I don’t think the heavy stuff’s gonna come down for some time
So I looked at my watch at 1:30 today then checked the weather radar and determined that I could squeeze in 9 and get back to work before I was missed.
I’m in the tee box at 1:45 I take two practice swings then smack one about 225 yards down the right side of the fairway in the rough. 6 Iron into the tree in front me of the ball shoots directly right into another tree and comes straight down - net gain, 20 yards. 7 iron to the fringe, putt to within 6 inches, tap in for bogey. Hole 2 (number Handicap), after a phone call from the wife I tee up and hit one about 250 yards into the trees on the left. I pull out my three iron take an easy swing and place the ball dead center 4 feet inside the 150 marker, 7 iron up the hill, lob wedge hit perfectly and the ball slowly rolls into the hole - Birdie!! Hole 3, 275 yard drive into the rough on the right, 9 iron to the back of the green, long putt, 2 short putts Bogey!
Hole four, which turns me facing the oncoming angry golf Gods and with a seven iron in hand I watch a bolt hit the ground which sends electricity through the air. I drop my ball anyway on this 150 yards par three and put it 15 feet from the cup. I look up another lightening strike. Hmmm, I think to myself - “I’m in great shape to be 1 over par after 4 holes and the next hole I traditionally play very well”. So as I walk to putt I call the pro shop and ask about the weather, to which they say we’ll come and get you what hole are you on. Damn - Surely the good lord wouldn’t interrupt what is shaping up be the best round of my life! Well as I hearkened back to the Caddy Shack movie I remembered how that one ended.
So to answer your question, Yes, the golf Gods know when you’re playing well!
