You receive a call from your wife while at the range saying your mother-in-law has just been hit by a car. And you figure that you should at least finsih the bucket of balls before getting to the hospital. No, but seriously, she was fine. Walked out the same day.

DITTO above... actually:

When it's the hottest weekend of the year (the one that just went by, we're talking 90+ degree w/the heat index making it feel over 100 degrees!) and you decide to play 9 holes (& walk it) on both days, Saturday AND Sunday!!! And that's on top of going to the golf driving range on Friday afternoon to work on your swing/game!!!!!

When you are known (by the entire campus) to deliver your lectures using old golf club shafts (complete with grips) as pointers. In addition, you can work golf analogies into EACH and EVERY cell biology lecture over the course of a semester! Your office has a wall display of old persimmon clubs. There is a large "Life is Good" banner behind your desk with the smiley putting "Jake" on it ...

I'll stop there. There is more. biggrin.gif

When you are sitting up at 11:33 pm watching "The Approach" and reading this entire thread.

Also, when you are quitting your job in August to go back to school and you have set up an on-line savings account so you can still afford to play in the fall and your wife won't know about the extra money. I also have six dozen NXT Tours hidden in my closet.

hit a bucket of balls before work, during lunch, and after work.... and read Golfwrx during work.

cj3wood
lol all these are good.......

how about when you tell your girlfriend/wife that you are fixing your clubs when you are really reshafting them with some expensive shafts
or

when you are broke you head over to the chipping green with your shag bag and collect the leftover range balls and use those to hit on the range(cheap i know, i don't do it all the time).
or

when i'm at work and i notice a customer wearing something remotely related to golf(hat, shirt, etc) i try and strike up a conversation with them, which has led to a free round of golf because they ended up working at a golf course.
or

when you talk about golf so much at work that your co-workers don't say hi to you rather what'd you shoot yesterday?
