Funny story;

I golf with a guy that uses a clicker to count strokes. We are both hacks, so the clicker does help. He hits the ball and click. Pretty quiet day on the course and you can hear the thing across the fairway.

Anyhow, a few years ago we were golfing a pretty heavily wooded course and he got into the trees at the side of the fairway. He hits the ball and I hear it "whack" into the trees and then "click". Ball didn't go anywhere. Next hit, "Whack", then "Fu#&" and click. Another hit, Whack, Fu#& and click. I was not even able to stand after the fourth Whack, Fu#&, click. He finally kicked the ball out onto the fairway to find my laying on the ground laughing.

Still brings laughs just thinking about him looking at me saying "What is so Funny"?

LMAO! Been there, done that, but with out the clicky. When I golf with my buds, we count every stroke. One day I hit it into the bunker to the right of the green, hit it out of that bunker into the bunker on the other side of the green. And then out of that one back into the other one, and then out of that one into the other one again, then I finally got it on the green. My buddy Joe was laughing his azz off. Ended up with a 9 on that hole. :(:mad::eek::D Good times!

I gave up golf years ago as I was the slice king. One time I even hit my buddy with the ball as he was starting to walk forward on the side, that was enough for me. Now my gentlemans game of choice is skeet shooting which my bro-in-law got into and we now both do it quite often.

I sure hope you're not a graduate of the (Vice President) Richard B. Cheney School o' Quail and Skeet Shootin'! :)

(Your bro-in-law isn't a lawyer, is he? :eek: )

Wait, wait, hold it a second......So you and I are out on a golf course together, I am standing NEXT to you, and you hit me with your ball. Now, you want me to go skeet shooting with you????
I'm thinkin' I'll find something else to do, I'll catch up with you at the bar later.....!

I guess I have to explain. He had started walking off the tee and was 20-30 yards out on the side which he should have waited til I was done to start walking. I was 'pointing' the club in the right direction but the ball took off in another direction not so predictable in my eyes, now with skeet you sure do not walk out in front of shooters and where I 'point' the gun it is pretty darn predictable where the shot is going, it may not break the bird but I know where it is going. And trust me there is no shenanigans on the skeet field.

edit: I just saw nash's post after my post. You guys crack me up!! Trust me I found a sport that works for me and I do pretty well at it definitely a lot better than golf!!
