What's your golfing persona?

How about the chattebox - the guy who is constantly talking to his ball on every shot from the opening drive until the tap in at the end. Asking it to "sit, spin, get down, get up, die, get there" etc and wonders why the bloody thing never listens

I would have deemed the chatterbox as one who don't stop talking when your playing :mad:
 
The Student

Diligently practices the pros advice, listening to one single source and that one only, feels the pro is like a second father and the player is the prodigal son. The one thing the students game lacks is heart.

I used to be a tinkerer, now I am a student! I also approach golf like I do science, logical and technical (vulcan golf).

 
Mr Blinkered - Normally lower handicapper, walks down the fairway after his tee shot and then cuts across your bows as HIS ball is on your side of the fairway (just as well the old shoe spikes are working well today!).

Changes clubs, in his bag, as you are about to play.

Walks between you and your ball as you are lining up your putt and then marks his ball and proceeds to manicures his line, all within your putting field of vision.

ALL THIS WITHOUT REALISING HE IS DOING IT!!
 
Mr If only - Comes in after a round telling that but for 1 or 2 bad shots his round would have been brilliant.

ie, "if I hadn't gone OOB on the 2nd I would have had a par, so in theory I should have had 15 instaed of 13 points".

I would have thought The Misses would have been a better discription.
 
2 more suggestions
1. The know it all
He's normally mid handicap has a bit of knowledge but will tell you everything you did wrong on every shot you hit, even before the ball has landed.

2. The story teller.
Sits in the bar after a round and tells you in very fine detail, every shot he hit, despite the fact that you were playing with him :mad:
 
Stableford man. 42 points with 3 blobs.

Did he break 100?

Isn't that BLOB MAN - can't tell you his score without mentioning how many holes he blobbed?

Could also be named 'Mystery Man', 'Cryptic Man' or 'Anything That Makes My Score Sound Better Man' :)
 
How about.
The Twitch - this is my mate to a T. Is hypersensitive to every sound, every movement, every change of light - the sort who can literally hear a butterfly fart in a thunderstorm - and goes beserk if anybody dare breathe when he's on the tee.

This is allied to his other component, The Olympian - after every bad shot he's trying for the club hurling record

A story about a story teller.... (what does that make me then?)


I was on the course when the Captain (an old friend) was out with The Story Teller - as we passed between holes the Captain called me aside and said "is he for real?, we've only played 4 holes and he's told me about every round he's ever played"

The only answer I could give was " your the lucky one", "how do you figure that one" he asked. " your playing with him today, we've still got to hear about the round, you havn't" !!

There is one of those already - he's called Monty :D
