Looking for an oasis with a water hole…..

Just Cosmo’s luck, he will hit the water on the golf course, but not by playing golf in the desert. He will get lots of sand bunker shots instead.

One usually has to get out of the woods to find water.

Someone forgot to download the color again.

In a previous strip of Born Loser, Brutus was saying that everywhere he went, it rained. We the commentors thought that made him a rain maker, his next lucrative profession. Now we find Cosmo pursuing another career goal as a water witch, only using golf, not a willow twig.

At least he wasn’t with a ‘Horse with No name’…

If that don’t work, go to the 19th hole, or go there even if you do find the lake.

That’s actually a good one!

With your luck… you’re likely to get into a sand trap.

Didn’t quite think this out—there are a lot traps to hit into….

Found a sand trap instead!

i was at both many a time!

That wasn’t a desert, lad. You just couldn’t get out of the bunker.

My late wife and our dear friend took part of a charity golf tournament in the Phoenix, AZ area. My late wife found two things during the event. Water and trees. No matter how skinny the tree was, she would hit it with her golf ball. She also found every water hazard the course had to offer.
