  • SYMPATHY FOR THE DUFFER

    Please allow me to introduce myself
    I’m a man of wedges and tees
    I’ve waited around for a long, long winter
    Played many a round indoors
    And I was round when tiger woods
    Had his moment of doubt and pain
    Made damn sure my teaching pro
    Flexed his wrists and spoke his fate
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you play my game
    But what’s puzzling me
    Is the nature of my game
    I played around the same old links
    When I saw it was a time for a change
    Drove the car without synchromesh
    My friends all screamed in vain
    I rode a cart
    Holed a three foot putt
    When the birdies raged
    And the bogies stank
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you play my game, oh yeah
    Ah, what’s puzzling me
    Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
    I watched with glee
    While my hooks and slices
    Fought for decades
    For the lessons they forsake
    I shouted out,
    Who killed the wound ball?
    When after all
    It was you and me
    Let me please introduce myself
    I’m a man of wedges and tees
    And I landed in traps with many a ball
    And got killed before I reached the fairway
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you guessed my game, oh yeah
    But what’s puzzling me
    Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down,
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope you drive the green, oh yeah
    But what’s confusing me
    Is just the nature of my game
    Just as every golfer has a handicap
    And all the spinners saints
    As heads grow larger and larger still
    Just call me Alfa Golfer
    cause I’m in need of some new swing
    So if you meet me on the practice range
    Have some courtesy
    Have some sympathy, and some taste
    Use all your well-learned politesse
    Or I’ll shank my ball to waste, um yeah
    Pleased to meet you
    Hope we’ll play a game, um yeah
    But what’s puzzling me
    Is the nature of my game, um mean it, get down
    Woo, who
    Oh yeah, get on down
    Oh yeah
    Oh yeah!
    Tell me sharkhark, whats my game
    Tell me leftygolfer, can ya drive the green
    Tell me cdnputter, whats my game
    I tell you one time, you’re all to blame
    Ooo, who bellyhungry
    Ooo, who hannah
    Ooo, who cobbie
    Ooo, who, who compugeek
    Ooo, who, who golferboy
    Ooo, who, who big shooter
    Ooo, who, who dekker
    Oh, yeah
    What's me game
    Tell me, hogannut, putt the green
    Tell me, mule, drive the green
    Ooo, who, who nearace
    Ooo, who, who pingnut
    Ooo, who, who corchard
    Ooo, who, who rbaker
    Ooo, who, who goshawk
    Ooo, who, who guitarman
    Ooo, who, who racmbs
    Oh, yeah

            Hopefully, or at least well plagiarized!

              Hello Alfa Golfer,
              Welcome to the board. Most the young ones won't get that introduction, but that was not only thoughtful but slick. So in honor of your intro and our chances today:

              Oh, a storm is threat'ning
              My golf game today
              If I don't get better weather
              Oh yeah, I'm gonna fade away
              Par, children, it's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              Par, children, it's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              Ooh, see the urge is sweepin'
              Our very street today
              Burns like a red coal carpet
              Mad bull lost its way
              Par, children, it's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              Par, children, it's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              Birdie, eagle!
              It's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              Birdie, eagle!
              It's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              Birdie, eagle!
              It's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              The floods is threat'ning
              My golf game today
              Gimme, gimme shelter
              Or I'm gonna fade away
              Par, children, it's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              It's just a shot away
              I tell you par, brother, it's just a chip away
              It's just a chip away
              It's just a chip away
              It's just a chip away
              It's just a chip away
              chip away, chip away

              Don't tell that young ones the great "poets" we're parodying so we can keep the fun between us more experienced folks. I just hope no one calls us the Glimmer Twins.
              Have fun and enjoy.

                Thank you Mule. I thought what was old was new again but I'll keep the original authors mum (for now).

                  I think that saying has been changed to what's old is gold. It may go up or down in value depending on the day, but it's always safe in times of turmoil.

                    Hey you two old guys, let's leave the names of those legends a mystery.


                    Oh, wait, I'm one of those old guys too! Whoops!!

                      Is there a prize for naming the original authors and the reusers?
                      Aim at nothing and you will hit it every time.

                        Methinks it too easy to warrant a prize but what'd you have in mind?!

                            Apparently, I missed the cut.
                            Canada's best golf instructor is Nick Starchuk.

                              Will, if you mean not being mentioned by name, it was only due to a lack of space, I assure you!
