Tell me where you work, so I can apply. I would love to get a $4K bonus check.

Take the money pay it against your mortgage or pay off a credit card or two.

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to take an ass whoopin'.....author unknown (but obviously brilliant)

I voted for buying the clubs but gdmoody has the best answer yet. In times like this paying off debt is the best thing to do. Why pay a bank all of that interest. Pay it down and buy what ever you like... with cash!!!

Some quotes about GOOF:
Give me the fresh air, a beautiful partner, and a nice round of golf, and you can keep the fresh air and the round of golf. ~Jack Benny
Golf is a good walk spoiled. ~Mark Twain
Golf seems to me an arduous way to go for a walk. I prefer to take the dogs out. ~Princess Anne of Great Britain
If you want to take long walks, take long walks. If you want to hit things with sticks, hit things with sticks. But there's no excuse for combining the two and putting the results on TV. Golf is not so much a sport as an insult to lawns. ~National Lampoon, 1979
Golf is a lot of walking, broken up by disappointment and bad arithmetic.
Golf is essentially an exercise in masochism conducted out-of-doors. ~Paul O'Neil
Golf is an open exhibition of overweening ambition, courage deflated by stupidity, skill scoured by a whiff of arrogance. ~Alistair Cooke
No game designed to be played with the aid of personal servants by right-handed men who can't even bring along their dogs can be entirely good for the soul. ~Bruce McCall, "The Case Against Golf," Esquire
You can't call it a sport. You don't run, jump, you don't shoot, you don't pass. All you have to do is buy some clothes that don't match. ~Steve Sax
Golf is a game where white men can dress up as black pimps and get away with it. ~Robin Williams, 1986
There is one thing in this world that is dumber than playing golf. That is watching someone else playing golf. What do you actually get to see? Thirty-seven guys in polyester slacks squinting at the sun. Doesn't that set your blood racing? ~Peter Andrews

Wanna shoot really well? Take lessons from an expert. Wanna Golf really well?........... According to experts, shooting isn't really all that natural, neither is Golf.
To the Golf naysayers, it's not about the game, it's about the challange of it.

I live next to a golf course.....
I can hear them folks yelling......" I got four " !!
I guess if you're gonna shoot golfs, you would
need to get at least four with a shot, especially
if you are gonna eat them, 'cause they are really small.

I married a gal who was doing exceptionally well with golf, went to college on a scholarship 8th in the nation and you better believe I have to hold my own when it comes to golf. Having said that a new set of clubs is not the answer. Take some of the money and get private lessons. A good instructor will do more for you than any set of golf clubs. Now that you have covered that you need a new gun to take out your frustrations from playing golf. Besides letting here win at something just makes good marital sense.
