Golfers Quotations

Among golfers the putter is usually known as the payoff club and how right that is! Putting is in fact a game in itself.

I've never been one to throw clubs, break clubs, or use bad language on the golf course. I've played with golfers who've done that, and I really hate to see it. If I did something like that, my dad would come get the putter and hit me upside the head with it. I knew better.

Golfers don't scream. Golfers just adjust the pleats in their pants and go from there. That's about as antagonistic as we get.

An American champion, obviously being here in the states, is something that we all look at with the U.S. Open. But golf is played all over the world, and there are so many great golfers from other countries, and we're lucky enough that this is our home base to be able to play out of.

Of course I would like to see us finish a little higher on the scoreboard, but I was proud of the way we competed this weekend. This is a relentless golf course that doesn't allow you to make any mistakes. It becomes even harder when you are playing with four golfers for the final two rounds and have no room for mistakes.

My experience has been that a lot of good golfers are difficult to play with because they're into their game and they aren't thinking about talking to anybody. But the guy who was the most fun to be around and to play with was Mickey. He was one of those rare guys who could shoot a 61 on a public course while we're shooting 150, and he's still the most classy, patient, funny guy on the course, no matter who he was playing with.

Maybe my naivety at not understanding how tough it is is a good thing, because so many golfers see it as mecca,

I've got a lot of favorite golfers.

We open at 10:30 for lunch and serve until 3 and then the dinner menu kicks in until 10. There are a lot of older diners in Fort Myers who want to go out to lunch or dinner pretty early and we try to accommodate them. We also have a lot of golfers in season who want to pop in for a quick bite.

The most important role is they send golfers out at the right time so there's the appropriate spacing on the golf course.
