..heard on The Golf Channel from Rich Lerner:  "With the right line and the right speed, the ball will go in the hole."

The funny part there is... that guy gets paid mucho $$$ to announce pithy, deep thoughts like that..!

Same thing but phrased a little more biting: "Oh man, bad line, but at least you got the speed wrong."

Favorite thing I've heard in a while  -  when someone's lag putt comes up outside your putt, you tell them it's a "dead sheep" - when they look at you, confused, you tell them "still you (ewe)".  So dumb, but makes me laugh every time.

Or the ever reliable "Nice lag" when someone leaves a 5 footer short.

 

A couple I remember from the old Golf Illustrated Magazine:

"Most long putts are really situations that must be grasped" 

or even better

"Puttin' makes asses o a'" (Scottish caddie)

Mostly :taylormade-small: ITB. SIMMs, P790s...etc

Won't you pour me a Cuban Breeze, Gretchen?

Ha that guy must've been a Yogi Berra fan - he might've said something just like that .. because, you know, "90% of putting is mental and the other half is getting the ball to the hole" 🤪🤣
