THAT'S GOOD ...
I can be confused with Tiger Woods on the golf course when ... I wear a red shirt on Sunday.
The shot I dread most on the golf course is ... anything out of a bunker!!!
My strangest moment on the golf course ... just happened recently at Sierra Lakes Golf Course. I was just off the green in a bunker. I hit a shot 30-yards over the green, which hit the roof of one house, richocheted and hit the roof of another house, then bounced on top of a brick wall and landed back in play right next to a tree.
The strangest thing that has happened to me, or I have seen on a Golfest trip ... will happen on Golfest 2008.
My (best) shining moment on the golf course ... has yet to take place.
If I could add or change anything about a round of golf, I would ... have the course marshalls kick all of the slow golfers off the course.
My fantasy foursome would include ... Phil Mickelson, Arnold Palmer, and my wife (she wouldn't let me golf with Phil unless she was there.)
