Some new golf lingo!
Picked these up from Phil's Fun Blog
New Golf Lingo.....
Some new lingo to use when you're out on the course...
A 'Rock Hudson' - a putt that looked straight, but wasn't
A 'Saddam Hussein' - from one bunker into another
A 'Yasser Arafat' - butt ugly and in the sand
A 'John Kennedy Jr.' - didn't quite make it over the water
A 'Rodney King' - over-clubbed
An 'OJ.'- got away with one
A 'Princess Grace' - should have used a driver
A 'Princess Di' - shouldn't have used the driver
A 'Condom' - safe, but didn't feel very good
A 'Brazilian' - shaved the hole
A 'Rush Limbaugh' - a little to the right
A 'Nancy Pelosi' - Way to the left and out of bounds
A 'James Joyce' - a putt that's impossible to read
A 'Ted Kennedy' - goes in the water and jumps out
A 'Pee Wee Herman' - too much wrist
A 'Sonny Bono' - straight into the trees
A 'Mickey Mantle' - a dead yank
A 'Paris Hilton' - a very expensive hole
they have an American slant so youcan play with the Nancy Pelosi and Rush Limbaugh ones!

One small correction regarding the deuces, there was one other deuce by "Smooth Swinging" Jack Angstadt on May 27/09.
Next week we intend to have participants draw a number of a tee block out of the hat and you are put in foursomes to play a team game of either One, Two, Three or else a Texas Scramble format. This mix up will ensure that we play with some of the other members at least once a month!
Larry's prostate exam explanation can not be repeated here! Something about two hands on the shoulders?

May 14 Weldon Steel Trophy Match
Rob Egan, AlJakel, Ley McMillan, and Rick Baker went to Meadow Creek where it rained and hailed and sleeted and almost blew down the flagstaffs - they needed excuses as they went down to a crushing defeat at the hands of the Logan Lake Crew! But thanks for going out and giving it your all even if the greens were tough to putt on!
Last week they got 2 1/2 points at home and in the heights of Highland Valley they got one point and Meadow Creek/Logan Lake took the round 8 and 1/2 points to 3 and 1/2 for our guys!
Logan Lake was represented by Bruce Campbell, Ray Owen, Orville Humphrey and Jack Heitz! Thanks for the hospitality!

Overheard at the Pro Shop! Jeff was talking to a young lady who had taken lessons from him. She went out and returned about 15 minutes later. Jeff could see she was not happy and he asked her "What's up?"
She said, " A bee stung me somewhere between the first and second hole!"
Jeff's ever ready and professional answer was - " There you have it, I thought your stance was too wide!"
