    Golf Addiction

    Well it's official I played my first 9 holes ever(got rained out) and I'm eat up with it. Went to the driving range on Sunday and did pretty good with the 7 iron (all I brought with me). Had a few bad balls but had several that felt and sounded great! I need lessons but right now it's just so much fun!!!
    Another hobby......just what I needed!

    Re: Golf Addiction

    I played golf....one time...a couple of years ago, down at Dale Hollow State Park. We were through fishing for the day and these rascal's I was with are all into golf so they had reserved a tee time, carts, etc...they told me the beer was cold and I should give it a try...so I did. That was my first time....and last time, all in the same day, lost a pair of prescription sunglasses on the course that day, maybe due to the beer but I don't know.

    Other than lush green pastures and the beautiful sound of song birds I can't see what a guy gets out of golf. It was ok teeing off, but after that (depending on which way my ball went, lol) I didn't care much for it.

    I think I know who may be replacing Tiger Woods. lol Don't play near lakes; geese like to pinch golfers in strange places and you can't outrun one of those suckers.

    I am not a golfer, I don't go in for sissy sports. I am a fly fisherman!

    Golf is for people that don't know how to fish.

    Not yet...I need to get with him so he can show me a few things. Heck we live about as close to a golf course as we do to Lake E.

    The only thing I use a 7 iron for is clubbing SOB's that pull up on my favorite spot at KY Lake. It has a sign that says RESERVED for GEO.......When you're there expect to eat an iron......Unless you're the guide, or the guides friend who showed it to me . In that case I just sit back and WATCH how the catchin is done.......

    DUDE....you've got to call a brother sometime....

    Lakeside Golf Course....18 holes, then across the street for bass in the grass. It don't get no better than that! Well, unless there was a shooting range halfway between the two....and a female-only nude beach with a weight limit....but you get my point.

    Welcome to the fold Don! And you thought fishing was addictive, just wait!

    Don't listen to all the haters, its just because they can't hit that little ball straight..haha!

    To bad...I just sold three sets of irons on Ebay that you could have bought! It is a full time job keeping up with two hobbies like golf and fishing....its tough, but someone has to do it! Bienvenidos!
