Here’s a sample of golf cliches and some good comebacks from this month’s Golf magazine. If you play golf, you’ve heard these cliches on the course, and you understand that busting your buddy’s chops is as important as chipping and putting.
Cliche: “That dog will hunt.”
Comeback: “It won’t after I run over it with my truck.”
Cliche: “Time to let the big dog eat.”
Comeback: “That reminds me — how was dinner with your wife?”
Cliche: “How’d that stay out?”
Comeback: “Because it was a horrible putt. Sorry, was that a rhetorical question?”
