  • A Disconcerting Discovery

    I have a 3 to 4 handicap in golf, but over the last 15 holes I'm -3....
    and thats -3 while under the influence of pot. One of my buddies in our men's league group smokes on the course and he offered me some about 2/3rds of the way thru a round Sunday and I went -1 for the remaining 6 holes. So I smoked some today before our 9 hole men's league on another course and shot a 34 (-2).

    This ain't good, I dont want to be getting high to shoot my best golf.
    The only thing I can think of is I feel really relaxed when I swing, especially a driver off the tee. Its hard to describe the feeling, but I just feel like I'm grooving the driver. Tension in a golf swing can be a killer and the pot just makes me feel at ease. But what I find even more surprising is my short game and putting is improving. I did buy a new Nickent Pipe putter and man is it nice Drilling birdies from 20 ft out is almost as nice as blasting a 300+ drive.

    Anyway, just say no to drugs... I said yes and now I'm a cheater like Barry

      isn't smoking pot illegal? Wouldn't you get caught doing it in a public place?

      Maybe Tiger needs to start smoking so he can get his A game back.

            The pot relaxes. That's his gain.

              I should have had a 32 today, missed a 4 ft birdie putt and a 5ft putt for par after nailing the pin with my bunker shot.

              isn't smoking pot illegal? Wouldn't you get caught doing it in a public place?
              Yes, and not if you dont walk around with a pipe hanging out of your mouth. Its public but you can drink all you want out there so its not the same as standing on a street.

                    an update on my experiment - I finished 72 holes under the influence of pot I needed the first 5 holes to finish and I was -2 going in. I bogeyed the 3rd so I was -1 with 2 holes left. Par on the 4th so I had a par 5 left - and I smashed my drive about 340 with help from maybe a 15 mph wind. I was 155 out and nailed a 7 iron about 15 ft away and sank the eagle putt to finish -3

                    Now, I know I couldn't do this drunk so what does that say about pot? Doesn't seem to make me any less coordinated and I've never put together such a string of good rounds and I've played 100s without alcohol or pot.

                      Smoke pot AND take speed. Improve your game and get in 18 hole on your lunch hour, if your heart doesn't explode.

                        Lancer can tell you horror stories about what goes on with pot smoking at the casino:

                        Blackjack Dealer: What do you got?
                        Blackjack Player: Uhhhh...fifty-two.
                        Blackjack Dealer: Eh...close enough.
                        Blackjack Player: But I want to go down for double!
