Default Golf: new terminology

I was listening to the commentary from The Open a week or two ago and heard this new reference to a putt of awkward length.



It sees as though the golfing fraternity use the term "A Dennis Wise" to refer to "a nasty little five footer"



Well, it made me laugh

I read somewhere that Alex Ferguson said that Dennis Wise:

'Could start a fight in an empty house'

He gives the vertically challenged a bad name

I kind of hoped this would turn into a thread about little known but humorous golfing sayings. Instead, we have a thread about Dennis Wise


My fault

G*lf's great..one of the few times that you can "drop one" no matter the company you are in and not be frowned upon! :P



















For those non golfers...Drop one means to score 1 shot more than the par for the whole being played.

But to school boys like me it also means something else! (Fnaaaarp!)
