A Golf Lesson

My husband is a keen golfer, he started playing when we retired five years ago and has gained four holes-in- one. The other week he asked me to join him on the golf course as his caddy, and being such a lovely day, I agreed.

A 9 hole course near St Andrews Fife

As caddy my job was to mark the golf card, I had no idea what I was marking, however as we progressed over the course, I soon learned. I became aware of the following terms, a birdie, a bogie, a double bogie and a par not to mention the uses of the different clubs.

So, as we reached the end of the game and leaving the course, my husband said as he apparently says at the end of each game "at least we achieved our objective today, a walk in the fresh air, some exercise and a lot of fun." What more could I add. Not a thing! I may even join him on another nice day and may even have a hit at the golf ball..........



A few golfing laughs to share

Golfer: Please stop checking your watch all the time. It's too much of a distraction.
Caddy: it's not a watch - it's a compass.

Golfer: That can't be my ball, it's too old.
Caddy: It's been a long time since we teed off, Sir.

Golfer: I'd move heaven and earth to break 100 on this course.
Caddy: Try heaven. You've already moved most of the earth.


Have a very pleasant day
