Golf Rules: Twenty That Aren’t in the Book!
Drunks don’t generally play very good golf.
There’s an inherently social component to even the most competitive round of golf and beer goes well with a casual Saturday round with your regular playing partners on a sunny afternoon. Intoxication does not.
Nobody likes to play golf with a drunk except another drunk, and I certainly don’t want to get stuck playing behind two drunks for 18 holes of golf. Do you?
Do yourself, your playing partners, and the group playing behind you a favor and save the heavy stuff for the 19th hole.
While we’re on the topic of alcohol consumption, let me also suggest that it’s rather poor form to take your own to the golf course. If the course sells alcohol – it there a course that doesn’t? – then there’s a clear mandate. Alcohol should be purchased on site.
Don’t be a cheapskate. Buy your beer at the bar and leave a tip. Fetching it from a cooler in your trunk or back seat is high school stuff.
