Dear Abby

Hole-in-one custom has golfers teed off

DEAR ABBY: About the custom that a hole-in-one golfer buy drinks for everyone, I’ve had a lot of experience with that. My first four holes in one were made when I was underage, so going into a bar was out of the question. My first hole in one (age 21) cost me $43 in drinks, and each time after that cost about SSO. Once, when the clubhouse was crowded, my bar bill was more than SIOO that’s when I said, “No more!” But to celebrate my 100th hole in one, I popped for a bottle of champagne for my foursome. To answer your question, Abby, if a golfer can afford to buy drinks for a clubhouse full of golfers, fine—but it would make more sense if the lucky golfer were rewarded instead. SCOTT PALMER, LOS ANGELES

DEAR SCOTT: Great Scott! A hundred holes in one! I never would have believed it had you not enclosed positive proof: 1. A congratulatory letter from Jack Nicklaus (1983). 2. Areprint from the 1988 Guinness Book of World Records stating: “The greatest number of holes in one reported in one career is 98 held by Scott Palmer of Los Angeles.” (Since then, Palmer has added two more.) 3. A photocopy of “Ripley’s Believe It or Not” (1984), which stated: “Between Feb. 17,1983, and March 6,1984, Scott Palmer of San Diego made 24 holes in one same ball.” By the way, Scott is not related to Arnie Palmer.

Abigail Van Buren

who has had two holes in one, I refuse to buy drinks for the golf population in the clubhouse. I will buy one drink each for those I’m playing with. My husband, who has had six holes in one at various clubs, concurs. NANCY H. DIVOLL, BELLOWS FALLS, VT. DEAR ABBY: I think the custom of requiring a golfer who gets a hole in one to buy drinks for everyone is absurd. Two years ago, one of our members made a hole in one during a tournament, and it cost him more than $500.1 had one last year and it was no big deal. On the way home, I asked my partner if he wanted a drink, and he said yes, so I pulled up in front of a market and bought him a Coke from the machine out in front. HAROLD F. MOKLER, SCOTTSDALE, ARIZ. DEAR ABBY: I got a hole in one last November. The feeling was indescribable! I couldn’t buy drinks for anybody because the club I belong to down here doesn’t have a liquor license. J. LESLIE ST. PIERRE, BRADENTON, FLA.

DEAR ABBY: I’ve made five holes in one. The first one was such a thrill, I bought drinks for everyone. After that, a hole in one got to be “hohum,” so I bought a badly needed sprinkler system for the golf club, telling those who asked, that’s where their drink is! MARGIE EMERSON, CATHEDRAL CITY, CALIF. * * * DEAR ABBY: According to you, dropping in on people without calling first is a crime. We don’t happen to feel that way. In fact, my husband and I plead guilty to that “crime,” but let me explain our reasoning. We figure if we call first to say we are coming, our friends will go to a lot of extra trouble, and we don’t want that. If we get there and they are not all that glad to see us, we can always leave. I know that you do not approve of dropping in, but I’ll bet most of your readers feel as we do. “DROP-INS” ♦ * * DEAR ABBY: Recently you printed a letter from “Albany Grandmother,” who said that she had waited two months for an acknowledgment from her granddaughter to whom she had sent a check for Christmas. When she called to inquire about it, the girl said, “For goodness sakes, Gram, all you have to do is look through your canceled checks from the bank!” Abby, please tell that grandmother to find that canceled check, frame it and mail it to the ingrate of a granddaughter with a note saying, “Hang this on your wall; it’s the last check you’ll see from Gram.” CINDI FROM NEW ORLEANS
