Not much of a golfer, in fact I have only been 4 times. However, last weekend I went golfing and realized how much golf fits the stereotypes of what it means to be a man.
Self reliance
Everything is about "shooting"
"Hunting" for your ball
Beer consumption
Cussing when 'your clubs fail you'
Driving miniature cars over miniature mountains
Bragging rights go to the person not who can putt or chip but who can hit the ball the farthest
Being able to judge distances well
Moving in a pack
All it lacks is slapping one another on the butt and golf seems to fit every male stereotype I can consider.
