If youv'e noticed when you move them back to the top there is one or two more. You know what's going on down there. I was so happy to see my cousin from Europe there.

Popular Post Yellow Ball 1,160 Posted October 10, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2021 Here’s yet another escapade from my trip to Oregon a while back. Just a fun fact here to start with. Oregon has the most ghost towns of any state. Just seemed appropriate since I am finally getting to post this one in October even though my trip was a while back. But having the most ghost towns makes perfect sense to me. Forget the crap about mining and lumber industries drying up. It’s because the golf season is only 5 months long and they get 37 inches of rain a year. I wouldn’t live there either! So I got a round in with @CarlH and a few of his buddies. I was never so confused. I could never figure out where I was on the course. His buddies were pretty impatient with slow play. There was a group of women in front of us and one of them was a notorious slow player. I think a snail could have kept pace with her. So we were jumping around the course playing different holes to keep moving. I think the golf gods were not pleased with him letting his buddies pressure him into skipping around and asked me to help them out in my own "special way". So I gave him as many bad breaks as I could. I like fried eggs even though it reminds me of one of my relatives. I figured I would give him one of those to start. He wasn’t saying very nice things to me after that. Now I know why his last name is Harsch. It just amazes me how quickly I can get under someone’s skin on the golf course. Right after this incident his chip- yips showed up. That put him on the bogey train after that. What a blast! Sometimes I have a little to much fun messing with people. I think these guys in Oregon have no patience. Always wanted to get away from the traffic. Now I will admit Carl wanted to play the course as intended. But he succumbed to peer pressure. He had a weak moment. Maybe he needs some balls! (Yellow of course) So you know Carl plays bad when he doesn’t get a good night sleep. He was probably worried about when Yellow Ball would throw him on the grill. So now that’s its out, and I gave him a hell of a day he should be starting to get some better sleep and his game will improve. Hey just a thought Carl, try counting yellow balls when you go to sleep! Just think of me smiling at you over and over! You’ll play so much better the next day. Oh wait that’s right, that won’t happen now it’s probably already snowing there! One Yellow Ball, Two Yellow Ball, 3YB, 4YB........Zzzzzz I wish I could have been with him on a different day. But you know, “Yellow Ball” can be anywhere at anytime! I felt bad afterwards and got him a root beer. I’m sure I’ll catch back up with him sooner or later. I did meet up with one more spy from that area while on my trip. But you will just have to wait to see who. It's going to be a long winter so hopefully some of my stories will help pass the time for you spies foolish enough to live where that white sh*t falls from the sky. 6 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's in print it must be true.. Yellow Balls reputation is on the line. Sorry to my therapist I tried to be nice! Tony, Tony Tony... you are going to ask a golfer for his side of the story. Haa Haa Haa. Next thing you know he will tell you he got out of the sand in one and made the putt! You know that didn't happen! I was trying to be nice and not comment on his sand game or lack of, but you opened the window. Sorry Carl, this one is on Tony. It's kind of like you telling us you cleared the pond and made the green on hole one with your drive. Oh my stomach hurts from laughing so hard. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My God man, your supposed to pick up immediately and spank it's bottom to get it breathing and bring out the darker yellow color.

Yellow Ball has played in Arkansas in late June. It was hot as hell and humid. I hate a sweaty ball. Reminded me of playing in Arizona except with the shower on. If you need me for your Member Guest then I'm coming in my birthday suit. No pockets = No cash! Now you know I've seen you play. Why would I want to throw away my hard earned money! Besides with my current popularity I am starting to get appearance fee offers, and another spy wants to be my agent for a book. @dlow206 paid for my flight out your way. You want me then Buck Up Buddy! Hope my head doesn't swell with all the popularity. I would hate to have to go out an buy all new hats. 2 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
