How would Shoe know what a good round of golf is like? I doubt he has ever experienced one. Unless this is what he considers to be a good round of golf.
“It’s the greatest game there is. Ask anybody. It’s fun. It’s hard and you stand out there on that green, green grass, and it’s just you and the ball and there ain’t nobody to beat up on but yourself; just like Mister Newnan keeps hittin’ himself with the golf club every time he gets angry. He’s broken his toe three times on account of it. It’s the only game I know that you can call a penalty on yourself, if you’re honest, which most people are. There just ain’t no other game like it.” Hardy Greaves in The Legend of Bagger Vance

I kind-of think golf courses would be better… converted back to feeding sheep.

The ball goes 5 feet, bounces once, and lands with a “thud”?!

It’s the game with the largest playing field, the smallest ball, and it’s the only game where you have to retrieve your own ball…

I always considered a good round of golf one in which I found more balls than I lost.

Golf is “a game that can’t be won, only played.”

Gary and Susie must be big fans of Milton Berle — he stole all his jokes, too.
