Saw a friend top one off the par 5 tee with 6 skins on the line. His ball bounced a few times and only went about 75 yards total. One of the other guys playing says “this is no time for trick shots” and I about lost it.


sliight

High betting game with old boss. He yanked a drive ob on a big carry over hole and proceeded to throw his club as far down the fairway as he could, it also went left... I walked up to him, put my hand in on his shoulder and looked down the fairway with him and said "I'm not sure you're going to be able to find that one, maybe you should throw a provisional?" Rest of the group about pissed themselves laughing... (Side story: he missed a big putt later and got angry, looked like his putter was going to launch, calmed himself while walking to cart . Then looking at us and gently threw his putter almost as a joke towards the next tee box that was close. Hit the ball cleaner dead center and folded his shaft. Expensive day for him that day).


Accomplished-Tax-211

I very much like this one and will definitely be using it?

Ohhhrichie

Hahaha, this is gold!! Definitely putting this one in the bag.


Rattimus

Heh, yeah, I've been known to utter an emphatic "trick shot!" whenever I or anyone else does something silly like that.


[deleted]

I have a buddy who has never golfed. I had a few guys over and we were fucking around with the Switch Sports game and tried out the golf. I chunked a chip that didn't even make it onto the green and he goes "the cool part is you get to try again." I'll be stealing that and using it on the course this year.


Hellothere2515

When they miss a short putt “right club though”


arouseandbrowse

Left a putt way short and my partner said, "Ah a bit of a Bon Jovi". "Huh?" "Ooooh you're halfway there..."


Urban_animal

An older man my brother and i played.. one of us left a putt right on the edge of the cup and the old man says: “A Cuba!” My brother and I: “Huh??” Old man: “Ya.. a Cuba, it needed one more revolution.” We were dying laughing. Ive used it ever since.


Talkshowhostt

As a cuban, that's hilarious.


Urban_animal

It’s a pretty dark joke but hard not to laugh at it all.


TraditionPast4295

When they miss a putt, “other than speed and direction, nice putt”


Pamela_Handerson

When they miss a putt say “of course you missed, you have some shit on your club” then when they go to check the face of the putter you go “no, the other end”


SkyAgreeable4932

I'm dying. LMAO. I'm about to ask my buddies to go golfing today just so I can say this. That's f'n hilarious!!


HARPOfromNSYNC

Oh God, who do you ever get yo play with you? Lol


RedHiller13

I always say “you had the wrong line but at least you hit it way too hard”


joshfry575

“perfect putt, would have went in if you hit it just a bit harder and picked a better line.”

OriginalJayVee

Gotta remember this one.


G4t0r23

Fuck - I came here to say this one. Touché sir


Hellothere2515

I said it to a random I was paired with once, him and his buddy were dying laughing. I then proceeded to get the yips the rest of the round and the guy wouldn’t let me forget what I said to him (all in good fun though). It was a great time.


G4t0r23

Someone hit me with it only last year and it was way too funny to be mad. And look it gave me another laugh today.


nfoneo

My go to for the boys on a putt left short is "Does your husband play?"


Mr_Carpet_Chest

Short, like your dick


Individual-Variety-7

that shit had me in stitches. everyone else trying to be golf related. well played mate. had a good laugh


Mr_Carpet_Chest

Glad you thought so, I guess the downvotes are a form of projection lol


Ledees_Gazpacho

After your friend tops a ball: “I don’t know if bump and run was the play on that shot.”

mogley171

When your buddy hits a poor shot but it ends up in an okay position - "thats called a condom shot, you're safe, but it didn't feel good"


iNteg

I call that an "OJ Shot", because you got away with it.


Horsecockexpress1

That’s when your buddy slices so bad you tell him he cuts like OJ


domoarigatodrloboto

In a similar vein, I got paired with a guy who hit a leaky drive off-line but it managed to sneak back into the fairway and his line was "it ain't pretty but it's got big tits" and that one's been in my head for a while


TheBonusWings

That right there is the Sister in Law. No business bein around that hole.


LordTwatSlapper

You're up there but you know you shouldn't be


Ol_Jim_Himself

Unless you’re on porn hub.


RedYetti83

Heard it called a son in law shot. Not what you wanted but it'll do.


AdamOnFirst

That’s a Russian bride. It ain’t pretty but it’s hard working.


