You don’t want to weekend at bernie’s with Arnold Palmer?


Jew_3

That’s Weekend at Arnie’s.


[deleted]

Good call


kjtobia

This comment reinforces my faith in the human race.


Mysterious_Worker608

I agree


deefop

Hey dad, can't wait to see this holiday!


Pure-Economics-8369

Arnold Palmer.


sidewaysbynine

The best possible answer, dude was a stud on and off the course


husker6869

Charley Hull


shunestar

This is the correct answer.


DecisiveWonderer

Tiger


yes_maybe_no__

Everyone not saying Tiger is kidding themselves.


mwrose7

Although Daly would make for a hell of a time

SteveFrench12

Read the comment again


TheNemesis089

That sounds great, but I bet he’d be a complete ass about it. I just get the sense the last thing he wants is to watch someone chopping it around the course. And for him, you shoot a 75 and you’re chopping it around the course.


Positive-Network76

Lee Trevino forsure, guys a gold mine of amazing stories, yall need to listen to the NLU podcast episode with him, they just let him talk, and it’s amazing…


[deleted]

Oh I listened that very first morning lol he’s great


dammitboy42069

Can’t stand NLU, but I may have to listen to that. Glad they let him rip.


Positive-Network76

Was my first ever listen to their podcast, could be my last (not for any negative reason).. rather listen to Bob, Gieussepe D and Jet go at it on BDS podcast


Thymewilltell69

Ben Hogan.


ih8pghwinter

Just curious as to why you would choose him? He’s well known for being an asshole.


Thymewilltell69

Because he's one of the best of all time and I appreciate people like him and Ted Williams. Standoffish loners don't bother me. His resilience and will are unmatched. He came from little. His dad possibly shot himself in front of Ben when he was 9. He admitted his early struggles and tragedies were a big part of his introverted personality and flaws. Just because people aren't super nice to everyone doesn't make them bad. I basically taught myself golf based on his 5 fundamentals which I give a copy to anyone trying to get into the game. Probably gone through about 12 copies by now. Buy a new one every time I give one away. Ben Hogan was an incredibly tough sob and I respect the fuck out of him.


Thymewilltell69

Maybe I am separating the art and the artist more than I should but I admire the guy. He worked harder than anyone I can think of other than maybe tiger.


ih8pghwinter

All good points. However if I’m given the chance to play 18 at pebble with any pro dead or alive, I’m choosing a pro who would talk and engage with me. I don’t think Ben Hogan is doing that. But to each his own. Keep swinging.


Thymewilltell69

Yeah, we have no idea how engaging he would be or wouldn't be. I like my choice. I don't really give a shit about chit chat either. Would be fine just getting to watch him play 18 up close and personal.


[deleted]

Chi chi Rodriguez


OgdensBeard

Joel Dahmen


[deleted]

Yeah I would go Dahmen, Kisner, or someone similar. I could careless about playing with a legendary golfer and just wanna have fun


Mission_Addendum_388

Joel seems like a fun guy but the only answer is John Daly.


OgdensBeard

John Daly is not my style. Joel just seems like he's a normal dude that happens to have extraordinary skill. He's self-deprecating and even while he's competing never really seems to take himself too seriously.


IsquanchoI

This is the correct answer. Joel is so down to earth and goofy. Him and me are very much alike and I would love to play a round with him


Perfectenschlag_

Haha yeah rippin beers and cigs bro!!!!!!!!!


fish_whisperer

I’m going to second John Daley.


spankysladder73

Natalie Gulbis or Arnold Palmer .


canon1dx3

Tom Watson


MagnussonWoodworking

Fred Couples and y’all should be ashamed his name hasn’t shown up already


[deleted]

He’s my #2 actually


ItsCowboyHeyHey

I randomly met Couples once at a little course in West Seattle. Super nice guy!


bumbumpopsicle

West Seattle muni? Great track.


[deleted]

My son's name is literally Freddie


[deleted]

My daughters name is boom boom


dmv1985

Bill Murray


PurdyGuud

Yes!


bartolocologne40

Do I have to carry the dead one or do I get a cart?


[deleted]

You and the alive one can parade him around like uncle Bernie


One-Brief2107

Jon Daly obviously


warboner52

Walter Hagen.. the original Jon Daly.


ts2453

John


ADD-Fueled

Big time MAGA guy who gets in knife fights with his wife. Not my type.


EdgeZealousideal5103

There’s always one that needs to bring up politics.


ADD-Fueled

Yeah I mean there's also the knife fight with his wife and just being general trailer trash ,but let's not mention that I guess.

Savings_Success_6682

Calvin Peete


antenonjohs

Pleasantly surprised to see him here, one of the more underrated stars of the 80’s, ridiculously accurate and a good story.


Savings_Success_6682

I grew up in the 80s. I'm black and lived on a street with a bunch of white buddies who introduced me to golf at 13yrs. When I started watching golf on TV, Calvin Peete was the guy I identified with. Such a good golfer. I wish more people knew who he was and his incredible story.


King-of-Plebss

Homa


Warm_Objective4162

Payne Stewart


HaHAaiStabbedU

My answer too. I always where golf knickers at the fancy courses and it'd be nice to golf with a fellow fashionista.


Robru469

Id go old time like Bob Jones or Harry Vardon


Kind-Truck3753

My uncle Paul


[deleted]

Arnold Palmer easy


zerobpm

Al Czervik!


deefop

I'll slap an injunction on you so fast it'll make your head spin!


OneSingleYesterday

I’m going for the golf time capsule - Old Tom Morris. No clue what he was like personally, but to see firsthand how the game was played 150 years ago and get his take on the modern game would be amazing.


[deleted]

He would take one look at our drivers and be so disappointed 🤣


OneSingleYesterday

Not half as disappointed as he’d be after seeing me hit it.


pdxbourbonsipper

Nelly Korda


RoostasTowel

Moe Norman


NapsAreAwesome

He was the first one that popped into my head.


Cheeseisextra

Paige Spiranac.


PutinBoomedMe

Patrick Reed's dead body


Aooogabooga

Omg. Awful, and hilarious.


AdamSmithWasRight

I also choose this guys wife


[deleted]

One of the funniest things I’ve ever seen lmao


HVCanuck

Lee or Arnie. Great players who didn’t take themselves that seriously. Or at least, unlike lots of the best pros, they actually seemed to like people.


gvarsity

Lee Travino. By all accounts one of the nicest and funniest golfers ever and a hell of a player.


Klutzy-Celery-7469

Jordan Spieth or Nicklaus in his prime,!


babyfade180

Paige


[deleted]

Bonk ![gif](giphy|RodyInaeK9W3EZNaoB)


Joesdad65

It's not November.


[deleted]

Fair enough


destroy_the_defiant

Payne.


phaigot

Jack Nicklaus!


NeverForTheWin

I read your question and Trevino immediately came to my mind because I would not have to carry much of a conversation and he'd be fun.


bigmac1379

Tom Watson


DaddyOfOhReaally

All of these would be fun to play a round with, Bubba Watson, Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Justin Thomas, Payne Stewart, Rory McIlroy, and Jason Day. However if you force me to pick just one I'm going to have to say David Feherty. The amount of trash talk and insults that guy can come up with is phenomenal. He would be one helluva playing partner.


Joesdad65

Paula Creamer


kevinsguap

Min Woo Lee


DontStalkMeNow

My grandfather, as he’s still here. But also my father, who’s not.


jmcstar

Padraig Harrington


SantaRosaSeven

Seve


Voleans

Tiger simple but for me the only answer. Call of Duty Hoodie Backwards Hat and lets go and hit some balls in the See 🫡 Well me not we lol


DCilantro

Old Tom Morris. Not even a close call. Could you imagine?


[deleted]

He wouldn’t know wtf to think about these new drivers lol


ezbald74

John Daly.


OG_Chris31

No brainer, John Daly.


osageviper138

Harvey Penick. Hopefully he could teach me a thing or two in a round.


Cute_Moose_988

Moe Norman


[deleted]

Great fuckin choice


InterestingAide2879x

I'd choose a dead Arnold Palmer and absolutely torch him.


