Dear Abby,
I’ve never written to you before, but I really need your advice. I have suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me. The usual signs. Phone rings but if I answer, the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with “the girls” a lot recently although when I ask their names she always says, “Just some friends from work, you don’t know them.”
I always try to stay awake to look out for her coming home, but I usually fall asleep. Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my wife. I think deep down I just didn’t want to know the truth, but last night she went out again and I decided to really check on her. Around midnight, I decided to hide in the garage behind my golf clubs so I could get a good view of the whole street when she arrived home from a night out with “the girls”.
It was at that moment, crouching behind my clubs, that I noticed that the graphite shaft on my driver appeared to have a hairline crack right by the club head. Is this something I can fix myself or should I take it back to the pro shop where I bought it?
Signed,
Perplexed

The Unwritten Rules of Golf

  • No matter how bad you are playing, it is always possible to play worse
  • Never keep more than 300 separate thoughts in your mind during your swing.
  • When you look up and cause an awful shot, you will always look down again at exactly the moment when you ought to start watching the ball if you ever want to see it again.
  • When your shot has to carry over a water hazard, you can either hit one more club or two more balls.
  • The game of golf is 90% mental and 10% mental.
  • If you want to get better at golf, go back and take it up at a much earlier age.
  • Since bad shots come in groups of three, a fourth bad shot is actually the beginning of the next group of three.
  • Any change works for a maximum of three holes and a minimum of not at all.

If, even for a moment, you ever doubt that golf is blessed, that serendipity watches over its history, consider two of the witnesses to the most celebrated shot ever struck.
It’s 1935, during the final round of the second Masters, and a few years before the tournament even officially had that name. Gene Sarazen, trailing Craig Wood by 3 strokes with but 4 holes to go, smoked his 4-wood second shot over the pond fronting the par-5 15th hole. Not content to be a potential eagle, the ball pitched forward and rolled directly into the cup for a 2, a double-eagle, an albatross. Almost seventy years later, it’s still the most famous shot in golf history.
And who witnessed the shot heard round the world? Bobby Jones, the game’s patron saint, and Walter Hagen, the embodiment of sporting style.

One lovely morning, Ben and Thomas were out golfing. Ben slices his ball deep into a wooded ravine. He grabs his 8-iron and proceeds down the embankment into the ravine in search of his ball.
Ben searches diligently throught the thick underbrush and suddenly he spots something shiny. As he gets closer, he realizes that the shiny object is in fact an 8-iron in the hands of a skeleton lying near an old golf ball.
Ben excitedly calls out to his golfing partner: “Hey Thomas, come here, I got big trouble down here.”
Thomas comes running over to the edge of the ravine and calls out: “What’s the matter Ben?”
Ben shouts back in a nervous voice:”Throw me my 7-iron! Looks like you can’t get out of here with an 8-iron.”
