What things do we blame (both fair and unfair?) - top excuses

[Durango]

Couldn't sleep the night before, greens are ****, got the worst of the weather AGAIN, too many slow players, not been playing much recently so very rusty, who put that tree/bunker/hazard there, barely eaten anything, erm probably several more that I use regularly!

Just remembered my regular playing partner was have a right ole whinge about his putter, "never working", so he went for a short game MOT including a session on putting, after which he came away with a new putter, and lo and behold on our last round after a few holes, he proclaimed "this bloody putter doesn't work"

Midges.

I blame muscle tightness when my swing gets too arm-sy and I end up hooking.

I will blame the hot weather/dehydration/sweat in eyes, anything I can get hold of if I start a round badly.

Of course, after 3 holes when it's perfectly obvious it's going to be a round of more comedy than quality, there's little point hunting for excuses - that's when the acceptance stage hits.

I dont make excuses, I'm either crap or crapper lol
One of my mates however is another story. Literally anything that goes wrong is in no way down to him. Heard a few the other day, got pissed off with it, and ended up finishing at the 12th hole. Can't play with whingers and moaners!!

For me it's usually something to do with the greens.
Got the whole year covered.

Winter - Too slow
Spring - Too bumpy
Summer -Too quick
