  • Golf balls are like eggs . they're white. They're sold by the dozen ...

  • A pro-shop gets its name from the fact that you have to have the income
    of a professional golfer to buy anything in there.

    his divots, repair his ball marks, and rake his sand traps.

  • Golf is by far the ultimate love / hate relationship. Sometimes it seems
    as though your cup runneth and moveth over.

    fart while performing brain surgery.

  • Golf is the perfect thing to do on Sunday because you always end up
    praying a lot.
  • A good golf partner is one who's always slightly worse than you.
  • That rake by the sand trap is there for golfers who feel guilty about skipping out on lawn work.
  • If there's a storm rolling in, you'll be having the game of your life.
  • If your opponent has trouble remembering whether he shot a six or a seven,
    he probably shot an eight.
  • You probably wouldn't look good in a Green Jacket anyway!
    A sweatshirt will do just fine!
