Knucklehead Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 I’m primarily a boring Budlight guy. I used to drink a six pack per 45 holes back when I was a member at a local club. I’ll occasionally have 1-3 on 18 holes, but usually none due to filming my YouTube channel. I don’t care to drink at home, I’m a light social guy at dinner. I also like an occasional margarita Quote Knucklehead Golf(YouTube) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be more expensive that putter collecting and you can't drink a putter out of existence. My favorites so far: Eagle Rare McKenna Bookers Maker's Mark Cask Strength Evan Williams Bonded I'm in the Ranger Club at New Riff, so I've got a collection of single barrel releases. It's amazing how different bottles of what should be the same recipe can be. That's leading me down the hole of many single barrel bottles.I find that I like what is considered "sweet" bourbons, so Woodford Reserve and Wild Turkey variants lead my list. My go to is Old Forester 1920, as well as Eagle Rare barrel strength. I tend to like the barrel proof bottles, that I dilute to my taste.Sent from my SM-T580 using MyGolfSpy mobile app GolfSpy Dave 1 Quote Moose, my cat, is Siamese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fozcycle Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Are there any Irish Whisky guys in here? I like bourbon, like ryes, don't care for most scotches, but have recently fallen in love with Irish Whisky. Some of my favorite everyday drinkers are Jameson Black Barrel, Tullamore Cider Cask and Writer's Tears. Redbreast 12 is great and my favorite is Green Spot.I am a Bourbon drinker by birth, born in Frankfort KY, home of Buffalo Trace Distillery.Last week being St Patrick’s Day, Jamison is in my golf flask right now.

JeremyD Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I once worked with a guy who, when I met him the first time, offered me a drink off of a bottle of Crown. I said no and he responded it wasn't a question. So I drank. Played golf with him a couple days later. His golf bag was a cooler. An actual cooler that looked like Mary Poppins' magic purse, as he kept pulling out whiskeys, beers, vodkas, mixers, and another thermos filled with bloody mary mix. On every hole was also left 4 jello shots. This was a fun crew. As for my personal preferences, I love a good Leinenkugel Summer Shandy, or any other wheat type beer. I'm not quite ready to jump on the spiked seltzer while golfing train just yet.

Rhinosparky Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 On 5/20/2020 at 2:48 PM, TCUFrog said: During round drinks: A good transfusion on the course can not be beat. Properly prepared (if you disagree with this recipe, I'm sorry for your tastebuds), it is double titos, 2 lime slices, splash of grape juice, rest ginger ale served on ice. Often times the halfway house will give too much grape juice and it makes the transfusion to sweet. If you're looking to sneak a couple in your bag on the course, the spiked arnold palmer is a great canned drink that's not beer. For a beer on the course, I tend to go for a light beer. After round drinks: Winter post-round drinks, I usually go with a rye old fashioned. Some of my favorite rye whiskey's are rittenhouse, templeton, or angel's envy. For a summer post round drink, a good margarita on the rocks is a refreshing drink on a hot day. Always ask if the margarita is made with a mix, if the answer is yes order something else. Cant beat a transfusion, but it must be made with welches grape juice. The only issue I have is the two shots per dink. It can catch up with you on a hot day quite fast. Most courses look at me like in drunk when I ask for welches in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
