Yep..he can probably make it once.  But he has to do it 6 times in a ROW!!!!.

Toxo...don't sweat the hijack.  I think what you guys are doing is awesome.  I'd love to be able to fling some arrows on the local course.  I'm like you...used to play the game and then one day I woke up and couldn't bear the thought of wasting 6 hrs on a Saturday to play golf.  so I gave it up cold.

Toxo,

I've always wanted to try archery golf. I hear there's a place in WI that does a shoot or two every year, but I've never been able to make it up there. It sure looks like a blast.

I wish golf courses were open year round! the deer woods would be less crowded!

DANG I'll admit, that "golfery" looks like a lot of fun!

I have shot some golf, but find that they don't taste as good as the game I've harvested with my bow...

They are exactly the same.  The idea in both sports is to get a "hole in one"!

I can't afford to golf at $50 to $200 per round.  But I can still sling arrows in the back yard.  I have 2 arrows left and the upper right corner of my block still works.

I don't golf but repect those who do . Seems like we have a little in common , one important thing I see is that both compete mainly with themselves regardless of other participants . I don't care if I shoot better than anyone else just as long as I shoot up to my standards and improve as I go along .  That's why they make chocolate and vanilla , we're all different and yet the same . We've all eaten ice cream but enjoy different flavors , same with our passions , mine happens to be archery , Fred

In archery you get to EAT what you shoot.
In archery you get to see better scenery and you get to sleep under the stars.
In archery you get to spent more time in the outdoors.
In archery you don't have to worry about some  guy yelling "FOUR"...just too many blowing on bugles!
In archery I have never seen someone throw their bow into a lake!
In archery you get to make your own equipment.
In archery you can actually shoot "as straight as an arrow".
In archery it costs nearly nothing to go shoot "a-round" (once you have bought several bows, arrow making equipment, quivers, etc.!)
In archery you don't have to wear those shoes with spikes that make all sorts of noise when walking on payment and are uncomfortable.
In archery there are no water hazards, only wallows!

I like archery better than golf. The feeling of being at one with the woods and trying to get close enough to kill an animal that spends its entire existence trying to avoid that very circumstance is amazing. That being said about the only golf I play now is more enjoyable than any day shooting archery. I only play golf now when my father visits from Australia or I get home for a visit and we play one round. He is an avid golfer and it is special time with my best friend. We don't take it seriously and really enjoy ourselves.

One thing golf has that archery doesn't is the 19th hole   :bigsmyl:
