I'm one those people who are hopelessly addicted to the game. I play as much as I can. Been playing for 20 years. But at the same time, I'm one of those people who lack that one key skill to be any good at the game. Frankly, I suck. Bad. I'm usually 100+. But it gets me out of the house and in the sun. So every year, I convince myself that I'm better than I really am and for some stupid reason keep playing.
 
lol, my usuall on average score is around 85-90. my best is 73.

no offence but i think all golfer are snobs...and i just hate the game and oit is so boring.and all u do is wack balls around.foour of mty cousins play it for school
 
I live on a golf course, and hate golfers with a passion...and they hate me.

If you ain't golfing, I don't have issues, just the minute you start wacking balls, you're the enemy.
 
sounds liek fun me and kwong are enemies now!!!:cheers: i golf and i aint no dang snob. i dont see why people think that golfers are stuck up rich people. i am a layed back poor assed white boy and i still play.

I play golf eabout 2-3 times a year. I like the sport, but don't have the time to play much. I average about 120. My best is 110. Yes I know I suck!
 
lol it is all good. i am playing tuesday cause we aint got no school

The only reason you should play golf is to drink beer and play crash up derby with the golf carts baby! How can they call golf a sport. Now if they had a 350lb lineman coming at them while they was trying to tee off or putt one in the hole then maybe.
 
I just love people's impression of golf. Just whacking balls around. And how is that essentially different than baseball, our national pastime? The same could be said for that. Just hittina a ball and running around.

And kwong, those of us who have been around long enough know why you have a gripe with golfers. The rule is simple. Don't drive your truck where I'm golfing, and I won't golf out of your yard. Hell, I question anyone who buys a house on a golf course. Hmmm...let's see....I want to buy a few hundred thousand dollars worth of real estate mere feet from a place where small, hard, plastic balls are routinely being hurled around at over 100 mph. Why not build a house in a jai-lai court?
 
i dont think golf is a sport....u wack the ball get in your golf cart and go find the ball then if u did not get it to the gren the u wack it again.and go find it a hopefully u got it to the green this time. the you put it in the hole...to me that aint fun

I agree that golf should not be considered a "sport". Bowling, Table tennis (ping pong), Darts, Billiards (pool), Auto Racing, Horse racing, and even some olympic events like Curling all take alot of skill, concentration, and effort but they are NOT sports. I guess you can make the argumant about Baseball too but there is "some" level of physical activity so it rides the fence.

A sport should be something that you have to be in shape for. Something that requires a good amount of physical activity. Something that is person against person, team against team, battleing towards a common goal and one overcomming the other.

Having said all of that, the last time I went out and played a round (18 holes) I think I scored a 102. I can't wait until I get the time to get back on the fairway. I find it a kind of therapy....away from the females...away from work...away from the city...But yes i agree, its a walk in the park, hit a ball, chase the ball, repeat.

But the same can be said about bashing our RCs. Bunch fo guys getting together somewhere, shootin the poop, running their rides, crashing or flipping, chasing after it turning it back over and repeating. What was the mantra? Bash, break, fix, repeat.....
 
I thought the word 'Sport' defines a competitive event?

Sport in my sense has nothing to do with physical activity alone, but with the spirit of fair competition. Isn't that why you tell someone to 'be a good sport' in case he tries to cheat his way through the game?

Anyway... i play chess for aboot 20 years and i do see it as a sport, even though i suck in it.

Baseball sucks to in my opinion, definetly not my national pastime. NFL, NASCAR, and College Basketball and Football, thats what I enjoy. But everyone enjoys different things and to each is own. The only thing that matters is if you enjoy it.
 
i golf - badly. usually shoot about 100-120. best was an 89. think i was just lucky that day. u have to golf in florida - ecspecially in orlando. florida has more courses per square mile than any other state in the country, and orlando more than any other city.
 
Scummer u are right. A sport is something that is competitive. Anyone can be in physical shape, but if u don't have the talent or mind to do it u can't compete. It takes more than being in physiacl shape.
 
i dont see why baseball is a sport. all u do is hit a ball and run around and touch little white squares!!:argue: lol o well, i recently won $200 in a tourny, and i am only 15! that went towards new diffs.

Dude golf rules. I have my own clubs that only come out about once a year. I usually play pitch n' puts cuz most everyone there sucks like me. Later
 
I love the sport and play when I can. It's great for getting out of the house or office and breathing some fresh air. I'm surrounded by golf courses in all directions.
