9th's Joke: |
A young man who was also an avid golfer found himself with a
few hours to spare one afternoon. He figured if he hurried and
played very fast, he could get in 9 holes before he had to head
home. Just as he was about to tee off an old gentleman shuffled
onto the tee and asked if he could accompany the young man as
he was golfing alone. Not being able to say no, he allowed the
old gent to join him.
To his surprise the old man played fairly quickly. He didn't
hit the ball far, but plodded along consistently and didn't
waste much time. Finally, they reached the 9th fairway and the
young man found himself with a tough shot. There was a large
pine tree right in front of his ball and it was directly between
his ball and the green. After several minutes of debating how
to hit the shot the old man finally said, "You know, when
I was your age I'd hit the ball right over that tree."
With that challenge placed before him, the youngster swung hard,
hit the ball up, right smack into the top of the tree trunk
and it thudded back on the ground not a foot from where it had
originally lay. The old man offered one more comment, "Of
course, when I was your age that pine tree was only 3 feet tall."
