The Gospel According to St. Titleist . . .


For all those friends of yours who reguarly ruin a good walk, by beating an unfortunate little white ball around the place ahead of themselves with a metal stick !

1. Eighteen holes of match play will teach you more about your foe than 18 years of dealing with him across a desk.
~Grantland Rice

2. Golf appeals to the idiot in us as well as the child. Just how child-like golf players become is proven by their frequent inability to count past five.
~John Updike

3. It is almost impossible to remember how tragic a place the world is when one is playing golf.
~Robert Lynd

4. If profanity had any influence on the flight of the ball, the game of golf would be played far better than it is.
~Horace G. Hutchinson

5. They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is much more complicated than that.
~ Gardner Dickinson

6. If most people held a knife and fork as poorly as they do a golf club, they'd starve to death.
~Sam Snead

7 Golf is a day spent in a round of strenuous idleness.
~William Wordsworth

8. If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.
~Dean Martin

9. If you are going to throw a club, it is important to throw it ahead of you, down the fairway, so you don't have to waste time and energy going back to pick it up.
~Tommy Bolt

10. Man blames fate for all other accidents, but feels personally responsible when he makes a hole-in-one.
~Bishop Sheen

11. I don't say my golf game is bad, but if I grew tomatoes, they'd come up sliced.
~ Arnold Palmer

12. My handicap ? woods and irons !
~Chris Codiroli

13. The ardent golfer would play Mount Everest if somebody just put a flag stick on top.
~Pete Dye

14. I'm hitting the woods just great, but having a terrible time getting out of them !
~Buddy Hackett

15. The only time my prayers are never answered is playing golf.
~Billy Graham

16. If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball !
~Jack Lemmon

17. It's good sportsmanship not to pick up lost golf balls, while they are still rolling !
~Mark Twain

18. Don't play too much golf. Two rounds a day are plenty.
~Harry Vardon

19. Golf and sex are the only things you can enjoy without really being particularly good at either of them !
~Raymond Willis

20. May thy ball lie only in green pastures, and not in still waters or small odd-shaped sandy regions.
~Ben Hogan
21. If I hit it right, it's a slice. If I hit it left, it's a hook. If I hit it straight, it's a miracle.
~All Us Hackers

22. The difference between golf and government is that in golf you can't improve your lie.
~George Deukmejian

AND FINALLY................

23. Golf is a game invented by the same people who think music comes out of bagpipes.
~Lee Trevino
