Yes or No<\/b><\/p>\n
Professional golfer Tommy Bolt was playing in Los Angeles and had a caddy with a reputation of constant chatter. Before they teed off, Bolt told him, \u201cDon\u2019t say a word to me. And if I ask you something, just answer yes or no.\u201d<\/p>\n
During the round, Bolt found the ball next to a tree, where he had to hit under a branch, over a lake and onto the green. He got down on his knees and looked through the trees and sized up the shot.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you think?\u201d he asked the caddy. \u201cFive-iron?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, Mr. Bolt,\u201d the caddy said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean, not a five-iron?\u201d Bolt snorted. <\/p>\n
\u201cWatch this shot.\u201d<\/p>\n
The caddy rolled his eyes. \u201cNo-o-o, Mr. Bolt.\u201d<\/p>\n
But Bolt hit it and the ball stopped about two feet from the hole. He turned to his caddy, handed him the five-iron and said, \u201cNow what do you think about that? You can talk now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Bolt,\u201d the caddy said, \u201cthat wasn\u2019t your ball.\u201d<\/p>\n
