I try to put(t) a little white ball in the cup. Just an UnProfessional golfer sharing tips & laughs daily and/or weekly.

Early morning tee time? Don't wipe that dew off your ball—it's "improving your lie," costing two strokes. Dewsweepers, consider a towel for your tears instead. #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction #GolfLesson #GolfCoach #GolfDrills #GolfMadeSimple #GolfLife #PGA #livgolf…
If Mother Nature's gust moves your ball, play it as it lies—no penalty. But if you "accidentally" blow it with a fan, replace it without penalty. Because artificial air is cheating. #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction #GolfLesson #GolfCoach #GolfDrills #GolfMadeSimple…
Wow !!
Wow. Bonkers. The Jordan Spieth cliff shot from an angle I’ve never seen before. All the people saying “He wasn’t even close to the cliff” can now apologize. Anyone who has been to that cliff knows how crazy his shot was. It was truly insane.
Who else likes to see this happen to pros sometimes? Gives me hope :)
Never forget Ernie Els nightmare 7-putt from within 3 feet on the opening hole at the 2016 Masters 👻🫨 #Halloween
Can't find your ball buried in a bunker? You can rake around to locate it penalty-free. But once spotted, no more digging—because sandcastles are for kids, not pros. #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction #GolfLesson #GolfCoach #GolfDrills #GolfMadeSimple #GolfLife #PGA…

Pine Cone Peril: Ball nestled under a pine cone on the green? It's a loose impediment off the green, but on it, play both as they lie or eat a two-stroke penalty. Nature's whoopee cushion. #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction #GolfLesson #GolfCoach #GolfDrills…
Bug-Off Blues: Ball in a hazard with a bee chilling on it? That insect is now part of the hazard—you can't shoo it away. Play the ball (and pray for no stings). #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction #GolfLesson #GolfCoach #GolfDrills #GolfMadeSimple #GolfLife #PGA #livgolf…
Fruit Trap Fail: Ball embeds in a half-eaten apple (or any fruit)? If it’s loose on the ground, pick it up as a loose impediment. But stuck inside? Play it buried or take the unplayable hit. Who knew snack time could shank your shot? #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction…
Cactus Cover-Up: Divot near a cactus? You can smooth the divot, but covering the cactus with a towel for safety? Nope, that’s tampering—penalty time. Desert golfers, apparently, need to embrace the prickly life. #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction #GolfLesson #GolfCoach…
Interesting stats #golf #GolfStats
Scratch golfers are NOT superhuman. Of the ~68 million golfers in the world, fewer than 1% are scratch. This mega-post of scratch stats will SHOCK you and reset your expectations. BOOKMARK THIS POST! Revisit when you feel bad about golf! 👇👇👇👇👇 ----------------- They…
Creek Chase Chaos: Ball bobbing in a creek? You can swing at it mid-flow, but no waiting for the current to nudge it closer— that’s delaying for advantage, two strokes. It’s the USGA’s way of saying “no cheating with hydrodynamics.” #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction…
Gator or viper too close for comfort near your ball? Get free relief from the “dangerous animal condition”—no penalty. But if it bounces out and you catch it instinctively? Play it from your hand’s spot. Survival first, etiquette second. #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing…
Does not appear to be a hole in one … Under USGA Rule 3.3a, a stroke counts as holed only if the ball comes to rest in the hole unaided; the ball here fails that criterion, making it a near-miss rather than an ace.
For me it’s when I have to wear heavy long sleeves that mess up swing … so as long as I can take it off before swinging I’m good playing and my feet/hands aren’t freezing up either, I’ll try to play … that’s a lot easier down here in the south than up north :)
Bug Off, But Not Too Much: Ball in a hazard with an insect crawling on it? You can’t touch or remove the bug—it’s considered part of the hazard. Entomologists must love this one; it’s like the bug gets hazard privileges. #GolfTips #Golf #GolfSwing #GolfInstruction #GolfLesson…
