I am going to golf 9 holes at Elk Rapids Golf Club. I will report back with my accurate score and that of my partners.

Sparknotes: Par is: 36 shots for 9 holes.

Feel free to use this as, "threads" to record your summer golf progress.

(Golfing/Frolfing are both acceptable scores to post in this thread).

Hence, why it is so much fun to play, and not to watch on the boob toob.

here is a video if you were expecting something more, "exciting" <object width="425" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/6ihPOTDxMfE?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/6ihPOTDxMfE?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="349" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

Last time I went golfing, I shot an 86. It was 9 holes, par 36, and that was with skipping the 7th hole.

  Being as accurate as tiger even now is much much better than me just playing like usual.

Played 9 this morning. Shot a 47. Not too happy. I usually shoot in the low to mid 40's on 9 holes. I love the sport.

this spring was my first legitimate season playing. on wednesday i walked 9. coming onto the 9th i was shooting a 42 and all i had to do was get less than eight shots on the hole and i would break 50. i wasn't even worrying about this seeing as i birdied the last hole and parred the two before it. so this fat fuck that i was golfing with decides to tell me in my backswing: "if you don't fuck this up you could score under 50." i topped the ball and couldn't find it. long story short i ended up shooting an eight on that hole. i was quite pissed.

not at all.

it is IMO FAR better than most "sports" to watch. because you get to see a variety of things happening and they happen much faster than say football where its one play that lasts maybe 30 seconds and then commercial break. whereas in golf you get to see tiger hit, then phil chip in, then its over to Adam Scott, then its back to Tiger, and so on and so forth.

dont let people tell you its worse than any other sport to watch on TV
