Golf Poem 
 
In My Hand I Hold A Ball,
White And Dimpled, Rather Small.
Oh, How Bland It Does Appear,
This Harmless Looking Little Sphere.
 
By Its Size I Could Not Guess,
The Awesome Strength It Does Possess.
But Since I Fell Beneath Its Spell,
I've Wandered Through The Fires Of Hell.
 
My Life Has Not Been Quite The Same,
Since I Chose To Play This Stupid Game.
It Rules My Mind For Hours On End,
A Fortune It Has Made Me Spend.
 
It Has Made Me Yell, Curse And Cry,
I Hate Myself And Want To Die.
It Promises A Thing Called Par,
If I Can Hit It Straight And Far.

To Master Such A Tiny Ball,
Should Not Be Very Hard At All.
But My Desires The Ball Refuses,
And Does Exactly As It Chooses.
 
It Hooks And Slices, Dribbles And Dies,
And Even Disappears Before My Eyes.
Often It Will Have A Whim,
To Hit A Tree Or Take A Swim.
 
With Miles Of Grass On Which To Land,
It Finds A Tiny Patch Of Sand.
Then Has Me Offering Up My Soul,
If Only It Would Find The Hole.
 
It's Made Me Whimper Like A Pup,
And Swear That I Will Give It Up.
And Take To Drink To Ease My Sorrow,
But The Ball Knows ... I'll Be Back Tomorrow. 
 
Stand proud you noble swingers of clubs and losers of balls.... 
 
A recent study found the average golfer walks about 900 miles a year.
 
Another study found golfers drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year. 

That means, on average, golfers get about 41 miles to the gallon. 
 
Kind of makes you proud. Almost feel like a hybrid.


One day one of our - name withheld for obvious reasons - faithful Cassville members was getting ready to putt on the 18th green when a funeral procession started coming down Highway 112. He stepped up away from his putt and looked toward the procession and took his hat off and stood perfectly still until the procession had passed. As he was preparing to return to his putt, a member of his foursome told him he thought that was very respectful and kind that he stop putting while the procession passed. To which he replied, "Well, you know we were married for 14 years."



To his surprise, the old man played fairly quickly. He didn't hit the ball far, but plodded along consistently and didn't waste much time. Finally, they reached the 9th fairway and the young man found himself with a tough shot. There was a large pine tree right in front of his ball and directly between his ball and the green. After several minutes of debating how to hit the shot, the old man finally said, "You know, when I was your age, I'd hit the ball right over that tree."

With that challenge placed before him, the youngster swung hard, hit the ball up, right smack into the top of the tree trunk and it thudded back on the ground not a foot from where it had originally lay.

The old man offered one more comment, "Of course, when I was your age, that pine tree was only 3 feet tall." (Submitted by Jeanie Shoup)



A pastor, a doctor and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with these guys? We must have been waiting for 15 minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such ineptitude!" The pastor said, "Hey, here comes the greens keeper. Let's have a word with him." "Hi George! Say, what's with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?"

The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes, that's a group of blind firefighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The group was silent for a moment. The pastor said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. And I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist buddy and see if there's anything he can do for them." The engineer said, "Why can't these guys play at night?"

The Little White Ball

- A golfer asked his friend, "Why are you so late?"

The friend replied, "It's Sunday. I had to toss a coin between going to church or playing golf and it took 25 tosses to get it right!"

- A gushy reporter told Jack Nicklaus, "You are spectacular, and your name is synonymous with the game of golf. You really know your way around the golf course. What's your secret?"

Nicklaus replied, "The holes are numbered."



- A young man and a priest were playing golf together. At a short par-3 the priest asked, "What are you going to use on this hole, my son?"

The young man said, "An 8--iron, Father. How about you?"

The priest said, "I'm going to hit a soft seven and pray."

The young man hit his 8--iron and put his ball on the green. The priest topped his 7--iron and dribbled the ball a few yards.

The young man said, "I don't know about you Father, but in my Church when we pray, we keep our head down."



- An American went to Scotland and played golf with a newly acquainted Scottish golfer. After a bad tee shot, the American played a "Mulligan" which was an extremely good shot.. He then asked the Scot, "What do you call a Mulligan in Scotland?"

- Police were called to an apartment and found a woman holding a bloody 5--iron standing over a lifeless man.

The detective asked, "Ma'am, is that your husband?"

"Yes," said the woman.

"Did you hit him with that golf club?"

"Yes, yes, I did." The woman began to sob, dropped the club, and put her hands over her face.

"How many times did you hit him?"

"I don't know. Five, six, maybe seven times. Just put me down for a five.
