    Lol -

    Lads this is not the 70s - you do know that we are all equal now in the 2010 s

    I didn't know the boards golf society / boards golf forum was the last bastion of misogyny.

    :D

    I love womens.

    If I want to play golf, I'll play golf and tell her I see her later.

    If she wants to do something, off with her....... and she can bring the kids with her if I'm out golfing :D

    I read somewhere before that the reasons why golf and marriage are incompatible are they have two different priorities. The most important thing in a marriage is the long game and the most important thing in golf is the short game.

    My PM box is currently empty, surprising to say the least. Don't be shy lads, I won't pass on anyone's names ha ha hs

    Sometimes the wife is a convenient excuse to not going out to play golf ;)

    Easiest answer is to get your other half playing the beloved game as well

    I've only ever seen one couple out at it on the golf course and to be honest I didn't see any golf bags in the vicinity either.

    Guess that could be called a shag bag

    I heard an awful cringeworthy ad on the radio for Glen of the downs golf club today, think it was on Nova

    All coupley crap joining with their wives and husbands.......

    I know of a few couples that play together. They are painful to watch. One lad constantly says great shot to his wife and he may not even be watching her hit and would ask her then where she ended up. Another couple are always arguing on the course. "Hurry up" he always says." If you want to rush around then play with someone else" is usually her response. Next day they are out again together.
    How can people play like this is beyond me. Thankfully my wife knows i am usually gone for 5/6 hours when i play and have a drink after.

    I didn't mean that she had to play with you, she probably does exist in her own right outside of your glow.

    My point was simply that golf works much better in a couple if they both play

    In both couples i referred to i forgot to mention the ladies have significant lower handicaps than the men.
    Oh and i bask in my wife's glow.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,185 ✭✭✭✭FixdePitchmark


    Sad.

    As Charlie said. Golf wife balance.

    But happy wife happy life.

    I don't play at weekends.

    Turned the house upside down there 12 times - checked the cars - 2 houses - rang a restaurant - 2 golf courses. Checked 4 carry bags - golf bag 2 times, cars again.

    Found wallet eventually - I knew it was there , it had to be.

    Not in the good books, out all day - she had to buy everything , lunch and all.

    Golf bags are amazing yolks - of course it was in the ......................
