X2[^] range!
Want!
Just got to convince SWMBO to let me spunk £1300 on a set of clubs.

ooookay...well, that's not what I'd spunk £1300 on, but hey, I'll celebrate your individuality!

Mark, Golf is the only exercise I get.
(Apart from Jumping to Conclusions and Running Down The Boss).
I like to think of it as my Keep Fit Regime.
Up early, play 18 holes over 4 hours, card under a hundred (not counting the Mulligans or that terrible business at the 5th) then repair to the clubhouse for a sip of wet pleasure.
(That said I have not had a drop of alcohol since NYE, I am spending January dry)
Spring is on its way and I have bought my new outfits for this year and am just thinking of a new set of clubs so that I can get frustrated and swear at something shiny.

Golf is a great sport as long as you don't take it too seriously. A person's true character can be judged by their behavior on a golf course. I hope I never have to play with my brother-in-law again.
Fairways and greens!

I think you are addict...you should seek some therapy...unless it's cost more than £1300...

Do not just walk in there and pay full retail. They will always do deals as they have wiggle room and need to sell. They will give up a bit of their commission to do a deal. At the very least, get a bag and some balls out of them. Do not report back that you just spunked up the dosh without a fight!

Strange. They don't appear to be laser guided, or have telescopic sights, or even a trigger.
Surely some form of projectile weapon would be more accurate?

As a golf nut my goals at the beginning of each round are the same. No swearing and no club throwing. If I accomplish those two goals I have played well.

Indeed! I have managed to stop throwing clubs, but just can't keep from uttering profanities on miffed shots. One other bad habit I need to work on is to stop my unwanted commentary when the missus and I are playing...this only applies to the bad shots...praise is necessary for good ones. (even if she is using yet another mulligan!)

Well, not that impressive as there was something called the ice age[^].
BTW; Is it you in the picture?

Now you know why, while driving around the U.P., you see exterior doors built into the 2nd floor of houses up there, with no stairs leading up to them!

Nobody seems quite sure:
"Another hypothesis is that it derives from "heh heh", which is Malagasy for, "I don't know". If correct, then the name might have originated from Malagasy people saying "heh heh" to Europeans to avoid saying the name of a feared, magical animal."
