have you ever wondered....

Have you ever wondered:

Why people that can't get a $50 driver into the air always seem to eventually show up with a $500 driver and they still can't into the air? Proving once again that it is not the club, but the player and their swing that causes things to happen the way that they do.

Why a perfect practice swing is nearly impossible to apply to the actual shot?

Why the person that asks what they are doing wrong never wants to hear the answer? "Your hips and shoulders are wide open at address and take away, Bob, and you are coming over the top". "I don't do that, Jim." Bob, "ok, what ever Jim. That is why every ball you hit goes dead right with this mysteriously unpredictable slice."

Why people with odd swings and set-ups always say that is what their pro told them to do? What pro would tell someone to swing like Chi-Chi Rodriquez or Jim Furyk?

Why that shot that you flubbed into the drink is much easier when you execute the provisional ball? The same rings true for tee shots hit out of bounds....the provisional tee shot is most often rifled right down the middle about 300 yards.

Why people that are not as good a player as you are ask you how you played today and then give you grief when you tell them you slugged it around the course for a 81 and had 3 double bogies? They react by saying that 81 is a great score. It isn't when you were even par after 12 holes!!!!

Why you find so many Titliest Pro V's in the weeds, water, and woods on public courses? And why they are quickly replacing TopFlights as the ball I find most frequently in those places? An awful lot of bad golfers are playing very expensive throw away balls, no?

Why I always justify a score that is not to my liking by singling out the one or two holes that cost me a good round? "I shot 79 but I had 4 three putt greens!"

Why three putt bogeys comes in droves?
