Back It Up
Arnold Palmer is playing in a big tournament and comes
to a 235 yard par-3.
After some deliberation, he takes out his 3 iron and sails
the ball 20 feet over the pin and backs it up to within
3 feet of the pin.
A fan in the crowd said "Mr. Palmer, how do you make a 3
iron back up like that?"
Mr. Palmer replied, "Do you own a 3 iron?"
The fan said, "Yes, sir I do."
"How far do you hit it?" said Palmer. About 160 yards was
his reply.
Palmer calmly said, "What the hell do you want it to back
up for?"
