Golf.....Good to learn or a money-pit of constant frustraton

Learning to play golf at the moment and I have to say I am really enjoying it.

I used to play lots, but have fallen out of the habit lately. It's a great game when it's going well but the worst game in the world when you're playing badly.

All my "old" friends now play golf - but I'm too bust playing Rugby -

Golf takes up too much time [ not as bad as cricket though ]

And yes it's a huge money muncher

This is the thing about golf, the more you play it the better you get. However, just when you think it's going well, you completely shank one when there is an audience and look a right

.

This is round about the time you lose:

Face,
The will to live,
The will to carry on playing,
A chunk of your bank balance as you inevitably blame the clubs and buy even more expensive ones to shank the ball with,

That's about the size of it!

You do see a lot of idiots out on municipal courses with a £1500 set of clubs and still no clue of how to hit a ball tho

ST don't do it - before too long you'll start wearing horrible trousers and shirts, hang on a minute you already do!

Go for it.

2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 SE Arctic Frost

I have always fancied a long weekend golf break in Ireland.

18 holes every morning and lots of the black stuff in the afternoons and evenings.

Pure heaven. Arctic Frost TDV6 SE. Aspen Leather, Cherry Wood, Privacy Glass, PTI, Tow Pack, Mudflaps, Tasmods, a new Fuelflap, a RRSport.co.uk umbrella in the boot & a RRSport.co.uk sticker on the rear glass.

Golf is for girls. Take up a sport not a game and learn to shoot, far more satifying than hitting a white ball about - go out a kill something ggrrrr
