Drabble by Kevin Fagan for June 27, 2020

I remember when I shot an 81. It was on a 9-hole course.

Norman jinxed Ralph. Figures.

Hey, he broke 100!

Nice going, Norm!

Golf is a nice walk spoiled by a stick and a ball

that is me after 9 holes

Mini-golf can be so unforgiving.

I’m a typical duffer. I look brilliant on one hole, pathetic on the next, generally averaging about 90. Last fall I played at a fairly difficult local course, aptly named The Ledges. I, too, had an 89 going into the 18th hole, but thanks to a pond, a stone wall, and a tree, I wound up with a score of 103. I feel your pain, Ralph.

Playing golf is a waste of time…unless you are trying to impress someone in a “supervisory” position within your company/business…

I usually shot in the 70’s.. if it gets any colder, I don’t go out at all!

I did that once. Shooting in an archery tournament, my son walked up and said “Mom, it’s the last end and you are leading.” I put the next arrow completely off the target.

Am I the only one who read that panel as “8950”?

It’s a mind game common to all sports. Baseball announcers should never mention that the pitcher is one out away from a perfect game, for that will surely engender a base hit. A hockey goalie does his utmost to NOT think of the impending shutout.

We thought it was going to be below 100, since this is golf.

Golf must be fun. But it sure is boring to hear about.

Seems like he scored my round. Wait, my strokes would be much higher….