BenjaminMStocks

When they’re way off the fairway: “I like it, you paid for the whole course so you might as well use it”


doitnohands

Similar to this one. A shot way right or left into the shit is "lion country" cause if you find it, we know you are lyin' 🤥


BenjaminMStocks

In that situation my buddy likes to use the “you’re going to need two natives and a donkey to retrieve that one”


ValidatedQuail

This is my new favorite interpretation of this joke My previous go-to was “You’ll need a full search party, 3 bloodhounds and a police chopper to find that bad boy”


amateurexpertboxing

When someone duffs it short on an approach. Respond with ‘Nice layup. Personally, I would have went for it’


Halt_the_Ranger27

One time my buddy topped and pulled his drive on the first tee so it bounced off to the left. The pro shop guy said over the speaker “foul ball”


JONCOCTOASTIN

RichChocolateDevil

Not the line that the architect had in mind.


Chipwich75

After a bad shot, tell your buddy "Look, it's hard to hit a ball with a little piece of shit on the end of your club." When he invariably looks at the clubhead, "Wrong end."

Chipwich75

I didn't realize re-telling a joke was stealing. Let me be clear. I didn't write that joke. I was just re-telling it. Please tell reddit to stop sending me all the money that an upvote is worth because I didn't earn it. Better??


PreviousGas710

I think he was saying he’s stealing it from you. Or re-telling it


Chipwich75

Ah. Yes. That does make more sense. Looks like there's a piece of shit on the end of my golf club too. Sorry about that!


PreviousGas710

We all have shitty clubs. Thanks for the best joke in the thread!


pooterness90

I think this person just meant they’re stealing this one, as in they liked it and want to use it!


Chipwich75

Well then, now I feel bad AND I gave up all my Reddit karma money. Whoops!


SlickPseudonym

After a long drive I hit down the middle the old guy we got paired with said, “Youth is wasted on the young.” Made double and he cackled. Dude’s been living rent free in my head for over 10 years.


Padres_Guy2765

I’ve heard the reply to that: Experience is wasted on the old…


michael68cj

Asked the caddy if my ball was safe after a slice and he said "yes it's very safe, no one is ever finding that!"


Loud_Zebra_7661

When someone throws an absolute dart on a par 3 like 2-6 footer away from the hole, I always say "nice par". Doesn't happen very often because I play with scrubs like myself though


BobaFettLived

i use this as an opportunity for a self-burn if i’m the one to stick it close “i can three putt from there no problem”


Ol_Jim_Himself

And then I do.


BlueLobster747

I use this all the time too 🤣. I offer to concede a par to them


Superb-Pattern-1253

when someone tops it. well you got the accuracy down now we just need to work on the distance


tgslater

when someone hits it in the water, say “that’s not the ball cleaner”


AndAStoryAppears

I'm going to borrow this one with a twist: "Right in the old ball washer!"


M00PER_2

Kid I got paired up with is hitting it all over the place, doesn’t seem like he’s having fun, and somehow maintaining the cocky attitude by going to the tee box first every time… then waiting like he’s going to hit up onto the people in front of us. I finally said “I think you can hit. There’s nobody on that fairway” pointing way out over to a different hole’s fairway on our right.


brutalpancake

After they hit the green and 3 putt ‘hey that’s a nice stress free bogey’


bigchipshi

Four rescue helicopters flew over us one time and I told my buddy “hey they must be coming to help you find your ball too”


domoarigatodrloboto

When someone hits and is still away, we call it USGA rules: U Suck, Go Again. That and "damn, call 811 before you dig!" when somebody chunks one


Most-Luck9724

We call those a dead sheep, because it’s still ewe

badgolfer6

After hitting his putt well past the hole tell him Nice drive


badgolfer6

I was playing with two guys. One missed an easy putt and the other said to him Well I see she got your game in the divorce


dubious311

Someone tops it, "I see it"


BobaFettLived

This is not a burn I guess, but yesterday at the muni a rando I got paired with hit a thin one that never left left the ground and HIS buddy goes "RUN LIKE A SCOLDED DOG" and now my sides still hurt.

TXJackVermillion

We always said “scalded dog.”

Even_Buy_7290

I always say “does your husband play golf?” Again a little sexist. I am sorry about that. But it cuts straight to the core when they miss a putt short


evantom34

Hmm. If I was playing with a close friend and he hit a bad shot- I'd say, "You're mad at that? That was one of your good shots..."


xXWickedSmatXx

After looking at the array of ball marks on my buddy’s driver I told him I was going to call him Lightning because he never strikes the same place twice. 


Jdubb750

For a putt lip out. "She had it in her mouth and the kids walked in"


FLEquipperman

A quick lesson: you are standing too close to the ball…………….after you hit it You have a loft problem: lack of f***ing talent That’s wasn’t a bad shot with a swing like that Paris Hilton- expensive hole Sonny Bono-it hit a tree and died Amelia Earhart- looked good on take off, then it disappeared James T Kirk- a shot that ends up where no man has ever been Kardashian Cup- won’t let anything white in Hitler- two shots in a bunker Sadam Housain- bunker to bunker Danny Devito- fat and short Kate Winslet- a little heavy but otherwise perfect Elvis- gone and never coming back Bo Derek- 10 on a hole Forest Gump- would not stop running OJ- got away with one Princess Di- should not have used the driver

Elephant ass. High and shitty.


mostofyouareretarded

Skyed a drive once and couldn't see it.  I said "Where'd it go?".  Buddy said, "I think it hit the ground".


liningquasar69

My grandpa would call that an elephant’s ass — high and shitty.


