I guess here then a "hole-in-one" would be a bad thing?

i need to make sure that xshub's next meeting is not at this place....

Puts a whole meaning on the question "mind if I play through?"

[socal_parrot]

Sorry, I searched golf and swing. I guess I should have tried hooker.

[xsmommy]

he was at that function in Palm Springs a week or so ago where they had a girlie dressed skimpily at each hole. Where is this place again....??

[xsmommy]

i thought HOOKING was a bad thing to do in golf?

[RikaStrom]

What about the ones who were playing in the rough?

[xsmommy]

ummmm... the S&M ones?

[VRWCmember]

Hey, when I'm hooking on the golf course it's not illegal.

[VRWCmember]

They had a celebrity golf tournament at this course and the worst team consisted of Ted Kennedy, Heidi Fleiss, OJ Simpson, and Barney Frank.
Kennedy couldn't drive over any water hazards;
Fleiss was hooking all day;
Simpson was slicing everywhere;
and B. Frank kept playing the wrong holes.

[Tony in Hawaii]

I saw the headline, and I swear I thought this would be a story about restrictive neighborhood rules about putting up kid's swing sets.

[socal_parrot]

It isn't?

[xsmommy]

but it is bad for one's golf score, right? i have no idea what it is, except that you should not do it!

Clubhouse first: golfers OVERstating the number of strokes.

[VRWCmember]

A hook is a shot that curves to the left (for a right-handed golfer) rather than going straight. The hook results in not only an off-target shot, but also a significantly shorter shot. (insert clinton 'bent-one' joke here as desired).

I almost never hook, as I tend to slice my shots off to the right. (In fact, my golf game is usually further right than my politics.) But on those rare occasions that I hook the ball, it's a DOOZY!

The morning jocks on KROQ were having fun with this story this morning.

And I thought my idea of bringing an 18-pack of beer to the course (one for every hole) was a bad idea.

That's what I call golfing!
