Golf Thoughts

A keen but unskilled golfer plays the same course every week and has particular trouble with the water hazard on the 14th hole, losing a ball in it almost every time he plays that hole. One day he concludes that this process is too expensive and decides to use an old ball instead of a good one. He opens his bag and gets out the old ball, tees it up and addresses it. Just as he commences his backswing a mighty voice comes from on high:

“Use the new ball…”

So he picks up the old ball and tees up the new one again. He starts his backswing but once again is interrupted by a voice from the sky:

“Take a practice swing…”

The man steps away from the ball and rehearses his swing. Just as he steps forward to readdress the ball, the voice speaks again:

“Use the old ball.”

Executive Committee Meeting: The Men’s Golf Club Executive Committee meets the first Tuesday of the month at 8:30 a.m. in the Montgomery Center. The next meeting will be May 5, 2025.
