There’s a joke about a golfer’s handicap in here somewhere......

Wow I thought he died already. Bob Barker will be 95 this December.

A rich guy wouldn’t be playing at a public course.

Maybe it was over an 8 foot "gimmie"?

Or whether gas or electric golf carts are better for the environment?

So what’s the guy’s new handicap for his next round?

Is that a one or a two-stroke penalty?

If he was chomping down on my thumb, I’d make sure my other thumb was down in one of his eye sockets.

My high-school age son and his friends tried to play their first ever round of golf recently. Several people were rude to them, even though they explained that they were amateurs and asked people to go ahead of them. One person who was particularly rude was transgender with a gigantic chip on his shoulder. He kept criticizing the boys’ lousy shots until he finally said, “you just assume that you can play golf because you have a pen*s, isn’t that it?”

The boys left at the 10th hole. This was a public course in Los Angeles. The course had a list of conduct rules to be observed, but it meant nothing to the jerks who showed up to play.

If someone bit my thumb off, I’d be waiting at the prison gate when he got released in 20 years.

What is the stroke penalty for biting off a rival’s thumb?

The 46-year-old faces charges of assault and battery, mayhem and disturbing the peace. He was released on $10,000 bail and ordered to stay away from the victim and alcohol.

Maybe somebody called him ‘fat’, and he went into a dark red rage. If alcohol makes him lose control like that, then he should never touch another drop unless he’s alone.
The guilty party looks as though he could be American Indian.
Just speculating. I’ve always heard many of this ethnic group cannot tolerate very much alcohol at all without becoming dependent on it.
