"Do You Play Golf?" joke

About four or five years ago I was standing in a ticket line at LAX, and a fellow in a line parallel to mine had a golf bag slung over his shoulder. Since the line was long and airline ticketing is a slow process at best, we struck up a conversation. He brightened when I admired his golf bag, and he proudly stated that he was on the PGA Tour. Then he turned to me and asked the question all golfers ask: "Do you play?"
I shook my head, "I used to, but I quit because I wasn't very good. I shot consistently in the low seventies."
There was a long, low in-take of breath, then "The low seventies?"
"Yes," I admitted.
"Consistently?" he queried admiringly.
"Every hole," I confessed.
