Go to west side golf course with a shite ton of balls and play 36 holes.
There are basically no boundaries and everyone sucks.
Feel like hitting 7 tshots? Do it.
Feel like making anyone who fails to hit their tshot past the women's tews walk to it with thwir pants down? Do it.
Feel like pounding bloody marys and dodging errant tshots from other golfers? This is the place for you.
Have fun for 6 months and then worry about getting better.

Golf is the exact opposite of trashy.
True, in principle.
But when trashy people play golf, it becomes trashy.

Rookie mistake. Can usually go to the 18th hole and you'll have guys throwing their bag at you.
Play with someone who is semi-good (shooting 79-88). Someone who doesn't give too much "pro" advice, but more along the lines of "keep your head down, shoulders square" advice. You'll get over whelmed if you have too many "pros" trying to teach you on the course. Once you can hit the ball with good contact, go play a round. You'll lose by 20 strokes, but if you hit that one good shot, and every golfer knows what I'm talking about, it'll keep you going to the range and hitting 100 balls every other day. Before you know it, you're only losing by 18 strokes.

79 is semi-good. 88 is not. Hell, 85 isn't either.

The problem with this is more often then not those people that are giving vague advice have no idea what they're talking about.

This will take years. Once you can hit the ball consistently in the air, go play a round. Solid ball striking and ball control come with time, not necessarily practice.

True but atleast all the trash will be at public courses with tee shirts and blue jeans on hitting Walmart clubs & teeing off with range balls.

Smoking weed is trashy baw. I will drink about a dozen and a half PBRs though.
