So which popular golf sayings you here from people make you cringe

Ill start with

38 points with x blobs

Purest form of golf
 
Other than MASHED POTATO - Mark Crossfield when he asks himself 'would I GAME this club' - never heard that expression until I started watching his vids. Makes me shudder every time.
 
It drives me mad when I play with my boss (off 13).
If I hit a shot and know it's a poor one, and react accordingly (perhaps saying "caught it fat" or "no, it's out of the toe") and he says good shot as it comes up short of the green.
He then goes onto tell me "well I'd have been happy with it"!
That makes me cringe!
 
sorry we cant let you through were playing a match/comp

(i dont care what youre playing if youve lost holes on the group in front and are holding everyone else up)
 
Boooo Another post for people to moan about others in......

Not really the OPs fault that people get personal.

I don't particular dislike a particular phrase but anyone who just talks in them for an entire round is not helpful and probably breaking rules if in a comp. I'm daily tolerant so just get on with enjoying golf itself.
 
Any 'Americanism'

Front side, back side, gaming, top of the bag, trap, double eagle etc etc

We have a perfectly good language and a game with hundreds of years of tradition, why do we have to change it because of a few American commentators?
 
when playing with my missus I get this quite often and does my head in :


"Think that's me 1,2 or 3 up"

" Sorry Matt you lost and buying the lunch..again"
