Golfing OCD's

[Iaing]

Don't tee of in a competition with a number 3 ball. And according to our pro I'm not alone. He says quite a lot of people buying a sleeve of balls will request any number but 3.

Non golfing, I do tend to check the car's locked a couple of times when walking away from it. Drives the wife nuts.

I wouldn't call them OCD's, but I have routines etc. 4 long tees, 4 short tees in from right pocket. Ball marker, pitch repairer and club cleaner in back right pocket. Glove will go in back right pocket when putting. Obviously all clubs have their specific gaps to go in in the bag. I suppose it is just something I have got myself in to, and never got out of it!!

i have been known to set off to work get round the block and come back to check the door and guess what its be locked everytime

I have done the same, often have to walk back from the car, just to check I locked door!
!

Phew its not just me then .. i blame HID she forever leaving back door unlocked ..
not OCD but usualy have tees in left pocket , pen, ball marker & pitch repair in right , score card in back right , organised rather than OCD (i hope)

I have to light a cigar on the 1st, 7th & 13th tee......................I've got to give up smoking so what could I do instead?

Slime.

how many times do you check though science,i would say i atleast check back door twice

I was a terror for it, would often get out of bed if I was not satisfied, even after midnight!

I prefer balls with a 3 on them (especially pro v1 x's). If you have any spare just send them my way

 

[bladeplayer]

Yup, I also cannot go to bed unless I know the cooker is locked and the doors are turned off

your geting the hang of this thing called funny now SB .. :thup:

I sit at the same seat in locker room before each match. Feck knows what I'll do when the dude wh actually owns the locker turns up one day...

:rofl:

Mine is that I have to start the round with 8 long tees, 4 short tees, a pitch fork and 2 ball markers in my pocket. The ball I hit my first tee shot with has to be an even number, preferably a 4.

My tees and markers have to be in my left hand front pocket. Two pencils in my back right pocket with my scorecard holder.

All my clubs have to be in their specific place in the bag, i have a pitch repairer, a euro for ball marking, and tees in the front right pocket, glove back left, score card back right!
I also annouce my ball and say 'have a good round' before I tee off!
Its not ocd....... just habit!

also put my left shoe on first.........................

2 long tees, 1 short tee, 1 ball marker, 1 pitch mark repairer in the right pocket. Glove and ball in the left pocket.

Practice green, before the round, only one ball. There's no 2nd chances out on the course, so only one ball on the practice green. 2 pencils in the card holder. Clubs in the bag in a specific order, and if I have a caddy I find myself rearranging them into the 'right' order after he's put them back in the bag.

No, no ocd here...

park in the same spot in the car park. its the nearest to the first tee but away from the shop. most of the time i just lift my bag and trolly over the wee fence and jump over instead of going to the shop. when i was in england for a week my mate sent me a pic of my space. nice and empty! the way i like it! thinking of making a sign like the captain etc. lol

Only use white tees.
Always have to clean my clubs and shoes as soon as I get home.

3 bottles of Peroni, and I'm ready to roll.

 

[One Planer]

I make sure I have 3 Short tee's, 2 long tee's, pitchmark repair tool in my pocket before I walk to the 1st.

That's about it.

good lord i thought i was the only nutter ahem i mean um.....cant think of a better word for it sorry

My ocd is that i must putt 3 6 footers in a row or i wont have a good putting day, also on the first tee if i hit a bad drive i will hit bad ones all day, conversely a good one and im set for the round...totally bonkers i know but thats me.

Also my current wife (like to introduce her as that , keep her on her toes) has OCD over straighteners left on.

so much so we were going to lincoln from glasgow and had to stop at southwaite and phone for her mum to drive 10 miles to check they were off.

i should have told them that i had already checked as i know what she is like, but again thats me ...a little bit evil :O)

my dad does that too. i dont know if my fifth mam likes it though!

 

[DaveM]

I'm one of the few, who has none. Just turn up and play!

 

[golfdub]

Can't putt with a glove on. I know it doesn't really make a difference but if I realise I've forgotten to take it off I have to stop my routine, remove glove and start over.

I can't putt with my glove off. I'm trying to mix it up a bit now though.
