I've thrown or broken a few clubs in my day. In fact, I guess at one time or another I probably held distance records for every club in the bag.

There is no better game in the world when you are in good company, and no worse game when you are in bad company.

Putting allows the touchy golfer two to four opportunities to blow a gasket in the short space of two to forty feet.

Always throw your clubs ahead of you. That way you don't have to waste energy going back to pick them up.

I know you can be fined for throwing a club, but I want to know if you can get fined for throwing a caddie?

The good chip allows you to whistle while you walk in the dark alleys of golf.
