Good golfers?

I haven't read all the posts on this yet so appologies if I am repeating other hates. Good golfers dont use:


The rubber sucker that you put on the grip of your putter to retrieve the ball from the hole.

The Perfect Club ..... Hnestly, I noticed a picture in the papaers last week with Cathrine Zeta Whatsherface playing golf whilst her hubby is not well and she was using one .. nuff said.

Black Gloves ..... Gzus H Christ will you look at yourself man, you aint Alvin Stardust.

64* wedges .... Aye right pal, yer handicaps 23 and yer gonna flop one .. NOT. Look out on the tee, he is gonna skull one 80 yards.
 
I have a black glove, but it's one of those footjoy ones for playing in wet weather. I've only worn it once.

Does that count?
 
The little set of rubber pyramid tees tied together. Definitely not the choice of a good golfer. I wonder if my fourball partner is reading this :)

I was told that they're not legal for competitions because they could be used as an alignment aid :D
 
A good golfer NEVER changes his ball to play over water and chucks a double bogie ball into the nearest pond.
 
Absolutely, definitely, never, ever, under any circumstances, put a towel in your belt!!!!!

Oops , you've got me on that one :o I always tuck a towel in the front of my troosers through the winter. Keeps my hands/clothes/gloves clean cos of winter rules (clean the ball before every shot)and dirty great pitch marks on greens and mud everywhere.

Oh well , I can now get those castle tees out and use my wooly hat again... phew :D

R3, I think we can accept winter gloves due to mitts being black and also Phil using the during The Ryder Cup. But black golf gloves are sooooooooooo OB.
 
After reading this thread yesterday I notice someone posted " a good golfer doesn't carry a spare ball in their pocket "

I used this approach today and my tee shots were fuggin amazing, it wad just the 10 or 15 duff wedge shots that screwed my medal card. I never thought my vokey would betray me,I'm hurt :(

Spare ball in the pocket? - I don't think so. :(
and I'm not even a good golfer.
 
Good golfers don't.....

...stand on the green after holing out flailing there arm in a zig zag back down the hole to add up how many shots they have taken.

...have to say "was that a 4* for you" after leaving every green unless you've run up a biggy.

...say "I make that out in 40* for you" on the tenth tee in the middle of your pre shot routine.

*Insert other numbers as appropriate.
 
I carry a spare ball as it saves me walking all the way to my bag when I need to reload. I follow the first rule of golf - always hit the provisional first. It's crazy how the provsional always goes perfectly

Take that walk! Feel the shame. It's hardly a 2 mile run!


Might make you a better player if you concentrate on keeping the first ball in play ;)

...ever use the expression "Am I 4 down or 5 down?" :p :p :p
 
Well today my playing partner pulled out the three plastic pyramid tees! Had a little chuckle to my self thinking of the forum, course has put out the dreaded winter tee matts. Watched him nail his tee shot so decided to borrow it! I'm converted, so now I'm doomed, Ive got a chipper & plastic pyramid tees!
 
how can you possibly co-ordinate if you wear white gloves with black shoes, or black gloves with white shoes.
(but then white gloves are rather effete)

never carry a spare ball when wearing white trousers - it just ruins the line.

never have a club with a rubber sucker on the end
