really I hope you are all joking. But I guess some mean it. You play golf for fun it's not your living. So lighten up enjoy, or take up tennis.
 
You need a sense of humour when playing our 3rd hole, which has a 220 yrd carry over water from the back tee. We normally whistle the Dam Busters theme when some poor sole fails to clear, then mention Barnes Wallace's.:rofl:
 
mentions this............
Just waiting for the first time I hear one of a foursomes pair mess up and declare 'my bad'. I will surprised if it will be any of my regular foursomes partners - I am highly selective over who I play foursomes with (my partners are less so).

The expression 'my bad' is a truly awful corruption of our language that should be eradicated by a thorough stamping upon whenever heard uttered.

then says this..............
I'm actually pretty laid back :)

:rofl::rofl::thup:

Doesn't bother me what things are said, unless its very negative.
 
I think the sayings are funny

During the last Meet at Blackmoor - TXL was rolling them out all day - it was great banter ( especially on the last when revenge was sweet )
 
Good shot gets on my nerves. Only say it if it was a good shot you idiot! I've often wanted to respond with '**** off' when in a bad mood but always thought better of it, fortunately!
agreed, that and my coach, you mean the guy you and a thousand other hackers pay for a lesson:rofl:

I think this comes down to ease of phrase. What's easier to say, 'my pro'/'my coach' or 'the guy I pay for lessons on x basis'? There's nothing wrong with it, technically. That said if someone does use it in a delusional sense thinking they're some kind of wiz while boasting their non-existent ability generally, I could see how that might be annoying...

100% agree, it is an awful phrase :mad:
