dee s asked:


a deep thicket. After much searching, he finally found his ball laying next to a leprechaun. The little guy had been hit on the head by the ball and was out cold. The golfer revived the leprechaun and upon waking, he said “What happened?” The man said, “I must admit that my golf ball hit you on the head. You weren’t breathing, so I gave you mouth to mouth. I am terribly sorry for hurting you.” The leprechaun was touched by the man’s honesty and kindness, so he offered him three wishes. The golfer declined, saying he was just blessed knowing that the leprechaun would be OK. After the man left to continue his game, the leprechaun decided to grant him three wishes any way, and gave him what the leprechaun himself would have wanted: 1) A great golf game 2) Endless wealth and 3) A great sex life.
A few years passed and the same golfer took the same vacation and hit the same wild shot into the same thicket, and after much searching, ran into the same leprechaun……..
The greeted each other. The leprechaun asks, “So how have you been? How’s your golf game?”

The man said, “It is amazing! I hit under par every time I golf.”

“And how is your financial situation?” asked the little man.

“Well, funny you should ask. It is the strangest thing, but every time I put my hand in my pocket, I pull out a hundred dollar bill,” said the golfer.

“That’s wonderful,” said the leprechaun. “And if you don’t mind me getting personal, how has your sex life been?”

The golfer got red in the face and said, “Well, it’s OK.”

The leprechaun was astounded. The other wishes came true–what happened to this one? “What do you mean OK? How many times do you have sex in a week?”

“Oh, maybe three or four times.”

“Only three or four?” cried the leprechaun.

The golfer replied, “Well, I didn’t think that was too bad for a priest with a small parish…”

Discount Golf Vacations: Save Money While Enjoying Golf!

Saturday, July 26th, 2008

Jay Land asked:


Do you like to golf? Would you like to learn how to golf? Is it time to take a vacation? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions why not consider discount golf vacations. Spending a vacation with family and/or friends is always an exciting break from the hectic routines of every day life. This is especially true in an era where we’ve become so busy with our work that we find it difficult to spend the amount of time necessary for building quality relationships with the important people in our lives. A golf expedition that is not only affordable, but is experienced with those closest to you, is the ultimate getaway.

You can plan your own vacation or choose between the many discount golf vacations deals that are available. There are thousands of websites, travel agents, and vacation planners that specialize in themed vacations. If you have access to a computer and the Internet, you can be online in no time and connect to the resources you’ll need to plan a trip to any of the best golfing available and for an affordable price.

Many seasoned travelers have long realized the savings that can be gained by scheduling their trips during the “slow” season, a time when they are not directly competing with the tourist crowds for accommodations, airfare and golf courses. The trade off here is that the weather may not be at its best but keep in mind that there is no weather guarantee in “peak” seasons either.

Choosing to take discount golf vacations does not mean that you have to sacrifice quality in order to save money. With some perseverance you can put together a vacation or find a package that offers accommodations and green fees for up to 50% off of the regular price for large groups.

Here are some basic items you should look for whether scouting out a package or putting the itinerary together yourself:

1) Hotel accommodations or Vacation Rental

2) Air Fare

3) Vehicle rental or shuttle service

4) Group tours

5) Golf course

6) Green fees (does this include golf cart, caddies, etc)

Again it doesn’t matter whether you are planning the details of your trip, or decide to take a package deal, the above list is a good starting point. In addition, make sure that you research your accommodations and the golf course for background information and traveler reviews.

Keep in mind that any time you take a trip you should invest the time to do some homework on each of the components that make up your discount golf vacations.

Not only will you get the best price available, but also it will virtually ensure that you enjoy every minute of your hiatus.

mrs.v asked:


My husband and I want to go to Ireland for about 2 weeks. We want to fly first class, and stay in nice castles and 4 star hotels. We definitely don’t do hostels! We don’t golf either. We’re just looking to have a great romantic time! How much would you suggest saving? Considering airfare, hotels, meals, souvenirs, outings, car rental, etc. I have about 15 months or so to save up for this vacation. (My husband is deploying and after he returns we want to go on a huge romantic trip) Thanks all!!

Abhishek Agarwal asked:


If a quality golfing destination is on your mind, your purpose will be served best by considering various Maui golf vacations. You will have a wide variety of excellent golf courses to choose from and it is quite impossible to not find one which fits your needs perfectly.

Some Exquisite Maui Golf Vacations

Among the various kinds of golf vacations to choose from in Maui, it is the public golf courses which are most popular among all. Maui boasts of some of the classiest public golf courses capable of testing your golfing abilities to the limits.

- The Khalili Golf Course

Located on the Western Maui Mountains slopes, this breathtaking golf course is too good to be ignored. Its serene environs overlooking the sapphire pacific can offer some of the most memorable moments you will ever have on a golf course.

Designed by Rodney White along with Robert Nelson, this Par 72 golf course was completed in the year 1991, thus making it one of the contemporary ones around. Considering the challenges it offers, this golf course is brimming with activity throughout the year with a number of golf events happening here. The Khalili is a real test of a professional or an amateur golfer as one cannot survive the complete course if one is even a little inaccurate.

- Kapalua Resort

With PGA Tour happening here every year, this golf course is arguably among the cream of golf destinations in Maui. This golf course with some breathtaking sceneries was conceptualized by the team of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw and takes one over beautiful pineapple plantation fields and various natural formations. The Kapalua resort is meant more for the professional golfers and playing here means that you could possibly run into the likes of Tiger Woods.

- The Pukalani Country Club

This Golf Club offers a beautiful panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean. Built in the year 1970, this golf course is fairly old and was designed by Bob Balddock. It spans over almost 160 acres of land. Despite its age, it still attracts attention of many golfers over the world for the challenges it poses.

If one looks at all the essential factors that make an excellent golfing destination, Maui fits the bill almost to perfection. When thinking about golf vacations, one just cannot ignore Maui. Hence, you must get in touch with your travel agent to get the best vacation plan that suits your wallet.
