The blonde Golf thread

[RED-DOG]

Complete bollocks as usual.

Last year said bloke, who has never met me before asked, "what do you do? how much do you earn? how much do you pay to play here? etc. Obviously I maintained my usual decorum and displayed an affable persona but inside I was a bit nonplussed.

Fast forward to yesterday. We had already decided to let the following two ball through and were waiting patiently on the tee.

As they approached HE shouted from 50 yards away "YOU ARE LETTING US THROUGH GUYS.

When they got closer he said, and I swear this is true, "Of course,  you are not members here." At which point he recognised Tony and said, "Oh it's you, are you married yet?"

Now I don't care if he's Indian, Azerbaijani, or Martian, he's still a *****.


PS- To his eternal credit, Tony did say to him, "I enjoy playing with your wife."

No one will ever convince me the double meaning was accidental.

For the sake of any strangers perusing this fascinating convo, there's a degree of embellishment by both parties here, in roughly equal measure. (Call it 80% by Tom, 20% by me).

Those are truth percentages BTW.

Behave now, Tightend is on the forum.

Mind you, we're probably safe on this niche thread.

[I KNOW IT]

you tube golf vids.

Anyone got favs? There are so many and unfortunately a lot of them have either very little content or don't actually cover the topic billed. One I watched the other day claimed to show the difference between good putters and bad putters and then prattled on about the most common error of good putters until I gave up with it.

This is an ok one for content and somewhat on topic with thread readers.

Some good you tube videos out there are :
Danny Maude   (General )
Porzak Golf.   ( General ). Very good
Dan Grieves ( Short game )
Phil Kenyon  (Putting )
Sorry I am not sure how to post links

What a great new thread.   I’ve been playing golf regular again for the last 10 years or so , running a monthly golf society when I lived in China . Since I moved to Thailand I try to play once a week.  We are really spoiled playing golf in Asia

Working on it Trev. 20 years since I played regularly although I still played 6-8 times a year. Been playing every week (sometimes twice) for about 4 months. Handicap of 28 coming down nicely. Putting cards on this week expecting to be around 22. Still a work in progress but loving the game again.

Playing here with my son and his friend week on Friday. That's us 3 in the photo.
