Like some, I once golfed at least 4 times a week. I haven't played a round in probably 10 years.

Golf is the only "sport" that I've put time, effort, and money into and I didn't get better. I've sold my clubs to give up and ended up buying all new ones 3 times now.[&:]

My golf game sucked. Never once broke 100. Came close a few times... got into the upper 90's quite a bit, but never once went over. I'd played PuttPutt ever since I was a little kid so when I got on the green it was all over. It was getting on the green where my adventures were. Fortunately I always played at the community golf course where the grass was so burnt up and the ground so hard that a wormburner drive would still go 250 yards.

But then I was young and didn't know what I was doing. If I'd known anything about golf, I'd probably never hit under 150 and I could've really sucked at it. Anyway, considering the last round of golf I played was 36 years ago... I'd have to say my shooting.

I had my handicap as low as 6. I picked up a bow and archery hungting 2 years ago, I have picked my clubs up once since thenand I have no idea when in will pick them up again. It is not just the shooting as much as the prepping for hunting for me, I just don't think of golf anymore.

HAHA! Oh good Lord I was thinking about this today on the golf course!

I'm a WAY better shot with a bow than I am with a golf club.... I think today was the 20th time or so I've ever played (been playing about 3 years off and on).... its to the point where one shot in 12 is a good one and the other 11 produce a colorful web of obscenties that hang in the air as thick around Richmond as the smoke from North Carolina.

In my opinion, golf and archery have their simliarities.... I'd say that shooting a traditional bow is more similar, but even at that its more like putting than trying to hit the green from 175 out. Golf is easily ten times more difficult and probably more frustrating, but fortunately I think far less addictive (if you are a hunter anyway).

Well, I am new to shooting a bow but not to golf, so I will say my golf game is better. I do however think that shooting a bow is easier than hitting a golf ball. When shooting a bow you are trying to do the same thing every single time to stay consistent. With golf on the other hand you have tons of different shots(drives, pitches, chips, full swings, fairway woods, out of the rough) that it is hard to produce the same results over and over.

Depends on the season and there are only 2:

Golf Season
Hunting Season

I can hold my own with either group without embarressment,but will never be in the top 10% of either group, due to family and life time constraints, and I'm fine with that!

This is how I write my name on the score card:


Andy (+)


Then in the scoring box I write how many shots over par it took me to get close enough to pick it up or say the hell with it.... so when I come back to the club house with a bunch of 3s 4 s and 5s on my card everyone thinks I'm an Ace. Sometimes though I have to write a "B" in because it means the beer cart girl came around and I picked up to have an adult beverage before she moved on.

The first four holes of the round dictate what kinda day its going to be... a golf day or a drinking day.
