golfers and strip clubs.

The Masters will be held in Augusta Ga April 7-13. During this week you will not be able to get a hotel room within 100 miles of Augusta. The dancers in my favorite club, 70 miles away are looking fore ward to it. This is Christmas for strippers. These dudes come into town with big bucks in their pockets. They have gotten away from their SO's and are ready for some action. But they are so ignorant that they will pay top bucks for low mileage dancers and think that they got a great deal. Stay away from my favorite club during this week.
In Myrtle Beach SC things are even worse. As soon as Springs hits the golfers are there by the hundreds and so are the out of area strippers. This includes dancers from my favorite club. And of course prices go up. This usually ends by summer when the temp and humidity get out of site. Fucking Golf Nuts.

I do enjoy golf (sorry guys) but havent experienced golfers at work yet although on the corse they get annoying too.
Other golfers are extremely serious about the sport and if you happen to even hit a golf ball up towards them and yell "fore" at the same time, you may hear the nastiest cussing you've heard in a while. Most people seem friendly though.
I am not offended in the least by statements about golf nuts...probably because most of what is said is true...we are all nuts...hehehe
I must agree with you about hunters and strip clubs. My favorite club used to have a Budweiser sign which featured hunting in the club. (For all I know, it still does, but its not on the main floor.) Some girls who are invariably new have to ask me if I'm there for hunting season. I have no idea what is hunting season for anything. I'm not the right person in my family to tell you that. I do know up in some of the rural clubs I've visited that girls come and go as the hunting season comes and goes, so you know there is demand for strippers then.
It has everything, and every little thing backwards.
This is a true story:
RIVERSIDE -- Two managers of a Norco golf course who allowed prostitutes to set up tents and provide sexual favors to golfers participating in a tournament pleaded guilty to conspiracy charges. Jason Wood, 38, and Darren Bollinger, 30, both of Temecula, were arrested after Riverside County sheriff's deputies raided a June 2002 tournament at Hidden Valley Golf Club, where the two men and an accomplice allowed the prostitutes to set up tents on the course. - The two agreed to plead guilty to conspiracy to corrupt the public morals after a third defendant, Sandy Juarez of Lancaster, struck a deal with prosecutors to testify against them. The judge in the case urged Wood and Bollinger to reach a plea agreement. Defense attorney Steve Harmon declined to comment.
Riverside District Attorney Art Chang said prosecutors didn't pursue more severe prostitution charges against the men because they had not provided the prostitutes.
"It's our belief that they were aiders and abettors," Chang said. Prosecutors contend that the prostitutes were provided by Juarez, who pleaded guilty to the same charges as Wood and Bollinger in exchange for her testimony. She was sentenced to 120 days in jail and fined $10,000. Wood and Bollinger are to be sentenced in October. Chang said they probably will receive probation and a fine.
That is my take on the game...
Plus, hitting a great shot is an awesome feeling...
I agree with FONDL about the "addictive" thing, and the "guy" thing. I utterly disagree with Crizgolfer, though. I can see how those skills CAN be used for golf, and they would indeed be useful in life. But golf might, to the contrary, teach you that cheating works better than playing by the rules, or that talking about exercising is more important than actually doing the exercising, or that you should expect the opportunity to do the same thing at least 18 times and that a combined relatively successful effort on nearly all of them will outweigh a totally inept idiot's level effort on one or another. Those lessons are just as likely in golf, and yet rather unfamiliar in real life.
Golf doesn't have the corner on the market of "valuable life lessons from sport and hobby." The fact that almost any sport has just as much "ethical" training potential, means that claiming that golf too has that potential, is an utterly moot point. If any given sport could make you ethical, then why is golf a more important sport? ]
I say to hell with golf, it's for lame idiots. If you want exercise do something that requires exercise. If you want a hobby do something that requires intellect. (Wait, adding and subtracting from the par sheet! Oh yeah, basic arithmetic! Golf DOES require thought!) It's a blast when you're with a rather large group of extremely drunk friends from the old days (though I do realize that mostly this sort of behavior is frowned upon at any decent course), but that's because of the group and drunk and friends and old days parts. Consequently, again, the golf part is moot.
Well, I don't really mean all that. I don't begrudge anyone their fun. I just find it hard to take golf AS seriously as a lot of other participant sports that have a much higher degree of all the things I think people should look for in a sport. If they're doing golf to the exclusion of aerobic activity, or think their 115 score on nine holes is impressive because it improves on last week's 120, they're misled and just part of the bandwagon. If they do it seriously, or get good exercise at it (as did my great-uncle Frank, for whom golf no doubt added 10 years to his life -- still shooting his age, minus 10, into his 90s!) then I'm all for it, as I would be positive about anything that has legitimate positive content.
