Only A True Golfer Will Understand These



While it's not necessarily related to PTR Labels, I had a friend share these with me recently.

1. Don't buy a putter until you've had a chance to throw it.
2. Never try to keep more than 300 separate thoughts in your mind during your swing.
3. When your shot has to carry over a water hazard, you can either hit one more club or two more balls
4. If you're afraid a full shot might reach the green while the foursome ahead of you is still putting out, you have two options: you can immediately shank a lay-up - OR - you can wait until the green is clear and top a ball halfway there..
5. The less skilled the player, the more likely he is to share his ideas about the golf swing.
6. No matter how bad you are playing, it is always possible to play worse.
7. The inevitable result of any golf lesson is the instant elimination of the one critical unconscious motion that allowed you to compensate for all of your many other errors.
8. A golf match is a test of your skill against your opponents' luck.
9. Counting on your opponent to inform you when he breaks a rule is like expecting him to make fun of his own haircut.
10. You can hit a two acre fairway 10% of the time and a two inch branch 90% of the time.
11. Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually the beginning of the next group of three.
12. When you look up, causing an awful shot, you will always look down again at exactly the moment when you ought to start watching the ball if you ever want to see it again.
13. A good drive on the 18th hole has stopped many a golfer from giving up the game.
14. It's amazing how a golfer who never helps out around the house will replace his divots, repair his ball marks, and rake his sand traps.

I think it's a pretty interesting, humorous and depressing way to sum up golf  :)
