Let’s be honest—golf isn’t just a hobby. It’s an obsession. If you’ve ever found yourself whispering sweet nothings to your putter or practicing your swing in the grocery store checkout line, you might have a serious case of golf addiction. But don’t worry—you’re not alone. Here are three undeniable symptoms that you (or someone you love) are fully hooked on the greatest game ever played.
1. Your Calendar Revolves Around Tee Times
Birthdays, anniversaries, work meetings… they all take a backseat to your Saturday morning tee time. Your calendar is color-coded, but only for the important things—like your next round, upcoming golf trip, and the local club championship. Rain in the forecast? You’re already calculating the odds of getting at least nine holes in before the storm rolls through.
🚩 Red Flag Moment: You’ve considered calling in sick to work because the course is finally offering twilight rates again.
2. You Have More Golf Gear Than Regular Clothes
If your closet looks like a pro shop exploded, you might have a problem. Golf polos in every shade of blue? Check. Five different putters because you’re “still searching for the right feel”? Of course. A drawer dedicated to golf gloves (including that one “lucky” glove that’s practically falling apart)? Absolutely.
🚩 Red Flag Moment: Your significant other has to remind you that dress codes exist outside of the golf course.
3. Every Conversation Somehow Becomes About Golf
Your coworkers are talking about their weekend, and somehow, you’re telling them about the time you almost broke 80. Friends discussing a new restaurant? You casually mention that it’s just down the road from a course with impeccable greens. You hear someone say “birdie” in reference to actual wildlife, and now you’re explaining how your short game is finally coming together.
🚩 Red Flag Moment: You have successfully convinced a non-golfer to “just come to the driving range once” and now they, too, are considering a membership.
There’s No Cure—But There Is a Solution
Let’s face it—once golf gets into your system, there’s no turning back. The only thing you can do is lean into it. So why not make every round even better? A remote-controlled electric golf push cart from Cart Tek lets you focus on your game without lugging your clubs around. Walk the course, enjoy the scenery, and feed your golf addiction in style.
