Default Hello. My name is Rock, and I am a golf addict.
Hello, My name is Rock, and I am a golf addict.

When I'm out golfing, its as if everything else melts away, and I don't care about anything else in the world. I just forget about anything else that matters...my job, my home, my family.

My wife says I've been spending more time at the golf course than with her. I just keep thinking, hey, it'll probably rain one of these days, I'll spend time with her on a rainy day. But today, today is beautiful, I'm going to go golfing.

I already have high aspirations for my yet to be born child to be a professional golfer, and I dream of gaining access to exclusive golf courses because of it.

When I'm at home, I have to watch golf, or the golf channel, even if it's a replay of some tournament from 20 years ago broadcast in standard definition.

Whenever I drive by a golf course, I always have to comment to myself or whoever is in the car, "that's a nice looking course,"...even though it could very well be the worst course ever made, but it looks nice b/c I would rather be playing it than driving in my car.

I spend too much time at work on THP, reading about other people's golf games and golf experiences. It's not me playing golf, but it's the closest thing I can do to get my golf fix.

I constantly shop for oil paintings of golf courses to decorate my office with. (speaking of, anyone know where to find good oil paintings of golf courses?)

No matter how well I play, I always feel I could have done better. It's like chasing a dragon, but you never catch the dragon.

Even when golf punishes me bad on the course, I can't help but go out the next day, and play more golf.

I am a golf addict (and I wouldn't trade it for anything*)





*except my family, of course

So, you pretty well wrote the biography of 90+% of the people here. Good read.

My wife told me yesterday that I'm addicted to golf. So I decided to confess it here on THP. What's everyone else's 'I'm a little too crazy about golf' stories?

Mine pretty much follows exactly what you said. I have the curse of a huge window right over my right shoulder where I sit at work, there is a flag in the short distance and anytime I see that flag NOT blowing overly hard and a clear sky I'm very antsy sitting here. My wife is constantly telling me I love golf more than I love her...but really that's not a fair fight (for her). The game just grabs a hold of you and never lets go. I love it!

Almost. Doing anything with my 2 little boys will get chosen over golf. And I have chosen my wife, and school, over golf. Good thing my 2 boys love going and hitting balls with dad. When our little par 3 course opens up we will be all Over that place.

Welcome! You are amongst friends here. You pretty much summed us all up! The only difference between you and me is I live in Oregon, so I get plenty of rainy days

Golf is the world's only addiction where those addicted are not searching for a end all cure. Just play more golf to fuel the addiction.