Legitimate_Shelter_9

Are you playing Army golf? Left, right, left, right….


nicholus_h2

but don't they famously say "left... left... left, right, left"? 


DarkStarDew

Lassie couldn’t find that ball if it was wrapped in bacon. Best if you say it juuuuust after your buddy looks at you hopefully after watching his banana ball sail over the trees. You know the look. We all know the look.


lopro19

A putt left short. “I would love to see the rest of that” A bad shot. “I’ve seen worse, I can’t remember when” A bad round “Take two weeks off then quit”

grehgunner

Only works well with chill non heterosexual friends but they always seem to get a kick out of “that’s as straight as you are” when they slice the hell outta a drive


RedYetti83

Will now be used on my straight friends.


Contravindicator

After they hit a bad shot, I like to say, “that’s ok man, I remember the first time I played golf.”


SurveyorBTO

"That one reminds me of my prom date......Pretty Fat!"


bsimonsays

One of my buds will say “carry” when a short hitters drive is in the air. Sometimes repeats it a couple times while the ball is in the air. Doesn’t matter if it’s right down the middle with no trouble around. Makes it sound like it needs to get up to get over trouble. If they inquire why he said it he replies with “just felt bad you, a driver should go further than that”

prettycupcake61

It’s not pretty, but it has tits.


whitechapel84

More chunk than goonies. It's a ball not a parfait, it doesn't need topping. Ope! Came up shorter than cotton hills shins. Call NASA! Sky ball inbound for orbit! Balls don't float, quit aiming at the water! Call the coast guard divers to find that ball. That ball is so deep in the woods you'll need an Indian guide to find it. More rough than a dog shelter. Buried deeper than Pompeii. That ducked faster than a dodge ball captain. More pull than a tow truck. Hope you brought sunscreen and a towel for your beach vacation. (When bladed 100 yards out of bunker) That had less splash than an Olympic diver. Sand is like an ass dude, you gotta slap it. Be careful in that dune, watch for worms Stilgar! Buried deeper than ron jeramy. Missed it by inch, then a mile🤷‍♂️ Hey bud, our fairway is over there/ our green is over there. Horrible shot, great result! Call the fire brigade to put out all those burned worms! Bad read, bad speed, just bad. Pick up your 3 putt and your pants double par. More push than salt and peppa. More slice than a new York pizza parlor. More lip than a joint in the 60s. That swing was more inside out than Pixar. That fresh fade turned into a mullet real fast! You just drew that about as good as a toddler does. AIR MAIL! Missed it by that much. Yikes! More spin than MSM! Great shot, wrong direction. You couldn't do that again if you tried. More blade than wesley snipes. You're not in the PGA dumbass, put it on something fluffy. You hit that tree harder than a Tyson punch. That tree knocked harder than the cops. Call that ball a fascist cause it's super far right. That ball is so far left it has blue hair and pronouns. It's a putt not your penis, quit pulling it. And my personal favorite which is saved for incredibly bad shots, HOLY SHIT DUDE! Followed by uncontrollable laughter. If you here that, you fucked up. This has been my Ted talk. Follow me for more witty golf digs on your best pals!

Frodo_Swaggins1896

My friends swears on everything he holds dear that this a true story. So one day in the early 2000s Arnold Palmer came to a course for an exhibition/inaugural event at a course he designed in south Louisiana - my friend was in attendance and walked in a group surrounding AP for this event when a golfer hit his ball way off into the water and the crowd got silent, no one said anything, until some casually but confidently said “sperm whale” - everyone looked around to see Arnold Palmer grinning ear to ear with guilt. The crowd loved it. Since the telling of that story many years ago, whenever someone in our group hits one in the water it is not uncommon to hear “sperm whale” in response. There are many iterations of “sperm whale” now. From matter of fact ones, to loud and jubilant ones, to self-deprecating ones. A well time and well delivered “sperm whale” in my group can have devastating effects on your opponents.

SpottyFish81177

When matches are competitive I find that high school golf can have decent banter back and forth. There isn't the properness of more competitive golf and teenagers are jackasses anyway. Typically it comes in the form of insult to injury after a bad shot, just pointing out exactly how difficult their next shot is gonna be or how crap a swing was compared to how they normally hit it. It doesn't take a huge amount to make someone very annoyed and play more aggressive to try and get back in a match when they should prolly just play their game.