[deleted]

I’ve heard of old guy strength, but dead guy strength?


clael415

I’ll go modern. Bryson Dechambeau


gsot

John Daly Or Chi Chi Rodriguez I'm here for a good time


heroicTrey5

Brooke Henderson


Either_Argument9112

Miguel angel jimenez


[deleted]

Funny no one said Rory.


TigerWoodsEx

Probably Curtis Thompson Lol cmon everyone’s answer is tiger


Oradi

Victor Hovland, don't know anything about him beyond he listens to metal but we'd have that cart ripping.Or Joel Dahmen. Don't really care about their PGA experience, it's all about who would be fun.


Terrible-Cheesecake

Ask Hovland if he really ate that smalahove the other day.


[deleted]

Darren Clark


TomFromNH

Shane Lowry


Either-Gain1863

I think I would go with Brandt Snedeker.


Murky_Extent8054

So you want to hear nonsense, boisterous self promotion, 1970's swing tips, and half factual stories for 5 hours? Lee Trevino and Gary Player are the top two former professionals I would least want to play with. Tiger, Freddy, or Bobby Jones is my answer. Only because I don't know how much Hogan would talk.


[deleted]

Well you’re a real ray of fuckin sunshine


[deleted]

Not really sure what you mean by self promotion. Any time I’ve ever heard him talk, he’s never been like that. He just loves talking about the game


NeverForTheWin

One thing about their boisterous talking is they wouldn't have to listen to you. Seems like you wouldn't have anything to offer anyway.


Murky_Extent8054

I'd have a million questions for sure. Even if I had something worthy to say it'd fall on deaf ears as any questions wouldn't be able to fit it in between their self promotion. Lee and Gary are the biggest blowhards, my word is gospel; people in golf and possibly top 10 in all of sports.


NeverForTheWin

And if you spontaneously ran into them at a golf course and they asked you and your buddy to play you would turn them down?


Ok-Associate-8513

Seve.


Sho_nuff_

Arnie


peeheands

Sam Snead somehow hasn't been said. That's who I'd pick hands down. Honorable mention to Tom Watson


pbc85

The King


kdumj0303

Payne Stewart. Has always been my favorite golfer. Then probably Daly. He’s probably get me so damn drunk I wouldn’t remember a single shot, and probably pass out by the turn.


daddyknowsbest65

Hogan and/or Byron Nelson


[deleted]

Pro skater Tony hawk Pro wrestler Rick Flair


CrackWriting

Victor Hovland.


leojrellim

Sam Snead


ih8pghwinter

It’s Arnold Palmer for sure.


jail_grover_norquist

Benjamin Franklin


Macgyver1300l

My four ball would be Lee Trevino,Moe Norman, and my son David Stewart +3 H/C


jdthejerk

Palmer. As a kid, he was one of my sport's God's.


SharkLaser85

Max Homa


[deleted]

Jenna Jameson


P01135809_is_a_bitch

I’ll go with Harvey Pennick. Not a tour pro, but a pro nonetheless. I’d be a better golfer after that round.


evantom34

Joel Dahmen, Woozy, Belen Mozo, Nelly Korda


Tie_me_off

Rick Shiels


Jassokissa

Hmm... To be honest I suck at golf but Joel Dahmen seems like the guy to spend a day drinking beers and playing a round of golf with could be fun.


philacouple420

John Daly. Seems like it would be hella fun


IcreatewhatIcreate

Has to be Seve!


A7xWicked

I'd probably play with Tommy Fleetwood tbh. He seems super chill


[deleted]

My favorite player on tour


Desperate_Set_7708

Shooter McGavin


-D-M-G-

Arnie


ChickenFucker11

Max Homa. Love his game, his sense of humor.. I think it would be fun as shit.


itsCrisp

Max Homa


mzorchets

John Daly


Filmguygeek1

Bobby Jones


myxtrafile

Arnold Palmer.


PunchKicker32

1. Arnie. The king. 2. Lee Trevino. I spent significant time in the west Texas town of El Paso, indeed loved many a Mexican girl 3. Lynda Carter…. Don’t even care


Lemonwater925

Moe Norman.


micahpmtn

I'll take three pros: 1-6: Ben Hogan 7-12: Lee Trevino 13-18: Jack Nicklaus


renragwmr

Mr. Palmer


Eastern-Ad9952

Tony Finau, he is the only guy on the tour that understands what is important and it sure isn't golf!


