(3 golf course shorties) Old duffer, old crone, each with putting stick in hand, walk slow to the cup. *** Behind the 12th tee I recall forests, gone now... and I can't go back. *** Smack! Save your wooden clubs if you can. It's how golf was meant to be played. |

That's not dew---it smells too bad. Old starters sleep in, but old sprinklers lurk. *** A fifty-foot putt made for luck; a five-footer missed for foul curses! |

Looking longingly towards the clubhouse is a sure sign of fatigue. *** Some greens undulate; others can't be mowed sidehill. Approach in plain sight. (golf - not to be confused with an addictive game) |

Thonk! That got some tree. A good walk spoiled is not what golf is s'posed to be. *** You won't break 90 if you move your head, or so Arnold Palmer said. Look at the back of the ball and think about punishment. |

Green greens, green fairways, green trees rounded and spiked, and green rough a-plenty... Green grass stains and dark mud, for red ballwasher's soapy blood. |

"A shot misplayed is a stroke irrevocably lost," said Bobby Jones. Mulligans are for losers, even those who claim to win. |

7,000 yards... Just a good stretch of the legs. Take the Sunday bag. |

The length of the course? The distance from ear to ear. The mind is the game. |

^true, but decent physical resources help quite alot, too. **** Toss that grass up in the air, then chase down your hat where it's lying there. *** Some sound the flagstick makes when thrown to ground greenside--- the "caddyless" sound. |

Subtle course designers use natural folds of ground like soldiers, for cover. **** Autumn golf--- hide and seek among the maple leaves! |

Sink the putt and save the rabbit. Leave it up and a fox may grab it! (lol - justly public domain stuff  ) |

The cute gal said, "So he's the one been bombing those long ones into us!" (actual quote from years ago - maybe I should have attempted to follow through.) **** Nothing like riding a thunderstorm out under roof at the far turn. |

On a drunken walk I found the old driving range arc-lit and bulldozed. |

^The "lines in the dew" line is so true, although that same dew affects the putted ball alot, too. **** Hoist up thy slim bag and walk, for here be the clink of steel in the sack. **** Torturers hurt my eyesight. I can't see the ball finish anymore. **** When a golf course wants to take you out behind the woodshed, that it does. |

Pain of betrayal, of passing pebbles, a punch to the gut---missed putt. **** Municipial course putting-green pins are comic. Watch those warm-up swings! |

Best 4-wood ever? Some black dude, a public course well after sunset... That was the 17th Hole; he went to play it again. |

When will I play again? When will I walk the links in love with life again? It's been a long, long time, and right now I don't know when. |

The drives will pop, and putts will drop---irons you must hit with precision! ( Hurrah! for Ben Hogan's excellent book Power Golf, a worthy read from yesteryear) |
