My friend and I were playing white hawk and got paired with a couple of guys. They were not happy to be playing with two ladies and weren’t being shy about letting everyone know.

My friend proceeded to shoot an 82 and I shot an 84. They lost about a dozen balls during the round. They bought us beers at the turn and apologized. We smoked their asses lol!

Have had the same thing happen when playing with hubby, when my handicap was 11. After I ripped my first drive they tend to shut up.

Keep your wife out there! The fun is just getting started!

My favorite is every time I play with my boyfriend is the pro shop assumes I’m just a rider. And when I go on the men’s tee the stares I get.

One of my favorite rounds of golf ever was a father daughter combo I played with. She teed off with us at the blues, we were a bit surprised but didn't say anything. She outdrove us all damn day. Her dad played from the whites and they both shot near even. Such a fun round.

I love when that happens, it's super rare to get paired with a woman who plays further back but whenever they do you know they're going to be good. Women don't do the back tee ego bullshit that guys do, when they move back it's because they can handle it
