The last time I was at a golf course I almost got my arm broken by a renegade golf cart, that kind of ruined the whole game for me.

Okay, I'll try and stay nice, which, for this subject, is extremely hard for me. Simply put, golf is -blam!-. Just... -blam!-. I can't believe people do it. I hate every single part of it. I don't hate you for enjoying it, and I respect your opinion. However, golf is probably the -blam!-est thing to happen since... -blam!-s. Let's hit a ball into a hole, which requires no physical effort, barely any skill, and call it a sport.

sport (spôrt)

1. a)Physical activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively.
b)A particular form of this activity.
2.An activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.
3.An active pastime; recreation.

Ummmm sorry to break it too you but golf is all of those things that you listed in the bottom of your post. Last time I played golf I walked over 2 and a half miles around the course carying a bag of clubs that weighs 30 pounds and a lot of it was up hill.

Golf is a precision sport its not like football where some big dumb ox can just go run people over and get paid for it.

and if you think about it getting a ball 1in in diameter into a hole 1and1/2 inches in diameter 400 yards away doesn't sound easy to me.

Basketball is essentially the same sport as golf only the ball is bigger the hole is bigger and you are closer to it making it all the more easy.

and since golf started in the 1450's and has grown more popular ever since I do believe that it is a very active pastime.

so don't go crying -blam!- just because you are inadequate at something.

Haha! Active? You swing a stick and hit a ball. That's all you do! Oh no, now I have to walk to the next hole. What a tragedy! Hmm... why don't I rent a golf cart while I'm at it. And, I'll get some other sucker to carry my clubs! That's what "professional" golf is about. Just a bit of walking can barely be called active. Why don't you do a real sport, one where you actually train your muscles, improve your health, and maybe even work up a sweat? If you can do all this while walking to the next hole, I feel really, really sorry for you.

Like I said before, this is just my opinion, and I still respect yours for liking golf.

Whoever thinks golf requires no skill obviously has none. Golf requires more skill than football does. A great golf game is exciting. Just because you stink at golf doesn't mean you're all of a sudden the final word on the subject.

Golf rocks. Nothing beats taking a day off and going off to play a round of golf with some buddies.

Even though I don't play football, I know it takes skill. The hours of strategy, training, and you have to be tough. You have to get dirty, and it involves a lot of running. Sure, I don't like the sport, but at least they do something.

Basketball, you have to run back and forth, actually running, jumping, for over an hour in total. Teamwork is essential, and you have to train hard to become good. You can't run for the first 15 minutes and then just start walking.

Golf might take skill, but sports are where you have to be in top physical condition to be good. Anyone can be a golfer, as long as they do it a lot, and have reasonable accuracy. That's the difference between sports and games.

You guys are getting me all wrong. I said, that I think golf is -blam!-. Sure it takes skill! And I'm sure you guys can enjoy it! All I'm saying is that I think it's -blam!-, and that I don't enjoy playing it! Is it that hard? I'm just stating my opinion! I respect yours, so you should respect mine.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

My brother is the 1st assistant professional at the place where they are holding the skins game.

NO KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to counter your thoughts on what you wrote. #1 I would like to see you walk over 7,000 yards with the temp. almost 90 degrees with a fully backed bag and walking up a VERY steep hill.( I'm too young to use a a cart). #2 There are some poeple who can bang the ball 300 some yards (Don't say they don't have muscles.) But to play golf you need flexhibility and consentraition.

I have to do this again (sorry) to counter your oppinion that golf is not a sport.

Golf is competive and has rules and it is physical active plus you need skill.

I know this is your opinion. I am just trying to change your views. But at least you actually have an oppinion, right?

Just on the fact that you used football as an example... I fail to see how gorging yourself and getting up to 400 pounds and then just standing there and holding some guy could possibly be considered healthy. The only people that take skill are the quarterback and the recievers everyone else are just big dumb brutes that get paid millions because of how fat they are.

Tiger Woods sucks because he is using NIKE; clubs, balls, etc. He used to be "the best golfer in the world".

Anyways, golf is not easy, those of you that say it is haven't played eighteen holes with a full set of golf clubs. Golf is also fun and challenging.
