Bad Bananas

We all hit a bit of a banana now and again. Embrace the shape and play the line. Peel one off the fairway next time you play. Because let’s be honest — the perfect straight shot is a rare creature. Most of us are out there carving a gentle curve through the sky, watching the ball drift right like it’s following its own mysterious plan. And that’s part of the beauty of the game. The banana isn’t a mistake; it’s a personality. It’s the shot that keeps golf honest, keeps you laughing, and keeps your playing partners guessing which tree you’re aiming around this time. So don’t fight it — work with it. Aim a little left, let the curve do its thing, and watch that beautiful arc glide back toward the fairway like it meant to do it all along. The banana shot has saved more rounds than it has ruined, and every golfer who’s played long enough knows the secret: sometimes the shape is the shot.
