When you hear a staid plaid purist complaining about the "bad elements" in the game; they are usually referring to me, or people like me. I'm the guy who holds up the entire course while giving his partners noogies and high fives. I use pull tabs for ball markers. I lug around about three clubs, one for far, one for medium, one for. short. Sometimes I'll carry a fourth club but that's only when I'm feeling extravagant, I never : really use it. My only advanced technique, is trying to figure how many beverages I can fit into my golf bag. I never thought about the hackles I was raising until I inquired about attaching golf spikes to my Doc Martens. Holy mackerel, you'd have thought I was diseased! Since that episode I have become increasingly aware of my effect on purists. To them I seem like some kind of unwashed Hun coming to pillage their clubhouse and abuse their caddies. Don't get the wrong idea, I really love golf, but not in the traditional, statistical sort of way. In fact I don't remember the last time I kept score. Golf to me is a great way to get out with the buds, have some suds, and slash at abed of buds. I think that my late introduction to golf is to blame for my lackadaisical approach. I always viewed golf as a wuss game, then I played, and it's still a wuss game, but fun. To put it bluntly, I enjoy going into some well groomed park and thrashing the place. If purists don't like seeing me knee-deep in divots, chomping on a cigar, and cursing a blue streak then they can go home. I never comment on their attire do 17 I suppose you could call me a grunge golfer. This approach is buckets o' fun but it'll never get me on the PGA tour. If you think about it though, how many of your golfing friends are on the PGA tour? My philosophy is Bash The Ball, and have a good time-Damn the torpedoes. There are two State Park golf courses open at this writing, a third is tentatively slated for April 9. Jordan River Park is open, and Palisade Park as well, It's never too early for grunge golf. So you get a little mud on your clothes-big whoop. i ivi i ujrwi 1 1 mas. ANTIQUES MALL OVER 12,000 SQ. FT.
