Buckle Up for a Hilarious Look at Weekend Warriors on the Green: Unveiling Toby Keith’s “Shitty Golfer”
Country music legend Toby Keith is known for his anthems about American life, often with a touch of redneck humor. In 2017, he took a hilarious detour with the release of “Shitty Golfer,” a song that lovingly pokes fun at the weekend warriors who grace the course with more enthusiasm than skill.
While there’s no official backstory on the song’s creation, it perfectly captures the lighthearted camaraderie (and occasional frustration) that defines a casual round of golf with friends. Keith, an avid golfer himself, likely knows this world well.
“Shitty Golfer” isn’t meant to be mean-spirited. It’s a celebration of the joy of the game, regardless of score. The song humorously depicts a group of buddies with mismatched equipment, questionable swing techniques, and a penchant for losing balls in the most peculiar places.
Get ready for lines about questionable attire, topped-off coolers, and the inevitable slice (a hooked shot that goes way off course to the right). Keith throws in some playful jabs at the etiquette-obsessed country club set, making “Shitty Golfer” an anthem for anyone who enjoys a laugh on the course – especially if that laugh is directed at themselves.
So, if you’ve ever shanked a drive into the woods, three-putted for a bogey, or shown up to the course in yesterday’s clothes, “Shitty Golfer” is your song. It’s a reminder that golf is about more than birdies and eagles. It’s about spending time with friends, enjoying some friendly competition, and maybe even having a cold one (or two) along the way.
