   Golf?
  Any of you play golf? I''m starting to play again now that it''s spring, but I''m not that good at it. The good place about where I live (Milwaukee) is that it has a shitload of public golf courses. Today I played at a pretty tame 9 hole course and it cost me like $8.50. Not bad for golf. I''ve heard that some country clubs can be like 20k a year. Damn, that''s like buying a nice Porsche 911 every three to four years.  
  There is actually something good about living in Milwaukee? Hot damn!  ;  I can play golf and I have the equipment, but I don''t play very much. Last summer I probably didn''t play at all, but the summer before that I did. This summer I''d like to play some more. I kind of know the right way to hit the ball, but I''m inconsistent with my swings. Usually the ball ends up too far right of where I was aiming. I get one to three strokes above par on each hole.  ;  Damn golf and summer sports...  HOCKEY!  ;  $8.50 FOR A ROUND OF GOLF???  WHOA!  Here in New Mexico, it''s like, 30 something.  Anyway, yeah, I love golf!  I just got a new set of clubs a couple days ago, and man, they''re niiice!  I shaved off 25 (count ''em) 25 strokes from my old ones!  Then again....my old ones were waaay too short...anyway, I shot a 90, which is pretty good for an average golfer...  ;  I love golf, but I suck at it.quote:Original post by shortguy465  $8.50 FOR A ROUND OF GOLF???

And I would love to shoot a 90 (assuming you mean a full 18 holes.)  Heck, I''d love to do better than 120.  ;  I''ve only played minigolf - real golf is like for rich people or something... Minigolf''s fun though.    Never do anything that is a waste of time and be prepared to wage long tedious wars over this principle - Michael O''Connor
