JUST FOR LAUGHS:
"LOFT"
Three bad golfers were teeing off when they saw a pro walk by.
One guy yelled out, "Hey, pro, you want to join us?"
The pro figured he didn't have anything else to do, so he got his clubs and joined them. The first guy walked up to the tee box and hit. The ball landed on another fairway.
The guy turns around and asks the pro, "What did I do wrong?"
The pro looks at him and says "LOFT." The guy pretends to understand this and put his club back in his bag.
The next guy walks up to the tee box and hits. The ball slices into the parking lot. The guy asks what he did wrong.
The pro again says "LOFT."
The last guy walks up and hits. The ball goes five feet off the tee box. The pro says "LOFT."
The first guy walks up to the pro and asks, "What does LOFT mean if everybody sucks?
The pro says, "You all suffer from Lack Of Freakin Talent."
"8 IRON"
Off the seventh tee, Brian sliced his shot deep into a wooded ravine. He took his eight iron and clambered down the embankment in search of his lost ball. After many long minutes of hacking at the underbrush, he spotted something glistening in the leaves. As he drew nearer, he discovered that it was an eight iron in hands of a skeleton! Joe immediately called out to his friend, "Jack, I've got trouble down here!" "What's the matter?" Jack asked from the edge of the ravine. "Bring me my wedge," Brian shouted. "You can't get out of here with an eight iron!"
"RIDERS"
A foursome of pretty ladies came back after a round of golf. At the 19th hole in the Clubhouse, the Pro asked them "How did your game go?" The first said she had a good round with 25 riders. The second said she did OK with 16 riders. The third said not too bad since I had 10 riders. The fourth was disappointed and said that she played badly with only two riders.
The Pro was confounded by this term "rider" but not wanting to show his ignorance just smiled and wish them better golf the next time. He then approached Jerry the bartender and asked "Jerry, can you tell me what does this term 'riders' mean?" Jerry smiled and explained that a "rider" is when you have hit a shot long enough to take a ride on a golf cart.

STROKE SAVING RULES:
Broken Club:
A player who breaks a club during the normal course of play, may replace that club during the round.
Animal Relief:
Rule 25 - A player may take relief from a burrowing animal hole or runway from such animal including birds and reptiles.
On Is In:
If a ball is on the hazard line, it is in the hazard. If a ball is on the out of bounds line, it is in bounds.
When taking free relief, you are always entitled to one club length. When taking relief with penalty, you are always entitled to two club lengths.
Move It!:
Rule 20 - A player may take warranted relief (casual water, ground under repair, cart path, etc)even if this means the relief would also provide the player relief from another obstacle (such as a tree).
Rule 25 - In regards to ground under repair, a player can get relief even if not marked. For example a hole made by a greens keeper or material piled for removal.
Hazard Help:
Rule 15 Striking the wrong ball from within a hazard is not a penalty. This is because you are not entitled to touch your ball when identifying it inside a hazard.
Rule 13-4 - A player may ground his club on a bridge in the hazard- the bridge is considered an obstruction and not "ground in a hazard".
Rule 24 - Water hazard stakes are considered obstructions and provided they are readily moveable. They may be removed.
Have a Ball:
Rule 25-2 - If your ball is embedded through the green (i.e. fairway or rough excluding hazards) you may lift, clean, and re-drop your ball no closer to the hole without penalty.
Rule 5-1 - A player may borrow a golf ball from his/her opponent or fellow competitor as long as it does not delay play.
Playing a second ball
Rule 20-7 - A player may play a second ball at any time they are in doubt as to the rules, i.e. When procedure for relief is in doubt, the player may take relief with one ball and play the other as it lies. The ruling can be given at a later time.

TIGER WOODS' PRESS CONFERENCE: Our take...he did what he had to do and should have done earlier. He's paying for his transgressions in spades at this point and we think it's time to move on. (fan wise) Face it, without Tiger the game is not the same and we're hurting ourselves by not "forgiving" him and getting back to watching one of the greatest golfers of all time. So as tough as we've been on him, we accept his "apology" and that should be that. The details are his own business in our minds. We really don't even care to hear them. Let's just get back to golf now!
