My good friend who I grew up playing with in high school, was given "Pitch and a Putt" as a middle name by a guy we used to play against since he did it so often...His first and last name also started with a P.

Instead of saying the sh..k word, I use 'Chinese Hook'. Because saying sh..k just encourages more of them to suddenly appear.

One time, a buddy--who was NOT trying to needle me--said, "Just a chip and 2 putts from there." And we all paused and looked at him. Then all started laughing. It was a candid, inadvertent insult about my short game. Of course, the rest of the round, there was a lot of "Just a chip and 3 putts from there for you..."

My wife and i played with an old man once, he fatted a wedge so bad and immediately yells "Oh Fat Titty". We were on the other side of the fairway in our cart, we looked at each other and started busting out laughing. A hole or so later and he does it again "Oh Fat Titty" and then a third time. The only thing is, on the third time we were close enough to hear that he was actually saying "Oh fat city". So now a chunk is affectionately known as a "fat titty".

"BERMUDA!!"

 

Many years ago, a buddy and I decided we had enough of Winter and did a last minute late February weekend skip off to Bermuda to play a few rounds in some warmth. We found CHEAP accommodation (not so easy to find anymore) and air fares and off we went. First round was about an hour off the plane at the Par 3 course at what is now I think The Fairmont. In the Pro Shop there was a small index card stuck to the counter. It read something along the lines of "If your ball lips out more than 90*, it defy's the laws of physics since all of the ball was in or above the hole, therefore that putt counts". We had a good chuckle with the guy and off we went. Wouldn't you know that almost immediately within 3 holes we had 2 lip outs between us.

Next day it was off to Play at The Belmont. They didn't have a similar sign,though. Sometime during that round I had a real lip spinner... In my state of disbelief I yelled "BERMUDA!!!" and it has kind of stuck since then.

 

(Oh, we don't count them these days- it's just fun to yell "BERMUDA") We've kind of had a lot of fun with it these days- A putt that is less than a 90* might be a "BAHAMA", one that just bobbles on the edge as it goes by could be a "HAITI!".

 

So if you're playing on a public course on Long Island and you hear "BERMUDA!!!", now you'll know why!

If I hit a good tee ball on a par 3 that's covering the flag, mid flight I'll say "well its all in Jesus hands now boys".

For some reason this thread is revived, so I'll add two.

Me and my buddies call a thinned shot that goes skimming through the fairway a "worm-burner"

And I have a friend who, when he passes gas and it's a little bubbly says "that was 'lectric" I finally asked him how it was electric and he said "I felt the juice run down mah leg"

Two shots that land right beside each other - "I haven't seen two balls that close together since my morning shower."

Two shots in the same bunker - "are we/y'all talking orders from Hitler?"

Putt blown 10 feet past the hole - "played with the finesse of John Henry."

Straight at the pin, but short of the green - "straight as my pecker and just as short."

"You know why they call it golf? Because (insert 4-letter expletive here) was already taken!"

Player still out after a stroke - "That's a USGA shot - You Suck, Go Again."

In those situations when someone is annoying you (usually give you grief after a poor shot or result) and you're already really annoyed at yourself ... or, when someone is hanging around and being a pest and you want them to go away but are in mixed company so don't want to swear...

When you miss the green right or left, but the distance was spot on: "Right size, wrong shape"

 

 

I'm a White Sox fan if anyone gets the reference.
