"Let it develop!" or "Wait for it..." after dogging a shot badly
first time i heard that one,i like it!iam sure theres a lot more i havent heard also.
There's also the classic, "you come in here every day?", best served after you win, though you can also use it when ya lose!:sorry:
when i missed a straight shot, my friend said very sincerely "You should have shot that straight instead of trying to bank it.":grin:
Hmm..another golfer in the forum?
Slammin' Sammy Snead liked that expression when hitting the green
with a long iron or a fairway wood.
When a player is stuck heavy and dogs it I always liked.....

Two I've used in recent matches...

When someone says "nice shot" I always like saying "I know, I'm the one who shot it."
When someone breaks bad, ask them "You want me to hold your purse next time?"
When you have a shot you need to stroke the ball quite a bit and you end up doing a stop shot or the cue ball barely moves, start looking around and under the table until someone says...
"what are you looking for", your reply "My stroke, I know it's around here somewhere"
just a few off the top of my head....

When you are trying to see enough of the ball to play a safety or make a good hit, "show me some paint".
I heard it from Jimmy Mataya and have been borrowing that word track ever since.
