Golf Balla

So today I go golfing and meet up with this guy on the 3rd green. He is probably in his 40's and is wearing khaki shorts and a Lacoste polo which he has tucked in. He's swinging a new Titleist driver and has Mizuno MP-30's that look like he just took the protective plastic wrap off them. Long story short he says something like, "Want to make this interesting?" Two things run through my head: a) this guy is a clown and is underestimating me based the two bogeys I've made and b) I have $2 in my wallet.

"Sure, how much?"

"$1 a hole and $2 a side?"

"Ahhh, come on, $3 a hole and $10 a side with carry-overs and I'll play."

Keep in mind I can't cover if I lose even 1 hole and I just upped the ante. This guy is probably thinking, "No way this 20-something, out of shape, afro wearing kid in jeans and a hoodie is going to beat me in golf."

On the front I shot 39 winning 5 holes and a total of $25 in the process. At this point my opponent hasn't said much more than "Nice shot" or "God damnit" for a few holes and I can tell that the back nine is mine before I tee off. I managed to lose the first hole after hitting my 2nd shot over the green OB but I rallied nicely to take a net of 5 more holes on the back bringing my earnings to $50 for the day after my 39 made his 44 look like 55.

After I holed out from the fringe for birdie on one hole he said something like, "A blind squirrel finding the nut" under his breathe and I couldn't help myself.

"This blind squirrel has taken three quarters of the holes today. Man I'm run well."
