Golf dan Kisah Hidup Kita

Saat sedang mempersiapkan untuk melakukan tee shot di lobang ke 10 dengan par 4.

?Duh! Udah main seharian dan hanya terus-terusan par.?

Anda mengayun stick golf Anda, bola terbang ke sebelah kiri, agak sedikit di jalur yang Anda inginkan tetapi akhirnya melebar terlalu jauh. Sialnya, bolanya memantul ke arah rough.

?Seharusnya sekarang saya pukul 100-yard ke arah green, kalau tidak saya harus berjuang lebih berat lagi untuk par di lubang ini.?

Anda memukul dengan skill kelas dunia, seperti Tiger Woods. Bola itu terbang dengan indahnya namun hanya melewati green dan jatuh di belakang green.

Wow! Meski bola telah memantul dengan buruk ke arah rough dan pukulan yang sangat baik keluar dari rough, Anda masih harus berjuang memukul bola menuju lubang di luar green dengan jarak sekitar 40 feet. Anda menghela nafas panjang, menenangkan diri Anda barang semenit dan memukul bola dengan lembut menuju lubang.

?Wow! Bolanya meluncur mulus dengan kecepatan yang cukup. Seharusnya masuk nih.?

Bola meluncur menuju lubang tetapi hanya memutar lubang dan melenceng kurang lebih 4 feet ke kiri.

?Aduh!!! Nyaris!?

? Gila! Tee shot sejauh 300 yard, pantulan yang buruk ke rough, pukulan mantap menuju lubang tapi melenceng sedikit sejauh 40 yard dan melakukan putt terbaik yang saya bisa ternyata masih gagal juga.?

A Quick Guide to Online Gaming Forums

Anything that affects a large chunk of the world population almost always gives way to a support group with members ready to share tips, discuss problems, make friends, and simply hang out together where their primary concern – or passion – in life is also the focal interest of the group. And that’s what an online gaming forum basically is: a support group made by, for, and of online gamers.

Why Online Gaming Forums Are Made

Founding or organizing members behind online gaming forums have certain reasons or goals for creating an online center for people that share their interest, and these reasons can also be seen as benefits of joining online gaming forums.

(Live) Information Exchange – Although there are various websites which you can find online providing the information you seek about a particular online game, you’ll find more detailed information in online gaming forums. You can also ask additional questions pertaining to the topic and expect almost instant replies from other members who are online as well.

Reliving the Moment – Say, for instance, you’re a booklover. Don’t you find it incredibly pleasant to discuss old and new favorites, talking about the scenes that you loved most, the characters that you can’t get enough of, plots that still haven’t failed in boggling your minds, and endings that you absolutely hated? That’s just another thing that you can do in online gaming forums: talk about your favorite online gaming moments – even if it’s just something as simple as winning the jackpot at the craps table – and know that the people you’re talking to won’t feel exasperated. Why would they when they feel exactly the same as you do about online gaming?

New Friends and Companions – An online gaming forum is also the best place you can go to if you wish to meet new friends who share similar interests with you – in this case, that would be online gaming. People you meet in forums is usually an interesting mix with members coming from all parts of the world, and all walks of life.

Other Perks and Privileges – Registering membership in an online gaming forum can gain you access to exclusive features of the forum, and occasionally receive bonus perks and privileges of all sorts that can only enrich your online gaming experience.

If and when you do join an online gaming forum, however, make sure that you carefully read the terms and conditions of membership before signing up. Secondly, always treat other members with courtesy and respect. Have fun at your new virtual chill out place!
