I never said golf didn't require skill. I played a lot of golf when I was a kid. I just don't like it. Am I good at it? Oh hell no, but if I didn't think it sucked I would try to get better.
Put quarter inch wide steel under their shoes, put them on ice while moving 20-30 mph and other people trying to knock them into last week and putting the ball in a hole.
so yes it takes skill to hit it straight then put it in a small hole but they have the luxury of eliminating a lot of external forces.
It’s interesting how golfers will never concede. If a golfer said yeah it takes skill but it’s a lot easier than other sports.
And that’s the good name brand ones....just imagine what they’re putting in the store brand baloney rolls. Processed meat is fucking disgusting. It’s like olive loaf. How the fuck do they get olives mixed in the meat? Good sausage from a butcher is the only meat tube product I’ll eat.The only thing that you could put on a hot dog to insult it is baby diarrhea. A hot dog is a tube of ground up pig assholes for Christ’s sake.
Well in his defense you do have to pay a premium for beef hotdogs. Who really knows what the cheap ones are made out of? Could be a pigs ass I suppose
So putting a little white ball in that hole is definitely out of the question. maybe golf does require skill?
I never said golf does not require skill I just don’t believe it is a sport.

Tennis and golf you have the option of silence to concentrate.
I think baseball is boring as golf but even those guys have to concentrate on hitting a dynamic target while fans are yelling and causing distraction.
basketball at the free throw line Takes the same amount of hand eye coordination and concentration while fans are yelling and waving shit.
It’s interesting how golfers will never concede. If a golfer said yeah it takes skill but it’s a lot easier than other sports. I get it, if you don’t have perfect swings the ball does not go where you want it to go. Add distractions and some sort of athletic element like doing 50 push ups before each swing and running to the ball like those speed golfers do it.
Playing and competing are two different things. I can play basketball, but there is no way I can play competitively.
Just because older people, or obese people play casual rounds of golf, doesn't put them at the same level as someone like Tiger woods.
Call it a hobby, a game, a sport.. it doesnt matter. The fact is that the majority of people couldn't hit a straight 300 yrd drive to save their life! So when you see the pros do what they do, you learn to appreciate the skill and athleticism involved.
Maybe these guys were discussing what they were going to put on their hotdogs when they got to the 19th hole. Should have been watching where they were going. You can't tell it but that's a 4-5 foot straight drop into the ditch. Beer cans everywhere and they grabbed their shit and left without telling the pro shop.

This is where handicap comes in play. Good points.
When the subject of how to increase golf's popularity comes up my suggestion is to encourage people to not keep score. Don't give out score cards unless they insist. Because you can only be so bad at basketball, or baseball, or name the sport. But it's easy to be embarrassingly, epicly bad at golf. So just don't keep score. Get some beer, go out and drink and enjoy yourself, and maybe run a cart into a ditch.
This is the kind of shit that makes it hard for me to rent a cart. Shit happens, no body forgives shit anymore. I bet they parked the cart and some kids did that to it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.Maybe these guys were discussing what they were going to put on their hotdogs when they got to the 19th hole. Should have been watching where they were going.

We have our own mechanic. So unless they totaled it we'd eat it. Or maybe take it off the property. Then they may be held liable.If insurance covers it sure. But if you eat the damage that wouldn't be good for business either
