Morticians and golf course designers.

I feel both professions have much in common:

Both try to make something better from what they have to start with.

Both try to balance their cuts and fills.

Both benefit from dieing for recognition.

I'm sure there are others............ :)

Both try to pretty up their body of work to gain admiration from the audience.
Live Jupiter, Fl, was  4 handicap, played top 100 US, top 75 World. Great memories, no longer play, 4 back surgeries. I don't miss a lot of things about golf, life is simpler with out it. I miss my 60 degree wedge shots, don't miss nasty weather, icing, back spasms. Last course I played was Augusta

Paul,

A quick question....why is the grass always nicer at the funeral home than it is at church? Not a joke, but I'm sure there's a punchline.
