When you're watching a repeat of the Playing Lessons from the Pros... for the 5th time.
Or when you fall asleep watching TGC, wake up 3 hours later, and the same show is on that you fell asleep to... then you stay up to watch the end.

when you plan a work road trip so you can
1. Return the Byron putters you borrowed from Hairpie to "check you putting stroke against my Rife 400)
2. check into hotel (at 2:31 am, just finished playing poker), first thing I do is log in to check BST for a 9.5 08 Burner TP with whiteboard.
3. So that I can get up at 8am and watch the US open ALLDAY while I work out of the hotel room and not be bothered by my wife saying "That's not really work!"
4. Did I mention I'll probably goto Mortons golf shop at lunch too?? (Hi Ken).

do I win the prize now.???  g'night

Call in sick to work to watch 12hrs of us open round 1 coverage (without putting it on mute to avoid listening to berman/miller talk)
When you are in court and you are less concerned with how much your fines   are but rather how soon you can get to a course to tee off.

When they only thing your 10 month old son wants to play with is the golf balls and the putter you bring in to the house everyday because you use his right foot as the cup and he thinks you're playing fetch,  It's quite nice that he is learning to roll them back to me!!!  Now if only he can stay still

Oh man, I have the perfect spot of land for a nice rolling hill golf coure.  I'd love to design a course.



I know I'm addicted because my homepage is a golf forum website.  And I wake up and go to sleep with The Golf Channel on the flatscreen.  I work 3rd shift, always away on my nights off until 3 or later a.m.  I'll go out and take practice swings at midnight.  I'll chip/pitch in the dark until I hit the fence and wake the neighbors dog, then I run inside like a kid.  I have divots  in my ceiling and marks from where I swing too hard and things get out of hand!  Yeah, I'm addicted.  I also have enough clubs for a foursome.  WOw, things are getting bad  

[sshoe9]

When you're registered to take the June 16th 2008 LSAT, but re-schedule for October 4th at the last minute b/c you don't want to miss the US Open Monday playoff. (yeah, true story)

When you take your exams with a golf pencil.

When you schedule all of your classes for the evenings or online so you can practice golf all day.

When you sneak onto your course during a hurricane so you can hit a 400+ yard drive.

When breaking 90 is a pre-requisite for a future wife.

When your thankful the economy is slow so I can take more time off to Golf.

When you still go to the course where the cart girl is your x-wife.

When you play a quick nine before work and manage to get in another 18 after work. Putting in the dark by braille.

When you park your car outside because your garage is a putting, driving and chipping practice area, and a club repair shop too.

When, during the holidays, you only shop in golf stores and even the non golfers on your list get golf  gifts.
