As a Scotsman this is an attack on my native voice. This is part of my culture.
But seriously, public courses are the shit, get hammered and whacking balls around a windy links is great. It's is a working class past time where I'm from.
Stupid manicured greens that need non-stop watering and clubs full of fucking tossers can get fucked.
OK, thanks for responding. I've heard that traditional links on marginal land are fine, but I always kinda wondered if that was just propaganda. I've never golfed, but I can definitely see the appeal of whacking a ball with a stick while taking a nice walk on the seashore. In my area it's all manicured greens, unfortunately. At the public courses, can you rent clubs like you rent shoes at a bowling alley?
I'm in the states and my city has a municipal course that costs I think $30 for a tee time and you can rent clubs for a reasonable rate. It's kinda manicured, but I think they try and use as many local grasses as possible for everything that's not the green.
Every city should have one municipal course available to anyone.
Clubs don't even cost much. Got myself a 7, a putter, and one of those chipper ones, all for a total of 30 quid.
I remember one of the executives at my old company would fucking practise his putting in his glass walled office all day while on phone calls. Utterly cliched penis.
Probably off in regards to bodies and bang on for schemes, even though I think that's a happy coincidence for them. It also doesn't take exertion to play.
The environmental impact of disc golf is how many trees I hit with the discs.
Learned how to play it in rehab and had a lot of fun doing so. It's great too because you don't need to be really physically fit to play.
when i was in college I made friends with this wealthy failson but he grew up in a place where most of the other kids were even wealthier. He was telling me this story about how he'd go golfing with this one bourgie kid that would only want to go to this uber richey golf course that had automatic teeing pins or something and when my friend said something about going some where else he was like "you want me to reach down and set up my own ball? what am I poor?!"
You see, my dear unmarxist fellow, abolishing golf does nothing to affect the material conditions which gave rise to the golf.
I really don't care for how annoying anti-golfers are, you're never going to win people over to your side by aggressively targeting us golfers.
Adam Smith hated landlords tho, so he probably would have hated golf too
My dad plays an ipad golf game for several hours a day because we are too poor to play real golf. It's great, this should be the future of all golf.
Those games are way more fun than real golf. It's just a physics puzzle at that point and costs almost nothing. Real golf takes 4 hours, costs a shitload, and the course is filled with drunk chuds.
Mini golf and wii sports golf are the only acceptable forms of golf
