An 80 yr old, who was an avid golfer, moved to a new
town and joined the local Country Club. He went to the Club
for the first time to play, but he was told there wasn't anyone with
whom he could play because they were already out on the
course. He repeated several times that he really wanted to play.

Finally, the Assistant Pro said he would play with him
and asked how many strokes he wanted for a bet. The 80 year old
said, "I really don't need any strokes because I have been playing quite
well. The only real problem I have is getting out of sand traps."

And he did play well. Coming to the par four 18th they
were all even. The pro had a nice drive and was able to get on
the green and 2-putt for a par. The old man had a nice drive,
but his approach shot landed in a sand trap next to the green. Playing
from the bunker he hit a high ball which landed on the green
and rolled into the hole! Birdie, match and all the money!

The Pro walked over to the sand trap where his
opponent was still standing in the trap. He said, " Nice shot, but
I thought you said you have a problem getting out of sand traps?".

Replied the 80 yr old, "I do. Please give me a hand."
