Why is golf the only sport where...
it is great to be sub-par and you can actually say, "I am going to take out my wood now" and no one bats an eye at you?

Are there other sports with such quirks? One can only wonder on a boring Friday afternoon!

1. ...and you can wash your balls 18 times.
Every guy I play golf with (and myself as well) turns into Beavis and Butthead when they see a ball-washer.

"Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh 'ball washer' huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh etc."

3. Golf doesn't pass my sport test
If you can smoke while doing it,it's not a sport it's a hobby.
