance to the pin the entire back nine.

[ualtim]

Into the top 10:

Reason #10: 2nd hole. Pefect drive down the center, 140 yards out into the wind left for the second shot. 8 iron off the left edge in the rough. 8 iron chip and run than ran 20 ft past the hole into the fringe on the other side of the green. Gap wedge chip that ran 30 ft past the hole again leaving a monster putt. 3 putt for a nice triple bogey.

Reason #9: I was on the ninth hole before I got my putting speed adjusted to the shaggy, unmowed greens.

Reason #8: The back nine had just been freshly mowed.
