Unique golf phrases/words that you use...

Recommended Posts

Our group likes to use the following: Bill Pullman (pulled shot), Jeff Healey (healed shot), Ric Flair - Woo! (flared shot). If you skull a chip we like to say: you hit that one in the forehead. A shank is referred to as El Hoselle, or the Ole Mexican Chip Out. A draw or hook is called a Slinger (I am all to familiar with that one).

Most of ours are in regards to putting:

Hammer Hands ( Or los manos de los hammers)- a person who hits putts way past the hole

Shrimp D**k- a putt left well short

 

Then we have this guy Mark who thinks he gives the best reads on putts (they are actually often pretty good) but he never makes anything himself. Those are Mark Reads and they have been a running joke for some time.

A “Fabby” bet is for Fabulous Merchandise. Winner, instead of cash, gets to choose something from the pro shop that the loser buys (typically a shirt, not a Scotty Cameron!)

 

The advantage is you can wear the shirt as a sort of wearable trophy in future rounds to gloat.

For the guy in our group that has a succession of putts lip-out, we say he has liprosy.

I hit a particularly solid drive down the middle and I commented that I had "Nutted that one". Buddy steps up and flails one left into the woods and said that he had "Neutered that one". Now poor drives illicit the "neutered" comment.

Friend of mine this weekend, after he lagged a putt to three feet on an early hole, mumbled while half-distracted, “I’ll tap out.” instead of “tap in.” We kind of laughed a bit. “Ahh like in wrestling?! Yeah you should give up. Give up golf!”

 

For the rest of the round, there were plenty of opportunities to mimic this when someone in the group was on their way to a big number.... “I’ll tap out”. “I should have tapped out 3 swings ago.” “Or three holes ago.” “You should have tapped out 3 years ago.” “God that was a terrible shot. I’m tapping out.” “Argghh. Why do I play this stupid game?! I tap out!”

One of my favourites is worm burner for a low thin one but we mainly just try to wind eachother up after shots, whether good or bad, with overtly sarcastic comments

 

Ooh no one likes to see that

 

Ooh I wouldn't have hit it over there

 

Or an old favourite after a terrible shot

 

Good shot mate

 

Never gets old

Never phased by missing the green, as I usually comment to my wife, my playing partner, as it's "**just a chip and a putt** (away from par)". I say that so much, and often convert, that even she's saying it now. Or when I complain about being off the green, she'll say something like "what's the matter, remember "it's just a chip and a putt"!!
