  • He [Bill Clinton] told me that he caddied in the same group with me in the Hot Springs Open. That's why I voted for him, becasue he was a caddie.

  • I know you can be fined for throwing a club, but I want to know if you can get fined for throwing a caddie?

  • In golf, driving is a game of free-swinging muscle control, while putting is something like performing eye surgery and using a bread knife for a scalpel.

  • Putting allows the touchy golfer two to four opportunities to blow a gasket in the short space of two to forty feet.

  • Never break your putter and your driver in the same round or you're dead.

  • Actually I was more of a breaker than a thrower - most of them putters. I broke so many of those that I probably became the world's foremost authority on how to putt without a putter.

  • If you are going to throw a club, it is important to throw it ahead of you, down the fairway, so you don't have to waste energy going back to pick it up.

  • The biggest liar in the world is the golfer who claims he plays the game for exercise.

  • Always throw your clubs ahead of you. That way you don't have to waste energy going back to pick them up.

  • Golf is a game where guts and blind devotion will always net you absolutely nothing but an ulcer.

  • I wonder who is going to finish second.

  • I've thrown or broken a few clubs in my day. In fact, I guess at one time or another I probably held distance records for every club in the bag.

  • The good chip allows you to whistle while you walk in the dark alleys of golf.

  • The mind messes up more shots than the body.

  • There is no better game in the world when you are in good company, and no worse game when you are in bad company.

  • They throw their clubs backwards, and that's wrong. You should always throw a club ahead of you so that you don't have to walk any extra distance to get it.

  • Water holes are sacrificial waters where you make a steady gift of your pride and high-priced balls.
