Alright, let’s talk about this golf thing, the “Midwest Open Leaderboard,” whatever that means. Heard some folks yappin’ about it, so I figured I’d chime in.
So, this Michael Block fella and his boy, Dylan, they won somethin’. Good for them, I guess. Seems like a big deal, folks were makin’ a fuss over it. They played at somethin’ called “The Pete Dye Course” in French Lick. Sounds fancy, probably got more grass than my whole farm.
They were playin’ this “Good Good Midwest Open.” “Good Good”? What kinda name is that? Sounds like somethin’ a baby would say. Anyways, they won it. Birdied the 18th hole, whatever that means. Sounds like they got lucky, birds ain’t got nothin’ to do with golf, far as I know.
- They used a “PING G425 MAX 10.5” driver. Don’t know what that is, sounds like a fancy stick to me.
- And a “Cobra RADSPEED 14.5 3w”. Cobra? Like the snake? These golf folks sure got weird names for their stuff.
- And a “L.A.B Golf DF3 Putter.” Putter? Guess that’s what you use to poke the ball into the hole.
- And somethin’ called “Iomic Sticky Jumbo” grips. Sticky, huh? Probably helps ya hold on tight, I reckon.
Folks were lookin’ for updates on the leaderboard. Leaderboard? Is that like a big board where they put the names of the winners? Seems like a lotta fuss over hittin’ a little ball with a stick.
I heard you can find scores and stuff on somethin’ called “*”. And “*” too. They got all sorts of numbers and stats, like “par,” “birdie,” “eagle,” and “bogey.” Sounds like a whole other language to me. They even got “tee times.” Guess that’s when you gotta start hittin’ your balls.
Folks talk about “men’s golf rankings” too. Rankings? So, they’re linin’ up these fellas like they’re prize-winning bulls at the county fair? I guess it matters to some folks.
This whole golf thing, it’s kinda confusin’ to me. But I guess if folks enjoy it, that’s their business. Me? I’d rather be tendin’ my garden or feedin’ my chickens. At least I know what I’m doin’ with them.
But hey, congratulations to that Block fella and his boy. Seems like they did good. Maybe they’ll come out to the farm sometime and teach me how to swing one of them fancy sticks. Though I reckon I’d probably just end up hittin’ a cow on accident.
Golf’s all about hittin’ a little ball into a hole far away, seems like. Takes a lot of skill, I reckon, and a whole lotta patience. More patience than I got, that’s for sure. These fellas gotta walk around all day in the sun, hittin’ that ball. Must get awful thirsty.
Anyway, that’s all I know about this “Midwest Open Leaderboard.” If you wanna know more, you best go ask them golf folks. They’ll probably talk your ear off about it.
It’s a funny world, ain’t it? Some folks are out there hittin’ golf balls, and some folks are out here milkin’ cows. Takes all kinds, I guess. And as long as everyone’s happy, that’s all that matters.
So, there you have it. My take on the golf thing. Not much, I know, but it’s the best I can do. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them chickens.
