18 “holes” on a golf course. You use the clubs that allow you to hit far to reach the “green”, then you use the shorter clubs to make your ball land softly on the “green”.

Once on the green, the grass being cut extremely short, you tap your ball with a putter, towards the “hole”, which is intentionally cut into the green. It is extremely satisying when it falls in the hole. (Yes, it has sexual underpinnings)

God created the game, to be not only the epitome of all games, but so as to mimic life. That means- its frustrating as hell, and meant to destroy pride and build a tenacious, godly character, wherein you learn to forgive yourself.

It was given to the Calvinist Scots, as was their shitty weather, because they needed humbling more than the rest.

I will try to remember this explanation to tell my buds if I golf again Steve.
