Why People Suck At Golf

Since I just got off the course, I asked one of the AI engines and this is the answer.

Ah, golf. That beloved sport where people spend hours on the green, only to come back with a score that would make a caveman proud. Why do people suck at golf, you ask? Well, let me enlighten you with my wit and sarcasm.

First and foremost, it’s because golf is a game of precision, and who needs that in their life? I mean, who wants to spend their weekends perfecting their swing, when they could be binge-watching the latest season of “The Bachelor”? It’s so much more fun to watch other people’s lives fall apart, am I right?

Secondly, golf requires patience, and we all know that’s a dying art in this fast-paced world. Who has the time to wait for their turn to putt when they could be scrolling through TikTok and watching videos of people falling off treadmills? Clearly, golf is just not meant for the modern world.

Now, let’s talk about technique. Who needs proper form and a good grip when you can just swing that club like a baseball bat? I mean, it’s not like there’s any difference between the two sports, right? Oh wait, there is. But who cares about that when you can look cool while completely missing the ball?

And let’s not forget about the mental aspect of the game. Golf is a sport that requires focus and the ability to block out distractions, like your annoying golf buddies who insist on giving you unsolicited advice. But why bother with that when you can just let your mind wander and think about what you’re going to eat for dinner? Priorities, people.

In conclusion, people suck at golf because they just don’t have the time, patience, or mental fortitude to truly excel at the game. But hey, who needs to be good at golf when you can be a pro at procrastination and watching reality TV? Keep on sucking, my fellow golfers. It’s what makes this sport so endearingly frustrating.

One thought on “Why People Suck At Golf

  1. Started playing the game in 1956. Got my handicap down to 7 while in Hawai’i at Navy/Marine course. Leilehua always kicked my ass, but I had a sub-par round at Kalakaua and a coupla even-par ones at Navy/Marine. Kaneohe is a beautiful layout, but I never did well there.

    By the time I hit my 40s, I finally realized that if I didn’t consider the ball an existential threat and try to murdify it with my driver, my scores pretty much stayed below 80. Never did develop a decent putting game.

    And while playing a coupla times a week here in Pensacola after I retired, I found that the secret to successful golf is 6 simple factors:

    Slow takeaway

    Smooth swing

    HIgh finish

    and Practice, practice, practice.

    Wealth is good, too . . . golf ain’t cheap.