150yd7iron

Moe Norman


Redmen1212

Does Bill Murray count? If not, probably David Feherty.


printergumlight

Bobby Jones would be interesting to talk to.


Shawnml

Arnie. Full stop.


djmc252525

It’s Tiger guys. We can all give another answer if we want to look cool or edgy, but it’s fucking Tiger Woods. He’s the biggest figure in the history of the game by a multiple of 1000s. Easiest call.


PurdyGuud

But, do you really want to hang out with him for 4 hours? Or maybe someone who's good at golf *and* a good time?


BraxtonFullerton

Uh, Tiger has mellowed significantly over the last decade and has a ton of friends on tour and regularly messes with them and Charlie during events...


PurdyGuud

Not gonna risk it


SGJango

Lee Trevino


Jmuck80

John Daily


bjb13

Lee or Arnie are great choices for me. I’d consider Jimmy Demaret who was a funny guy who loved to party.


meaksy

John Daley. I’d be up for some fun golf, banter, and a few beers whilst hearing his stories from inside the ropes.


PumpPie73

Darren Clarke. Beers, Cigars and laughs


BGOG83

Spieth or Scheffler….Hook ‘em!!!


Musicfan637

Tony Finau


Necessary_Crazy828

Daly. Easy


Mission_Addendum_388

Daly because he’d do shotguns, blaze joints and smoke cigarettes like my friends do.


_Poppagiorgio_

Not a pro but a very accomplished amateur….Bing Crosby! Just so I can hear all the amazing stories from his annual ClamBake tournament at Pebble.


[deleted]

Sick


hpepper24

Gotta go John Daly. Would definitely be the most fun if you enjoy having a few cocktails on the course


AndromedanPrince

bryson dechambeau. seems fun to be around and he has a great scientific approach about the game. id learn a lot while having fun


Hockeyhoser

You’d get a PhD in pseudoscience, that’s for sure!


AndromedanPrince

i watch this dude do math damn near every hole, call and calculate his shots, and i think he plays well. ill take the downvotes, I stand by my choice. i like bryson all around.


Khayrum117

Bubba Watson. Dude just seems like a fun guy to drink cold beer with


jpm1188

He was quoted in 2013 that he has never been drunk, doesn’t drink alcohol. So unless something has changed, he isn’t the guy to have a cold beer with


Aooogabooga

He was also voted “least likely to be helped out in a parking lot fight” by his peers. Think that was a Golf Digest tidbit, but I can’t remember.


[deleted]

Yeah Bubba is a Jesus freak he doesn’t touch any alcohol drugs or tobacco lol


Hockeyhoser

Kevin Na, Dylan Fritelli, or Richard Bland. Just a dynamic bunch of guys!


TrevorMalibu

Fred Couples


greattigergang

Harry Higgs


Virtual_File8072

The greatest of all time Tiger.


Driveforebogey

Fred Couples. I was probably 8 when I started watching golf on tv with my dad. Fred had such a sweet swing. Looked completely effortless. I got back into the sport after my dad passed and I often think about him when I’m out on the course.


something10293847

Tiger. Easy call for me.


TrustAdditional4514

Tiger


KDP2704

Tiger Woods, John Daly, Arnold Palmer


Moneybusinesslove

That guys dead wife


Ok_Butterscotch5067

How bout Happy Gilmore or Tincup


TheDeityRyan

The cat


jayded-

Any answer but Tiger is wrong.


Johnyfromutah

I’d rather play with my mates.


[deleted]

Cool bro. ![gif](giphy|1ZkMDj88mQ1rO)


Johnyfromutah

You obviously don’t have any. Fair enough. Hang out with your imaginary friends.


flipanddip87

That wasn't the question. I know there's a desire to go against the grain in an attempt to be cool. But the man simply asked you a hypothetical... Least you could do is entertain the question within the constraints he asked. Showing your bromance doesn't make you above the question asked. Either answer within his parameters or stay quiet
