Random thoughts on golf?

Golf can best be defined as an endless series of tragedies obscured by the occasional miracle, followed by a good bottle of beer.�

Golfers who try to make everything perfect before�

taking the shot rarely make a perfect shot.�

The term 'mulligan' is really a contraction of the�

phrase 'maul it again.'�

A 'gimme' can best be defined as an agreement�

between two golfers ..neither of whom can putt very well.�

An interesting thing about golf is that no matter how�

badly you play; it is always possible to get worse.�

Golf's a hard game to figure. One day you'll go out�

and slice it and shank it, hit into all the traps and miss�

every green. The next day you go out and for no�

reason at all you really stink.�

If your best shots are the practice swing and the�

'gimme putt', you might wish to reconsider this game.�

Golf is the only sport where the most feared opponent is you.�

Golf is like marriage: If you take yourself too�seriously

it won't work, and both are expensive.�

Update:

These were sent to me in an email. I just found them interesting and thought I would share. I can relate to some of them, perhaps some of you can as well.
