Golfing Without Clubs. It's Harder Than You Think!

If you think hitting a tiny ball with a club, into a tiny hole 200 yards away is hard, try doing it without the club.
Golf isn't easy for me. The only consolation is that most people play just as bad as I do.
Every time I hit the ball, there's a 50 / 50 chance it won't go where I want it to. On the rare occasion where I get it to go more than 50 feet, it goes hundreds of feet to the left or right. Sometimes it just flops 3 feet ahead, followed by an embarrassing clump of turf that manages to go 20 feet. I'm pretty bad.
One day, I decided to just try throwing the ball. It sounds like cheating, but as it turns out, it's still pretty hard. Throwing the ball eliminates those embarrassing hooks, slices and flying clumps of turf, but unless you've got an arm like a big league outfielder, it's going to take quite a few throws to get the ball on the green.
The rules are basically the same. Just ditch the clubs and throw the ball.
So, in a way, it's an entirely new sport. It eliminates most of the aiming, but it's quite a bit more athletic. Give it a try.
