    There was a man who lost one of his arms in an accident. He became very depressed because he had loved to play Golf. One day in his despair, he decided to commit suicide. He got on an elevator and went to the top of a building to jump off. He was standing on the ledge looking down and saw this man skipping along, whistling and kicking up his heels. He looked closer and saw that this man didn't have any arms at all. He started thinking, what am I doing up here feeling sorry for myself, I still have one good arm to do things with. There goes a man with no arms skipping down the sidewalk so happy, and going on with his life. He hurried down and caught up with the man with no arms. He told him how glad he was to see him because he had lost one of his arms and felt ugly and useless and was going to kill himself. He thanked him again for saving his life and he knew he could make it with one arm if that guy could go on with no arms. The man with no arms began dancing and whistling and kicking up his heels again He asked, 'Why are you so happy anyway?' He said, 'I'm NOT happy. My Balls are itching!!!

      My neighbour only has one arm, I saw him loading some golf clubs into the boot of his car the other week. I assume he was going off to play rather than to dump or sell them.

      Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

          At one point while I was in the service my right shoulder was badly dislocated and I was in a full upper body cast that kept my left arm totally immobilized and me off the duty roster for two months. I put the time to good use and taught myself to play pool one-handed. I ended up coming in fourth in the company competition. :)

                    One of my OICs was death on hands-in-pockets. "Are your hands cold, Sergeant Wojcik?" "No, ma'am. My balls itch." Luckily, she and I got along well together. ;P

                      It's a bitch, but yes you can play one armed. The strength in your drive comes from your torso, hips, stomach, and weight shift, the arms/hands just lend it more control.
