Golf - The unwritten rules....

[williamalex1]

Might have been said before, but it always makes me laugh...

"regardless of where the ball finishes, if a senior successfully managed to exit his ball from a bunker, all other players must in unison, say "well out""

Not in my case , usually it's " just lift it ffs"

 

[richart]

Someone in our group will always say 'you don't like to see that' when a ball trickles in a bunker, flicks a tree and drops down behind it, lips out etc. Come to think about it, it is usually me.

You lose Pro V1s but only ever find Top Flites.

 

[Smiffy]

The amount of backspin you can generate is in direct proportion to how many inches you cleared the pond by.

 

[Smiffy]

The iron that you have mislaid somewhere will be the first one you need when you next play.

 

[virtuocity]

Hangover announcements must be declared on meeting your PPs.

 

[BrizoH71]

You must shout 'DOWN!' followed by 'BITE!' whenever you thin an approach through the green..

 

[patricks148]

You look at the weather forecast see its going to be bad and decide not to play and make other arrangements, only for it to be completely different, like today for instance. Not a cloud in the sky and none of the torrential rain forecast an hour ago

 

[Crawfy]

When exiting a bunker, one must tap the soles of their shoes with their wedge.

A lengthy holed putt on the last must be followed up with a casual glance at the clubhouse window.

 

[Piece]

Probably already said...using a new ball on the tee will greatly enhance the chances of that said ball being slapped OoB or dumped in the splosh.

 

[Backache]

Whenever you top a ball you are in luck as one of your playing partners will explain to you exactly why you topped it.

Their considered and highly useful explanation will always be 'You lifted your head'.

 

[Capella]

The pp who offers the most advice is always the one who plays the most crap himself. (I would have said "him- or herself", but I'm afraid there is a gender specific bias here)

My grandad, 21 Hcap is the prime example of this. If he never played with anyone else or didnt have an active hcap people would think he was scratch. Infuriating when he caddied for me in one of our club majors :sbox:

Yep. Any time you top it, always the fault of "head up"