The part about golf that bugs me is the people who DON'T perform the positives, but CLAIM they do because they know that a lot of other people on the bandwagon will leap to their defense. Like those bloated fat overweight idiots in the swimming pool who float from one side to the other by pushing off and drifting, and then claim to be "doing laps." Har ... no, don't congratulate yourself.
In fact, I am kind of tempted to learn a bit of golf in order to play the "harder" courses. I hear St. Andrews is no walk in the park. That I've gotta respect. And of course, hitting the ball accurately is a ridiculously difficult skill so, if you dedicate yourself to it, there comes a level where only further higher levels of dedication will yield any rewards. That can be said of any sport, and a lot of other endeavors -- there's an economy of scale, and at a certain point only the EXTREMELY hardy few survive. So, golf doesn't get MORE points than most sports; but it gets almost as many, in my book.
I'm just havin' fun with ya. Golf seems so silly. But evidently people make deals over the golf course. Maybe I'll need to learn it ...
Try playing golf in the snow, with a wet ground, and a wind chill in the teens...we went numb after the first 2 holes, but I guess the price that we paid for the round of golf in October & the gas carts was worth it to my buddies at the time (it wasn't to me, but I got out voted). It took me 45 mins. to "defrost" afterwards... How about strippers or Hooters girls on the golf course?
And mistergy when I swing my breasts are squished together fighting to free themselves from the confines of my tight polyester top. Question answered? LOL
For those not familiar with golf, do not stand anywhere on the front side of amateur golfers. I've seen several people get hit and those golf balls are traveling over 200 mph at times and hit extremely hard. Imagine a paint ball gun on steroids.
One other thing, if you park your car sideways right behind the 18th hole, expect to get a lot of dings in the side. I saw someone who did this one time. I was wondering if it had all those dings before he or she parked it there.
I remember one strip club with lots of hot dancers near Pinehurst NC that filled up with golfers at certain times of the year. That was fun just to watch all that eye candy and let the golfers pay for all the close up table dances. I really did enjoy watching several 10's doing table dances at the same time especially since I didn't have to pay for all of that. They were nothing but air dances there but still worth watching.
The yelling "Fore" thing is so that people can duck if the ball is going to come near them. That saved me from getting hit in the head once...I got hit in the back instead. Don't be a pussy...own up to it when you accidentally hit near someone!
I can attest that golf has been a great thing for me and my son to share. He started golfing when he was 9, and got better than me in a few years, then went on to play varsity in high school. We played once or twice a week at the local muni course ($20 for me, $12 for him), and he played in various ragtag groups of boys throughout the summer. It was cheaper than summer camp, and a great way for him to stay out of trouble. He learned how to play by the rules, how to focus on a difficult problem, how to control his temper, how to prepare for a big day, how to show common courtesy, and how to socialize with strangers. He's in college now. Of all the joys of parenting, playing with him is what I miss the most. It will be a bond for the rest of my life.
Yeah, it's a silly game. But at the end of the day, when the sun is low and the shadows are lengthening, and the cooler smells are rising from the grass, what better feeling is there than walking down the fairway and sharing a memory with your son?
It beats the best lap dance, hands down (or hands on). :-)
As for hobbies and exercise. Well, as a youth I played football and basketball. I excelled at baseball and kickboxing. Of all those sports (and a few others that I dabbled in) I have found golf to be the most difficult to "master." That is my experience.
I currently bicycle, run, play raquetball, and lift weights (6 times per week when my travel schedule allows me). I do not rent golf carts (as I carry my clubs) with the exception of two courses where the holes are far apart. It is not that I can't (or don't want to) walk it. Just that walking it will slow the pace of play too much and cause problems on the course. I never drink when I play as I do make a valid attempt to improve.
Intellectually, I read a great deal. History, philosophy, and Zen have been often persused topics. Now days most of my reading pertains to work related things involving networks, SANs, and servers...so I get plenty of intellectual stimulation.
I can understand others distaste for golf, because I thought the same thing...until I started playing it about 7 years ago. For me...It has been an exceptional way to bond with my son as we spend many hours trolling around golf courses. Enjoying each others company, goofing around, and talking about life in general.
Aaaaahhh...the only thing I like more than golf...is golf chicks...soooo Wondergirl...what's your handicap? ;-)
