The Laws of Golf - Part I

LAW 1: No matter how bad your last shot was, the worst is yet to come. This law does not expire on the 18th hole, since it has the supernatural tendency to extend over the course of a tournament, a summer and, eventually, a lifetime.

LAW 2: Your best round of golf will be followed almost immediately by your worst round ever. The probability of the latter increases with the number of people you tell about the former.

LAW 3: Brand new golf balls are water-magnetic. Though this cannot be proven in the lab, it is a known fact that the more expensive the golf ball, the greater its attraction to water.

LAW 4: Golf balls never bounce off of trees back into play. If one does, the tree is breaking a law of the universe and should be cut down.

LAW 5: No matter what causes a golfer to muff a shot, all his playing partners must solemnly chant "You looked up," or invoke the wrath of the universe.

LAW 6: The higher a golfer's handicap, the more qualified he deems himself as an instructor.

LAW 7: Every par-three hole in the world has a secret desire to humiliate golfers. The shorter the hole, the greater its desire.

LAW 8: Topping a 3-iron is the most painful torture known to man.

LAW 9: Palm trees eat golf balls.

Nice list. May I propose an adendum to Law 2: Your best hole ever will precede your worst. Example - hole-in-one followed by a quadruple bogey on the #18 handicap hole.

Apart from the 'laws' does anyone experience strange, supernatural phenomena during their game? I'm convinced beings from another planet are beaming my tees up nanoseconds after I've tee'd off - they just vanish! I have been fortunate to find a few (like ten meters behind me), but I'm telling you... they're taking my tees and doing experiments on them!
