The Best Reasons for Playing Golf

• Beats mowing the lawn. • Having a ball is par for the course. • You can play without risk of scandal (most of the time!). • There’s always a doctor nearby. • The worse your game, the better the exercise. • Carrying clubs is socially acceptable. • More fun than doing business at the office. • Putting is such sweet sorrow. • Great excuse to take a walk. • Rather sink a bird than hook a fish. • Old golfers never die. They just putter out. • There’s no par at the 19th hole. • It’s educational. You learn the meanings of such words as slice, shank, divot, bogey, mulligan, hacker, worm burner, and duffer.
