Don't buy a putter until you've had a chance to throw it.

Never try to keep more than 300 separate thoughts in your mind during
your swing.

When your shot has to carry over a water hazard, you can either hit
one more club or two more balls.

If you're afraid a full shot might reach the green while the foursome
ahead of you is still putting out, you have two options: you can
immediately shank a lay-up or you can wait until the green is clear
and top a ball halfway there..

The less skilled the player, the more likely he is to share his ideas
about the golf swing.

No matter how bad you are playing, it is always possible to play worse.

The inevitable result of any golf lesson is the instant elimination of
the one critical unconscious motion that allowed you to compensate for
all of your many other errors

Everyone replaces his divot after a perfect approach shot.

A golf match is a test of your skill against your opponents' luck.

It is surprisingly easy to hole a fifty foot putt . For a 10.

Counting on your opponent to inform you when he breaks a rule is like
expecting him to make fun of his own haircut.

Nonchalant putts count the same as chalant putts

It's not a gimme if you're still 5 feet away.

The shortest distance between any two points on a golf course is a
straight line that passes directly through the center of a very large
tree.

You can hit a two acre fairway 10% of the time and a two inch branch
90% of the time.

If you really want to get better at golf, go back and take it up at a
much earlier age.

Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually
the beginning of the next group of three.

When you look up, causing an awful shot, you will always look down
again at exactly the moment when you ought to start watching the ball -
if you ever want to see it again.

Every time a golfer makes a birdie, he must subsequently make two
triple bogeys to restore the fundamental equilibrium of the universe.

If you want to hit a 7 iron as far as Tiger Woods does, simply try to
lay up just short of a water hazard.

To calculate the speed of a player's downswing, multiply the speed of
his back-swing by his handicap; I.e., back-swing 20 mph, handicap 15,
downswing = 300 mph.

There are two things you can learn by stopping your back-swing at the
top and checking the position of your hands: how many hands you have,
and which one is wearing the glove.

Hazards attract; fairways repel.

A ball you can see in the rough from 50 yards away is not yours.

If there is a ball on the fringe and a ball in the bunker, your ball
is in the bunker. If both balls are in the bunker, yours is in the
footprint

It's easier to get up at 6:00 AM to play golf than at 10:00 to mow the lawn

A good drive on the 18th hole has stopped many a golfer from giving up
the game.

Golf is the perfect thing to do on Sunday because you always end up
having to pray a lot.

A good golf partner is one who's always slightly worse than you
are....that's why I get so many calls to play with friends.

If there's a storm rolling in, you'll be having the game of your life.

Golf balls are like eggs. They're white. They're sold by the dozen.
And you need to buy fresh ones each week.

It's amazing how a golfer who never helps out around the house will
replace his divots, repair his ball marks, and rake his sand traps.

If your opponent has trouble remembering whether he shot a six or a
seven, he probably shot an eight (or worse).
