Golf

I played a round of golf on Friday with my 3 uncles and 3 of my cousins.
I've been playing golf since I was young, probably about 6 or 7. I hadn't played a full proper round for quite a few years mind you cos none of my friends are into golf, but I wasn't too bad as a youngster and I go to the driving range now and again.
However, I was totally gash, I mean I was really really rubbish.
The par for the course is 71 i hit a 111. That's 40 over par.
40 over!!!

Turns out my driving is woeful. Every drive I hit ended up in the trees or in a burn or in some bushes or anywhere apart from the fairway.

My irons and chipping shots were
ok but then when it came to putting I went back to rubbish again!

But never mind, that doesn't matter cos I had a good day out and we all had a good laugh, especially when my cousin forgot to bring a change of shoes and had to go into the club house in his socks.

Whoever said golf is a waste of a good walk wasn't far off the mark.
