Golf pro

A retiree was given a set of golf clubs by his coworkers. Thinking he'd try the game, he asked the local pro for lessons, explaining that he knew nothing whatever of the game. The pro showed him the stance and swing, then said: "Just hit the ball toward the flag on the first green."

The novice teed up and smacked the ball straight down the fairway and onto the green, where it stopped inches from the hole.

"Now what?" the fellow asked the speechless pro.

"Uh... you're supposed to hit the ball into the cup," the pro finally said, after he was able to speak again.

"Oh great! NOW you tell me." said the beginner.

    Oh I know the feeling! I can get that little sucker of a ball onto the green but for the life of me it doesn't want to go down the hole! I've even checked that my mates haven't put gladwrap over the hole, just in case.

    How grown men can chase a tiny little ball through 72 holes and call it a sport beats the hell out of me.!!!

    Why waste a good walk by chasing a stupid little ball around the place.

    How hard can it be? It's one of the few bat and ball sports where the ball's not moving at a high rate of knots or spinning out of control when you hit it! Terry, are you thinking of the book "A good walk spoiled"?
