A Good Golf Memory

Quick story from the golf trip…I was playing the first morning with three guys. Four of us went out to play while we waited for some of the others to arrive. There was a round later that afternoon with the entire group, but for some reason, the four of us seemed to think we needed to cram a sixth round into the weekend.

I knew one of the guys in the foursome, but I met the other two that morning. One of the new guys started out the round struggling very badly. I waited until about the 5th or 6th hole and then I asked him if I could give him some advice. I told him that I could not help him with his swing as I have never played with him and had no point of reference. However, I asked him if he had ever played a good round of golf. He laughed and said yes. I told him that instead of focusing on figuring out what he was doing wrong today, he should think back to that day when he played well and focus on how he felt that day. Think about that day and what he did to play well. I explained that focusing on what you are doing wrong is a common amateur mistake in golf, and he would be better off to focus on something positive.

He began playing a little better over the next few holes. About four holes later after hitting a great shot, he turned to me and said all he was thinking about was the day he got a blowjob on the golf course.

I have to admit, that wasn’t quite what I had in mind when I gave him the advice, but hell, whatever works. I am a little surprised that I needed to remind him to think about that day. If that had happened to me, I would think about it everyday.

This was just day one – round one - of the trip. Imagine what happened after that.

OMG that is hilarious! See that is why I need to find people to play golf with...the playing that is, not the blow jobs!

I have to admit that wasn't what I was expecting either:) But, your advice could be taken for just about any situation where one might be tanking...
