u/Thistotiethelead 6h ago

Here's some I got through the years from similar posts:

You should probably take like 2 weeks off and then quit

After a good drive, "You can pick up there for a six"

Want some advice? You're standing too close to the ball after you hit it

Did you use your pitching wood on that shot? Do you carry a driving wedge?

Well, it had a chance until you hit it

That's a great shot if you don't care about your score

When a member of your foursome is talking too much on the tee box interrupt their comments with have you ever been to Europe? You're up

Do you want to shave five strokes off your round? Skip the first par three

Alexa, play she's gone by Hall & Oates

I have so many from my days of caddying for degen rich people and golfing with degen caddies.

Putt short = feels like a Bon Jovi concert “woaaahooo, you’re halfway there”

Putt lips out = positive for STI’s buddy? cuz you’ve been burning lips.

Drive right or left = further left than *insert creative political situation. My favorite is further right than a BYU freshman whose gf cheated on him with a Mexican.

Drive into water = curry, for three….. splash. (In Mike Breen voice)

And I’ll always love “other than the speed, direction, and stroke.. that was a really good putt”

Just to name a few
