Oh God! Another Golf story...

Arvon · 10-26-2001, 06:00 PM

A young man who was also an avid golfer found himself with a few hours to
spare one afternoon. He figured if he hurried and played very fast, he
could get in 9 holes before he had to head home. Just as he was about to
tee off an old gentleman shuffled onto the tee and asked if he could
accompany the young man as he was golfing alone. Not being able to say no,
he allowed the old gent to join him.

To his surprise the old man played fairly quickly. He didn't hit the ball
far, but plodded along consistently and didn't waste much time. Finally,
they reached the 9th fairway and the young man found himself with a tough
shot. There was a large pine tree right in front of his ball and it was
directly between his ball and the green. After several minutes of debating
how to hit the shot the old man finally said, "You know, when I was your
age I'd hit the ball right over that tree."

With that challenge placed before him, the youngster swung hard, hit the
ball up, right smack into the top of the tree trunk and it thudded back on
the ground not a foot from where it had originally lay. The old man
offered one more comment, "Of course, when I was your age that pine tree
was only 3 feet tall."

Arvon, did you consider joining the Laughing Hyena's?

The Laughing Hyena's are a 'clan' at the IW dedicated to bringing laughter to this forum (and the rest of the world). You've posted a good number of jokes already, so you should fit right in

Ask the members for details (watch the sigs or post a topic)

EDIT: Cloudy's a LH for one...
