Re: Why do I play golf?

Because my Father in Law got me hooked.. While on vacation with him we golfed some great courses out of the country.. Now I just love to play every second I can because this is the only sport that I know I will never master.

Re: Why do I play golf?

So my father in Law bought me a clickgear golf cart for a early birthday gift and I loved it.. We went out the other day shot 18 at the oaks.. I shot a 84 that day. This is crazzzyyy.. Can't believe how well we both shot together.. Between the new Ping G5 driver and the pull cart I am very grateful to have a in law as good as he is. Cheers Zaphod. Oh did I mention I beat him on the back nine he he!!

Re: Why do I play golf?

Nice going Chad & congrats on the Clicgear, John had said he wanted to get you one a few weeks ago at Waushara.

And what's with The Oaks anyways? Doesn't look like many trees at all there, more of a links style course from what I can see.

Re: Why do I play golf?

to tell the truth i dont know why..but im addicted to this game and have been since i was 4 so i have no true clue why i play..i guess because its the only sport that even the average guy has a shot at playing against pros..at opens and stuff if your good you get your shot

Re: Why do I play golf?

My father and little brother got me into it 5 years ago and I have been hooked ever since.

That feeling of euphoria striking the ball out of the centre of a club. hitting greens in regulation, 1 putting, hitting a shot that you can just tell all the way that it will end up near the flag, finishing a round with that satisfied feeling that lasts the rest of the day when I break my handicap.

All these reasons are what keep me coming back for more even when I've just had a stinker.

Re: Why do I play golf?

I get so little outside with my busy schedule, so golf is a great "excuse"

Also, I enjoy trying to take my playing to the next level! (hopefully will beat 80 soon!)

Re: Why do I play golf?

I play because of days like today. You see, I'm generally pretty much a hacker in that I'm not too upset as long as my scores remain in the two digit range. Today was an exception though. I went to a course that normally slaps me around like a red headed stepchild and wound up having one of those rare really good days. I managed an honest 77 which I'm pretty sure is the best score I ever pulled off....ever...anywhere...

I realize that next time I play this course I will probably come home with my tail tucked firmly between my legs but, for today anyway, I kicked it's butt and, although none of you know me from Adam, I'm cashing in my bragging rights.

*Does the happy dance*
