A man and his wife went golfing on a beautiful, sunny day. The man
stepped up on the first tee with a good feeling that he was going to
have the best game of his life. As the day and the round passed,
wouldn't you know it -- everything was going right in his game. He
stepped up to the 18th tee shooting 1 under par. All he had to do was
reach par and he would've shot the best round of his life.
He stepped up to the ball and gave it a good whack. He hit the ball
long, but sliced it off to the right. When he walked up to his ball, he
discovered that it was placed behind a barn. The man's wife advised him
to punch it back out, make bogey and walk away.

"No no no," the man replied, "I can do this if we open up the barn doors
and I hit it right through."

So sure enough, they opened up the doors and the man attempted the shot.
As the ball was traveling through the barn, however, it hit a post and
bounced off, hitting the man's wife in the head, killing her.

The next year, the man remarries and is out on that very same golf
course again. Once again, it is a great day to golf and he has a good
feeling about his golf game. He steps up to the 18th tee, once again
shooting 1 under par and needing par for the best round of his life.

The man steps up to the ball and boom! He pushes it off to the right. He
gets up to his ball and sure enough, he is in the same position he was
the previous year. The man says to his wife, "I am going to punch it
out, take my bogey and run."

His new wife replies, "No, no, no, we'll open up the barn doors and you
can shoot it right through and onto the green."

The man says, "No way, last time I did that, I made a 7."
