Default slang is good

A mother in Law- a putt that gets nothing but lip

A lemme- a putt near a gimme thats not conceded, lemme see you make it

A Sandy- up and out of bunker and a one putt

An Angus- a cup that was set at an angle, side of hill, uneven surface

A pukie- hungover guy throws up on a hole and still makes par

A noonan- a pressure putt

Closely Mown area- fairway height or less, used for preferred lies

I think if you want to bond more you should use more slang and make your slang the more creative. I am tired of calling bunkers "the beach" and the green the "dance floor" , the fairway "main street" and my draw a "hooker". What are other suggestions?
