The Golfer and the Big Red Barn

A guy and his wife are golfing. They’re on the tenth hole, and the guy’s ball is sitting directly behind a big red barn.

As the guy is staring down at his ball and contemplating his roundabout shot, his wife says, “Why don’t you just open up the doors on both sides of the barn and hit the ball through in one stroke?”

The guy examines the barn doors, thinks about it, and agrees. “That’s brilliant,” he says. “Good idea, dear.”

So the guy opens the doors on both sides of the barn and gets ready for his shot. He rears back, swings, and hits the ball on the heel of the club. The ball veers offline, hits a drainpipe on the side of the barn, ricochets off a tractor, and bounces off his wife’s forehead. She falls to the ground, unconscious.

Three weeks later, the same guy is golfing with three of his buddies at the same course. On the tenth hole, as luck would have it, his ball ends up at the exact spot as before. Directly behind the big red barn.

As the guy is staring down at his ball and contemplating his roundabout shot, one of his buddies says, “Why don’t you just open up the doors on both sides of the barn and hit the ball through in one stroke?”

The guy turns to his buddy. “No way,” he says. “Last time I tried that, I got a twelve on this hole.”
