Golf. Do you play it?

Postby wataru » Sat Oct 02, 2010 8:50 am

Im going to talk up golf as a hobby.

Human's are the only beings to assault our senses with our hobbies...

Loud music - hearing
Smoking - taste, smell
Climate Control - sense of touch
TV and computers - sight

Golf really doesnt hurt these. And I need a snooty hobby for my posh lifestyle of bitches and fast cars.

i love to golf.

The wrist thing shouldn't be aproblem... you're not supposed to really use your wrists for anything.

It's all in the rest of your body. :D

I play like two dozens times a year. Already have played 54 holes this year and it is only April 2nd. Shot around 90 each round of 18.

Got a Ping G5 driver and a two or three year old set of Wilson Staff irons. Not the best irons, but I love them (especially the pitching wedge). Also got an Odyssey white steel putter. That one is a two or three old club my friend gave to me in an exchange a few weeks ago for an R5 driver that was just chilling in my garage.

Oddly enough, my Mustang looks ALOT like that one.

Sadly Ive not played a lick :/ Dont have time during the week and my golf buddy turned into an ass-hat sooooo...and my girl has no interest in it, even though I offered to buy her clubs.

It's still on my to-do list.

I figured since you have a fourth-gen red Mustang IIRC. :)

Either way you'll get into it soon enough I'm sure. It is pretty relaxing.

I play mini golf when I'm in Ocean City for the past 13 years. It's always fun to play at the Dinosaur Golf Course, but I never care for normal Golf since it's so boring to watch. I don't like Golf video games unless it's Mario Golf on the N64 because that game was awesome :D !

Really surprised to see you post here again.

For putting and chipping yes, for shots with an iron and driver, no. The wrists are actually what deliver a lot of the force behind the club head. The longer you can delay snapping your wrists back around, the farther the ball will go.
