Here's one. A golfer sliced his ball into a field of cows. As he was looking for it, he noticed one of the cows chewing something. He walked up to it and said, 'Hey, that's my ball you've got there!'

There's a classic golf joke. A man is teaching his wife to play golf. She takes a swing and the ball goes way off to the left. He says, 'That's okay, dear, you're just opening up your stance a bit too much.' She takes another swing and the ball goes way off to the right. He says, 'Now you're closing your stance too much.' On her third swing, the ball goes straight into a nearby pond. She turns to him and says, 'Well, at least I'm consistent!' This joke shows the different experiences between beginners and more experienced golfers, and how we can find humor in the learning process.
