I love Thanksgiving. I love spending time with the family. I love stuffing my face so much that I struggle to keep my eyes open at the dinner table. I love no longer struggling to keep my eyes open on the couch after dinner. I love having turkey sandwiches for the next couple of days. It’s an all around great time of year. The time of year to give thanks and appreciation to your friends and family.
But today I want to take the time to give more specific thanks. I want to take a moment to give thanks to everyone in my golfing life. I’ll start with my wife.
I have many things for which I should give thanks to my wife. First off, thanks for using your work hook-ups to get me my new golf clubs! I’m looking forward to the chance to use them more often than I did this year.
Second, thanks again for using your hook-ups to get me and my buddies on to a few courses for some sweet discounts! There’s nothing like playing a nice course for less than half price!
And third, thanks for not busting my stones when I golf rather than clean out the garage, mow the lawn or any other household chore that I should get done.
Thanks to Josh, my oldest, for using his birthday money to purchase his own set of clubs. By doing this, it gave me the chance to take him out for his first round. I hope it’s the first of many.
A long overdue thanks to stinky golfers Greg and Tom for introducing me to this game all those years ago. If it wasn’t for you guys, I may have never taken up golf and consequently, I would never have known what I was missing!
And last but not least, thanks to everyone who takes the time to read the ramblings we post here. Whether it’s serious, comical or just downright nonsense, we thank you for appreciating and/or understanding exactly what we here at golfstinks are trying to do. Without you, there is no us.
This will be my last post before the holiday, so Happy Thanksgiving everyone, and thanks again for your much appreciated support.

Sometimes it’s the little things that make life worthwhile, right Chris?
Happy Thanksgiving, guys. We’re glad you’re out there too.
