If your group is anything like ours then it is pretty respectful when playing together in an official comp. Plenty of commiserations and grim expressions when a PP has a bad bit of luck, an iffy bounce or an unfortunate rub of the green.

But when it's a roll up or a friendly bounce game then quite often the gloves are off, and all that sad tutting and "bad luck mate" melts away often to be replaced by merciless ribbing and mickey-taking.

So with that in mind let's have a round up of all our best lines. As we are from all points then we may give one another a few new ones for next weekend.

I'll lead off with one we use all the time:

"Aww, no-one likes to see that!" - Perfect for when an opponent's ball looks to be all over the pin but then comes up a foot short of the green and plunges into a cavernous bunker instead.

Probably the most heard words when we play..!
That and "Treeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssss"
 
"Bite" for a thinned shot sailing over the green
"Well out" for anything fatted from the fairway
"Nice line in" when playing from another fairway or obscure place on the course

Yes but your quote does not reflect the harmony of 3 male voices singing " Treeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssss at the same time, in unison..

can we patent or copyright that? might make a few bob :)
 
When playing our 3rd hole over a pond, if a ball skips across the water, I/we usually whistle or hum the theme from the Dambusters :rofl: even if its my ball :whistle:
 
'best join a gym lad..' to any of my mates.. who all go the gym 4 or 5 times a week, whenever anything is left short.
 
I'm trying to think of something that hasn't been used thousands of times before.............................
 
Comp or not we are pretty horrendous to each other.

2 Days before an away day we get into a bit of banter on twitter when one of the lads buys a new driving iron and bets it can go past my driver. 3rd hole I hit a nice drive nothing special when my mate gives it the big one saying here we go and pulls out his 1 iron. He then topped it 20 yards and got the biggest roasting you will ever see on a golf course.
 
As the OP we are merciless in our mickey taking

best for a while, few months ago my mate hit his par three tee shot into the trees. As he is walking down to try and find it a bloke playing another hole walked down as he had hit his ball in the same area. 'Hello stu' 'oh hello steve' went the convo, this steve then played the only ball in the area. My mate lost his

'who was that?' I said 'oh the bloke that ran off with my missus' he says

'**** me stu' says I. 'Not only did he nick ya missus, now he's nicked ya ball!'
