Who's a Hacker?
By no means is the following exhaustive criteria - it will be updated in the future.
You know you're a Hacker when:
You think "bend your knees and keep your head down" is solid advice.
"Mulligan" is in your vocabulary.
You're more concerned with the beauty of the course than your score.
You mark your ball directly beneath it rather than behind it.
You see nothing un-masculine with a pull cart.
You've occasionally played with an orange or yellow golf ball.
You play with an extra ball in your pocket. (by the way, that's illegal)
You tote a ball retriever.
You think the secret to lower scores is a new driver.
You rarely hear "good shot" after you swing.
You get extremely nervous on the first tee when it's crowded.
You're scared to death of bunker shots.
You subscribe to golf magazines.
You don't ever step foot on a driving range.
You think any bunker shot that lands on the green is a great shot.
You refer to a scramble as "best ball".
You go entire rounds without having to repair a ball mark.
You've had to go in the shop and buy more golf balls intra-round.
Every shot you hit, including putts, goes to the right.
You circle pars on the scorecard.

use a wooden ping driver
How about this...
You're a Hacker if you regularly tee off with a non-driver, e.g. 3-wood, 5-wood, hybrid, or iron.
???
Does that strike a personal chord, seanhalloran?
