    i always felt it was escape for guys who didn't like spending time w their wives and families so it never appealed to me either
    my father picked it up later in life and got really into it so i went 3 or 4 times but was just bored
    he was really into his form and was pretty dedicated
    remember him getting mom into it and i think they had some pretty good years trying different courses and made some decent albeit strange friends
    the attorney always wants me to play but i'd rather sit at the beach and stare at waves

    I don't mind going out once or twice a year to remind myself how truly bad I am at the sport, but one thing I'll never understand is how someone could sit in front of the TV for hours and watch a tournament. I can barely find time to catch half a baseball or football game on TV... I'm certainly not going to waste half a day watching dudes in preppy clothes agonize over how to approach hitting a ball down a long lawn to the anything-but-exhilarating ovation of golf claps.

    THIS ^^^ times ten....

    I've played maybe 40 rounds of golf in my life, and I've never broken 100. It's a great game but Mark Twain said it best: " Golf is a good walk spoiled."

    As for watching golf, maybe the last few holes on Sunday at the Masters or British Open, if it's close. Otherwise ... I prefer to binge watch Barney Miller repeats. Still a bitchen show.
