Trapped

I was talking to a plumber friend recently about golf. He’s in his 50’s, and he’s been playing golf for a long time. It sounds like he’s pretty good.  I asked him if he, as a plumber, was pretty good, pretty nimble around the traps. He enjoyed the joke. He said that no one had ever asked him that before. 

I did not go to the obvious one and ask him, after he chipped onto the green from the trap, if he drained his putt. Or I suppose I could have asked him if he could sink a putt. No. And no question about plumber’s putt-y. No.

Sometimes you need to quit while you’re a-head.
