Depends on which game your playing. Golf... or a drinking game where chasing a little white ball is involved. I've been known to play both. Sometimes even on the same day.
So the question is ‘Do you drink while you play golf?’ Or ‘Do you play golf while you drink?’

Yes

Actually, I stopped drinking about a month ago to kinda get healthier. But some day, if I play again, the answer will probably still be yes.
 
The drinking may have been part of the problem..... lol.... I did end up scoring a 130 in 18 holes.... And I was always last to get the ball in the hole.... I think when I got chewed out by some old chappy asshole about not raking up the sand ditch. At that point I thought people just take it too serious...... Hell I truly didn't know that rake was to clean it up.

I didn't feel it was a waste or money, and any time you can spend with your pals, even if it something you find ridiculous.... I'm always down to give it whirl...... My choices were either spend time with my wife and my pals wives for six hours (fuck that).... Or play an expensive form of Croquet and have attractive girls make awesome Mai Tais in the Arizona sun.... Choice was obvious.
You can not find fault with "some old chappy asshole" for letting you know to rake the trap. Just chalk it up to the lesson learned category.
One you learn the basics of golf etiquette it goes a lot more smoothly. Fix your divots in the greens. If you take a hack out of the fairway put it back and tap it down, don't flap your jaw while people are putting or taking their backswings and rake the traps after you get in one.
Golf is fantastic and the thing about it, you can never ,ever shoot a perfect round. Its not possible but its rewarding when you shoot low 80s or high 70s. Its not like bowling where you can bowl a 300, no comparison.
10-11 handicap about the best I ever got, used to play a LOT of golf. But it takes so much of your time if you want to be good at it. Need to play once a week or more just to keep your swing in shape.
I have too much to do right now but when I retire in a few years I will go back to playing lots of golf.
I never got a cart, I think they are lame. Walking a few miles is very good for you so if you can walk, walk. Just use one of those pull carts and you are good. It keeps you a lot more flexible, kinda tough to sit in a cart, jump out and make a great swing.

I few drinks is perfect gets you in the right frame of mind....fine line though.
Yeah, I used to play with a guy, bet on it. And he would drink a six pack+ and kick my ass.
The right frame of mind for me is a nice sunny day with your pals and walking around nature and going to war with that little white ball.
My thing was the short game with my Ping beryllium copper L wedge. I have never lost a chip off in my life. Gots lots of practice at it from missing greens !

Those are all very good points, but just don't come up yelling at me and be confrontational like you're going to try and knock my block off. I just ignored it and my pal went over and talked to the 80 year old bastard and explained the situation. But I still didn't go re-rake it, so my pal did it for me....

I love bowling even though I completely suck at it.... Just the premise heaving a marble ball as fast as you can and watching pins fly all over the place is just absolutely AWESOME.
 

Never a doubt on this with me. During the Panther game he was probably not getting a good feel in that finger. Maybe even some numbness...but as the game went on, he got the feel and began shredding that secondary again.

Funny as we hear about the Rams secondary but Carolina surrendered over 300 passing also but their corners are so much better? In fact the Panthers are only a notch above the Rams in passing defense at 16.

Also...the Bears are 29th in passing defense...BUT...does that mean the Rams will shred them??? We're gonna see Sunday night.

I never played Golf, years ago went with a couple of co-workers. I had no power but was accurate. Got a 69 first game. I did a lot of putt putt dates, maybe that helped.

Bowling I was scoring in 70's but then played a lot and averaged in the 140-160 range, my stepfather was a 250+ man.
I can't curve the ball shoot straight shots.

Soccer never played.... If it's boring too watch, to me it's boring to play.

Golf I played one time with pals in Arizona when we went to a Rams game. The only thing I found great were the pretty girls serving mixed drinks in the mobile bars. .... To me that was just awesome!!!! Playing the games itself.... total thumbs down....
Maybe you're just not very good at it? It's a great game when you're playing well.

I thought Snaz referenced Putt-Putt golf in his post.

I know little about golf.
Is Putt-Putt the same as Pitch-and-Putt (all par 3s); or is it just miniature golf?
Putt Putt is 18 holes but they have like weird puzzle courses.

Yes Par I think was 72 and I was -3, that was my first game. I went golfing like 3 times in my lifetime. 2nd and third time was mid to upper 70s. So must have been a really good biorhythm day or luck. But all three time I played better than the other two guys that played frequently. I wasn't particularly enjoying the game at all. I could hit the ball and it would go straight, no curve to it. Went the way I wanted it to go. But I was easily 20 yards behind the other two. I the one day I was like on the green and putted in on first try.

This was in my early 20s, I played Racquetball competitively, Flag Football, worked out 3 times a week, was going to college and working full time. Dated a lot but no long term relationships. So had a lot of time to myself.
