I doubled down on my Louisville excursion this past weekend and after my Catholic picnic experience I went to Check's and ordered a country fried steak with mashed potatoes and green beans and I'm not joking. My dinner date ordered a reuben. #excursions

The excursion was my favorite part of the honeymoon, left the all inclusive and went to local shopping market, had authentic food that was really good, got to see some beautiful rainforest like shit, and then we got to jump in an aquafir (sp?) was a good time for me. But we had a small group and I get bored quickly so it was right up my alley.
One of the things I wish I knew how to do was golf. Older I get the more it seems like a great way to spend a nice day, and there are a couple of country clubs by us that would be fun to join but hard to justify without knowing how to golf. Seems an almost impossible task to try and learn now, but there's a top golf opening by my house in a couple months so maybe that's an opportunity for me and my wife.

Golf is way too expensive and takes around 6 hours to play, per Tony. Good luck with that!
Seriously though, it's never too late to learn golf. If that's the main thing holding you back, stop being foolish. Not to mention all the other great things that come along with joining somewhere (Pool, tennis, social, business, pickleball).
Just look at Pope, he just started in the last 5 years really, and he's already shooting in 3 figures on 18.

Was kind of funny last night at family dinner. The other male guests all play golf, and in fact are going on a big trip this week. Anth started getting a little edgy when we kept discussing playing golf, since he had nothing to contribute. (Ray even mocked him for not playing the last several years)
Anth tried to change the subject a few times, but we just talked over him.

We see you're no longer interested in hearing about getting away from your wife, kids, housework, et al for a few hours to drink beer and compete in a fun game with your friends. You have now been removed from the golf conversation.

Bwhaha. False.
Ray has played 3 more times in the last 3 years than I have. They both were dissing joining a country club and rolling their eyes at you constantly bragging about "going 360."
Sorry you golfers don't get it. It's expensive and slow, all said it takes 6 hours door to door for a round. I'd much rather cycle.
Exact phenomenon I'm talking about from that podcast/delts.
One little secret you might not realize is that 95% of golfers completely suck ass at golf. You shouldn’t be intimidated by “just starting out” at all.
Does he actually bring this up in normal conversation?? Like, not just GYERO-style bragging, but a regular dinner convo? Good Lord, Doc...do you talk about your fantasy football team too?

Yep, us golfers just don't get it, man! Wasting our lives away out there. One day if we're lucky we'll all be able to look back at how stupid we were.
Nobody was even talking about joining a country club last night. They were reminiscing on all the fun they’ve had over the years going on their golf trips, and wondering why you watch golf so much but don’t play.
And for the record I was the only Delt there.
Somehow you finish a round, door to door, in 3 hours and are back home helping out with normal life. You're right, I guess we don't get it.

Lol. They absolutely were. We talked to Joe about possibly doing it when he retires and we wouldn't do unless we lived on the course. Maybe if you weren't talking over people about "going 360" you would've heard.
That's hilarious.
Rickie might get his soon now that he has decided to settle down with pole vault girl.
- Season 3 of Billions was excellent.
- Westworld has been hit and miss this season.
- Succession has my interest after the first two episodes. Next weeks looked good.

I know it was a setup episode but last night was the worst episode of the series.
Disagree. Thought it was one of the good ones. A little slow and not much action but a lot of meat there IMO.
I haven't taken anything out of context. TS.Umm, Joe and I were in the kitchen having a private conversation about swing mechanics when you came in. Sorry he was curious how far I was hitting the ball. I knew you’d blow this story out of context.
I mean you out drove a semi-pro by 50 yards. Right?
The reason I was not talking is because I was rolling my eyes so hard.
I've never said it was horrible in fact the opposite. I've had a great time out there with nearly everyone in this thread. What I've maintained:
1. If I have to choose b/w golf and cycling, it's cycling.
2. It's expensive.
3. I suck and to get better I need to be out there at least 3 times per week.
4. When you play with my group they go off at 10a and require post round beers so from when I leave until I return it's 6 hours and typically longer.
5. If I was gone every Saturday/Sunday from 9:15a- 3p, I'd be single. I also don't get much time with G during the week so I prefer to spend that time with him.
Once G is old enough to golf I'm sure that will all change and I'll pick the game back up with him. But golf guys, keep telling us how cheap it is and how fast it goes.

Yeah, if that happens it will pretty much be the best thing & player of all time. #BBN
Sloot...the kids and my wife did it last summer. They absolutely loved it.
I was playing golf and crushing beers. Probably went 360 a few times if I'm being honest.
