| On Golfing Blindly.
I've always been amazed at blind golfers.
I've seen one-armed golfers, paraplegic golfers and
deaf and dumb golfers. But it's the blind golfers
that amaze me. Charley Boswell was America's best
known blind golf champion. He used to intimidate his
opponents by saying things like "That's the worst
swing I ever heard" or "I'm glad you see the hazards
on this course -- they'd scare the hell out of me!"
Do you remember the old joke about
when Arnold Palmer was challenged to a match by a
blind golfer? The blind golfer told Arnie to pick
the day and the course. He'd pick the time.
"Sure," said Palmer, "we'll play at
Sawgrass next Tuesday."
"Great," said the blind champion. "Tuesday
at Sawgrass it is. I'll call for a tee time. We shouldn't
have a problem getting one around midnight!"
The
Funniest Game:
Execution:
What must a golfer shoot to assure tournament victory?
--The rest of the players.
Tipsy:
"If you're drinking, don't drive.
Don't even putt." --Dean Martin
Profound:
If golf is good exercise, why isn't mowing the lawn?
Bare Fact:
Women were once prohibited from topless sunbathing
at Wellingsborough Golf Club in England because one
golfer complained the distraction caused him to lose
control of his putter.
