I used to play golf with my Dad and brother until the heckling between them on the course gave me the 5h1ts.
Never played, when I was in the RAF it seemed that the only lads that played were the kiss ass type who saw it as an easy way to get on, let your boss beat you and carry his bag is all it took, brown nosers the lot of them. I didn't want to be associated with them so went shooting instead.
It was the Gateway to promotion in BT, every Friday afternoon all managers disappeared to the golf course with lower grades kissing their asses :rofl2:
I've always maintained that a golf course is a waste of land that could have been used as a rifle range.
But horses for courses, whatever floats your boat etc.
I know there are some right crazy bastards who love the game eh

Nowadays it's open-slather LGBTQIDCURTMNSA pretty much any and all can be annoyed by attempting to hit a small ball with a stick into a small hole.
A good walk spoiled by the ongoing struggle.
Addicted to golf and bikes, could be worse i guess. Equal pleasure from both👍👍
Golf
The ineffectual attempt
To direct an uncontrollable sphere
Towards an inaccessible hole
With equipment ill adapted to the purpose.
Spoils a nice walk imho
Spoils a nice landscape in a lot of cases too.
