A retiree was given a set of golf clubs by his co-workers. Thinking he'd try the game, he asked the local pro for lessons, explaining that he knew nothing whatever of the game.
The pro showed him the stance and swing, then said, "Just hit the ball toward the flag on the first green."©JOKEDEMO.COM

The novice teed up and smacked the ball straight down the fairway and onto the green, where it stopped inches from the hole.©JOKEDEMO.COM
