Bob recently turned 90.
He's played golf every day since he retired at age 65 and has always loved the game.
Then one day he came home looking very dejected and said to his wife "I'm giving that stupid game away".
"What's wrong Bob?" asked Ethel his wife, "you love golf"...
"Yeah I know" replied Bob "but me eyesight has got that bad I can't see the bloody ball when I hit it anymore".
Ethel turned to him and said "Why don't you take my brother with you - he has excellent eyesight"!
Bob looked at her and said "Are you daft woman? Your brother is 104!!"
"I know" she said, "but his eyesight is spot on and you play with a cart anyway. Why don't you give it a go?"
Bob reluctantly agrees and, the next day he's out on the first tee with Ethel's brother.
Bob settles himself, clears his mind, and swings so hard he nearly takes the cover clean off the ball...
"Did you see where it went?" Bob asks.
"Of course I saw where it went" replied Ethel's brother. "I have excellent eyesight you know".
"Great!" says Bob. Let's go get it!
"Ethel's brother looks at Bob for a few seconds and says..... "Let's go get what??"
