>>Thanks for the invite, but I really don't get golf. <<
William that's what I thought. You've always struck me as the kinda guy that hates to go out of the house, and would prefer staying home, buying commodities from Jeff Bezos.
Oh! I know you like to go to las Vegas. I can tell by your stock picks that your one hell of a gambler.
I'm going to order the Kenny Rodgers song "The gambler" from amzn, for you for Xmas.
William do you remember the lyrics to that song??
"Now every gambler knows that the secret to survival, is knowing when to walk away, and knowing when to run".
I hope your as fast as Mark.

The goal is questionable, it's a very inefficient use of energy, and the tools aren't very productive!

Evidently, you have not even attempted to play the game....

As a hint, I will say that physical skill is only about 30 % of the game... The rest has to do with mental control and concentration.... lots of it.

Besides, sometimes you get opportunities like this:

Three men were on the practice putting green waiting for their tee off time when the starter came over and said that he has a 4th player to join them them.

Much to the delight of the three men the 4th was a woman, not just any woman but an absolute fox. Once they put their tongues back in their mouths they teed off.

Well after 17 holes this vision of a woman was shooting the lights out on this course. when they walked up on the green this vixen said out loud that she has never broken 80 in all her life. Now if she makes this 30 foot putt that would give her a 79. Scratching her head looking at the putt she muttered that if any of these guys could help her to make this putt she would take him home and make love to them all night long.

Well James jumped over to her position and immediately looked over the putt and said if you strike it the ball very lightly and aim it 3 inches left of the hole, the slope of the green should guide the ball right in.

William ran behind her and stared at the break and said that what James said was correct but the break was more like 5 inches.

Finally, Gastón looked over the ball down the green towards the hole than he got up strolled around to the other side of the ball looked up at the woman with a wry smile and said:

"its a gimmee"

Finally, there is: Bedroom Golf.

But I will refrain from posting such, as there may be some that would object to that.... PM me if you want the rules... <g>

William! I can't agree more and you just described my marriage to a tee!

Thanks, Mike
