Here's a Jewish golfing joke. I bet no one knows of another one!

A Rabbi loves playing golf, and one Saturday morning he doesn't have to
take the Sabbath service in the synagogue. So he decides that he'll sin
just this once. He packs his clubs into the car and drives to a far away
golf course where he won't meet anyone he knows.

As he is playing his round Moses turns to G-d in Heaven and says "Do you
see what this Rabbi is doing! Don't you think you should punish him?" G-d
agrees that the Rabbi must be punished.

On the course, the Rabbi reaches the 10th hole, a 587 yard par 5. He tees
up the ball and hits his drive. As he does a great wind swells up and
sweeps that ball down the fairway. It bounces and bounces and bounces
until it runs up onto the green and into the hole.

In Heaven Moses turns to G-d and says, "I thought you were going to
punish him?" And G-d replies, "I did, who can he tell."

I play at the Jewish club in Ottawa (Rideau View). We don't get Mulligans,
we get Cohen's

Same joke -- but on Yom Kippur -- may be funnier.
