Hi Everyone.
I never took up golf until I was 55 years old, and it took me quite a while to understand many of the rules of golf, and just when I thought I was getting the hand of things I have just found out about some other laws of our great game, which I have written.for your perusal.
LAW 1 No matter how bad your last shot was, your worst shot is yet to come, this law does not expire on the 18th hole.
LAW 2. Your best round of golf will be followed almost immediately by your worst round ever. The probabilty of the latter increases with the number of people you tell about your best round.
LAW 3. Brand new golf balls seem to be water-magnectic, although this can not be proven in a lab, it is a known fact the the more expensive the golf balls, the greater attraction to water..
LAW 4. No matter what causes a golfer to muff his shot, all his playing parters must solemnly chant "You Lifted your Head" or invoke the wrath of the universe.
LAW 5. The higher a golfers handicap , the more qualified he deems himself an instructor.
LAW 6. Every Par -3 hole in the world has the secret desire to humiliate golfers, the shorter the hole the greater the desire.
LAW 7 A Golfer hitting a ball into your golf group will always be bigger than anyone in your golf group, Likewise if you happen to hit your ball into a group they will consit of a football player, convicted murderer, or similar combination.
LAW 8. A severe slice is a thing of awesome power and beauty.and you muttering "if only it had been straight"
LAW 9."Nice Lag up" can usually be translated to "Lousy putt"or "Tough Break" can mean you should not have missed that.
LAW 10 All vows and promises taken on a golf course shall be valid only until sunset of the same day..
and how true most of these are to me.
Happy Golfing from Scottish Bob
