As social a game golf is, you are bound to meet a variety of people, personalities and hear things you have never heard before! Sometimes funny, sometimes inappropriate but usually always entertaining are the musings of golfers during a round.


We are going to explore some of the things I have heard on the course and you can decide the dual meaning, entendre or hilarious application taken in a different context.


Here are just a few of the things golfers are saying that may or may not carry the same meaning in everyday life:


"Which hole are you playing?"

"Can I borrow your wiggle stick?" (aka Swing Trainer)

"Sit, Sit, Sit!"

"Go, Go, Go!"

"Get in the hole!"

"Hit a house!"

"Nice lag"

"I like that shaft"

"Stop Turning!"

"Bladed it!"

"Sculled it!"

"Hit it thin!"

"Hit it fat!"

"Chunked it!"

"Hit it, Alice!"


Obviously, these are just a few of the things you have likely heard while playing this beautiful game. With our group, some of my favorites are:


"Nice shot...you prick!"

"Put it inside me!"

and the best one I have heard in a long time...."Are you part Brazilian? The way you shave around the hole, I thought you might be!"


Admittedly, not all of these things are PC and/or could be considered offensive, but in golf, like life, looking for the humor without taking things too seriously can be healthy - otherwise, where's the fun?!


What are some of your favorite course quips?
