Funny Golf Hats

Golf is having the biggest run in its history. 48.1 million Americans now play some form of it, up 41% since 2019, and the growth is coming from a younger crowd who found the sport through simulators, social feeds and a friend who would not stop talking about it. Millennials expect to spend around $4,557 a year on golf. Almost none of them are any good, and that is the funniest part. This collection is written from inside that experience. The handicap that is emotional rather than numerical. The four hours that produced exactly one good shot. The back nine that is in better shape than the actual back. The golf widow at home on a Saturday morning who did not choose any of this. Every line names golf out loud, because a joke about slicing it is only a joke if you know what is being sliced. The type does real work here. Clubhouse serifs for the wry confessions, heavy slab for the ones that are basically a receipt, and collegiate arch lettering in gold thread for the designs that want to look like a trophy plate. Fairway green, spruce, cranberry and stone, with thread colors chosen per hat rather than defaulted to white.
