Golf...

Post by Rots »

Today I'll play my first real golf game for an insurance event. Move over Tiger Woods, here comes Rots!!

Seriously though, my aim today is to at least hit the ball with the club and not kick it down the green. :D

Got any tips? Drink lots?

Wear sturdy shoes. Me and the old man used to play "AH FUCK!" a fair bit. We were both shit and that's what made it heaps of fun. Take your time, have a chat with mates and sink a few too many, then when you hit a decent shot, pull your shirt over your head and run around like an airplane.

don't try and clobber the shit out of your shots, get the timing right and the club will do the work for you.

the best tips are the common ones.. watch the back of the ball like a hawk, keep your head stil! dont lift your head to see where its gone... (usually makes you top the ball).. keep your right elbow close to your body when you swing.

Prob already too much to think about... sometimes its better to forget everything and just.. hit the fucking ball :D It can be a frustrating game for sure... when me and my ex broke up... id go to the driving range about 2-3 times a week... was good for taking out my agression etc :D (in b4 fleshlite comment).

Nigel's rules of golf.

1/ Only your hatred will make you powerful.
2/ Only play one hole. That's all that's ever needed.
3/ Don't bother, it will only annoy you for the rest of the day.

I had a fun time. Fired off one cracker of a drive, but it hooked the wrong way and landed on the practice driving range and not the fairway. My putting improved a hell of a lot throughout the day. I was able to get really close to the hole from long putt.

My feet hurt last night, so much bloody walking!

i was trying to find Billy Connerly talking about golf, specifically when the dude who invented it was explaining it to someone and how ridiculous the concept sounds... but couldnt find it.. so here watch this instead. I love the bit on christian rock.
