Golf Terms

"Golf Terms"*

*A Fairway on the Golf Course is a narrow strip
of mown grass that separates two groups of
golfers who are out looking for lost balls in the rough.

A sand trap on the golf course is a deep
depression filled with golfers who are in a deep depression.

Golfing is the art of using a bowed club and a
flawed swing, a poor stance and tight shoes,
a weak grip and a lose shank tape on the handle
of the club, to hit a small ball badly toward the wrong hole, out of turn.

"Sand Trap"*

*Friend of mine named Dan hates to lose at golf.
He was in a foursome when his ball landed in a sand trap.

Hidden from view, the rest of us could hear him
as he hacked away at the ball.

When he finally drove it out, and rejoined us,
I asked him how many strokes that was.

"Three." he replied.

"Oh come on!" said another member of the group. "I heard six."

"Three..." replied Dan, "were echoes."
