Bifocals
A foursome of hackers teed off at 10 am every Saturday
and all were usually there well before tee time. This Saturday
Dave rushed to the tee just in time, as the other three
had already teed off.
Dave apologized and explained that he had stopped at the
Optometrist office on the way to the course to pick up his
new bifocals.
Dave put on his new glasses, teed up his ball and after
turning his head this way and that proceeded to hit the
best drive of his life. Dave's approach shot to the green
was even better than his drive - leaving him a birdie putt
which he drilled into the middle of the cup.
Dave continued to play the best golf of his life, he broke
80 for the first time and won every bet.
Of course the foursome retired to the clubhouse after the
round to celebrate and allow Dave to buy drinks. After the
first round his buddies began to press him to explain his
new golf skills.
Dave said "Guys its these new bifocals - when I put them
on and looked over the top I saw a little ball and a little
club - when I looked through the bottom I saw a big ball
and a big club - but if I looked just right I could see
a little ball and a big club. So I hit the little ball with
the big club all day.
When I putted it was even better, I hit the little ball
into the big hole with the big putter." Well, everyone thought
this was exceptional and required several more drinks.
After a while Dave excused himself to visit the Men's room.
However, when he failed to return after a considerable absence
one friend went to check on him.
He found Dave at the urinal with the front of his trousers
soaking wet. "What happened?" His friend inquired.
An obviously tipsy Dave replayed "I don't know. I was standing
here taking a leak and I looked down and saw two - one big
one and one little one. Well, I didn't recognize the big
one so I put it back in my pants!"
