SuperDave Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 This may have been done before but thought it may be fun. Golf quotes I know can come from anywhere. From tour pros to movies and authors to poets who never played golf in their lives. I'm sure we will read some great ones. Name person the quote is from if you know.

Kenny B Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 There are so many good Caddyshack quotes, and I use many of them all the time. However, I say this one from Chubbs to myself a lot...

hckymeyer Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 A few of my favorites in no particular order. "Fake it til you make it" - No idea who said it. One of my buddies always said as a response to him wearing a nice golf outfit. It stuck with me. "Be the right club today" - Hal Sutton Judge Smails: Ty, what did you shoot today? Ty Webb: Oh, Judge, I don't keep score. Judge Smails: Then how do you measure yourself with other golfers? Ty Webb: By height.

Kenny B Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 How many times have you played a side wind to move the ball, only to have the ball go perfectly straight?? Here's an old adage that many people here attribute to Kenny B, but I must have heard it somewhere.

Kenny B Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Heard this one listening to a Golf Channel broadcast of a tour event... likely said by Rich Lerner. "With the right line and the right speed, the ball will go in the cup."
