Bragging Rights, by Len Nourse

After our 18 they heard: “Ouch, 8-three putts Len - sad.”
We heard: “Would you three over 70s like another nine - $1/hole, and since you’re tired you play off Red.”
They heard: “Sure Dads, but make it worthwhile; Scramble at $5/stroke, and all down ½tot per tee.”
We heard: “Laughter”
After 9 we heard: “OK that’s $55 each, double or quits?”
They heard, “You’re on but to give you a chance we’ll play off gold – they’re about 30 yards further.”
We heard: “Ouch $110, what happened to the 3-putts?”
They heard: “Scotch Dads”
Wives heard: “We’re eating out tonight.”
