Don’t be a sap! Stop tapping those trees!
If you are a duffer/hacker like me, balata balls cut too easily. I haven’t used any since the 70’s. That’s probably when they were discontinued.

Word of the day along with quotes is one of my favorite funnies – thanks, Mike!
Golf is pasture pool.
Everyone I know, who plays golf is obsessed! @#$%£€
Chasing a little ball all over the greens is so silly ….☺️☺️☺️
Baaaaaa baaaaaa. We’ve all HERD it all before!
The thing about golf is the better at it you are the less you hit the ball.
So why do it at all?
