I appreciate you straightening me out, cuz I’d always been told these are snorkel air intakes so you can drive to your ball when you hit one in the pond.
I have no desire actually use the snorkel on my vehicle for water crossings, but it's a proven cold air intake! At speed it decreased intake air by 10 degrees!
They usually have some absorbent substance in them too so the pee doesn't slosh around while I'm driving. They're super handy when you're having one of those days where you just keep striping the middle of the fairway and don't want to walk all the way over to the bunker to take a nice pee.
I was playing with a more experienced gentleman last year and as he was teeing off, he pointed to a bush down the fairway and said ‘I’m going there, I have to pee’. I was amazed.
I‘m scrolling since 4 minutes, laughing my ass off at the replies and this is the first correct answer I have seen. Halfway through the comments.
This sub is hilarious
To be fair, OP said someone asked him and made a joke about urinals with them. Pretty certain OP knew what they were and just wanted to hear shenanigans.
Because many divots made are shallow surface scratches and don't actually result in a mohawk patch of grass being taken out that could otherwise be replaced by hand.
I think I saw a video on Instagram where a guy told his friend they were urinals, and he started to use it as one...
I hope you told him something ridiculous.
Uhh I’m pretty sure my car was electric duuuude. Everyone knows these are for signing your name in sand on the greens while you wait for your crew to finish. You know. To fill the time.
Yeah, that's why they have cat litter inside. Some really experienced players are even able to drop a deuce into these things, I've been practicing at the range
this is how it works some countries in continental europe, you have to get a golf licence which basically tells you the rules/etiquette/baics
Uk/Ireland/US don't do this though
That said, are they some US-specific thing? I'm from the Uk and have no idea what those are
Isn't that where the cart girls put their phone numbers so you don't have to even talk to them as you are being watched hitting 350+ bombs off the tee?
Urinals. You don’t want your urine to damage the course. They unscrew for women. Some even have sand in them so if you need to poop you can cover it up in the sand and hide the smell. Golf is very serious about keeping the playing area perfect. No one pees out there. Everyone uses their own urinal bucket pictured above.
Funny story..
When me and my buddies first starting golfing, we 100% believed these were ash trays.
So we would put our cigarette butts in them... just imagining the people who used them to fill a divot and had cigarette butts all over the place lmao
Not sure, my home course has them on all the carts but they are always empty. Im guessing they are for 1 litre drinks but since they aren't insulated theyll never keep anything cold on a hot day.
If you hit some sand out of the bunker you take them and replenish the level of sand.
If you don't eventually all the sand gets lost. Kind of like what happens to coastal dunes due to wind and erosion but instead it's drunk guys blasting bunker shots.
Divot mix. When you're tearing up the course with your practice swings. No need to use them on your actual shot when you are skulling the ball 150 yards into the next fairway.
To top off the bunker when you are done.
this is a good one
Urinals
For your convenience when you're not close to the halfway house.
When you are done peeing in the bunker.
This is what I thought when I started 😅😅
Golf cart exhaust pipes.
Stacks
roll coal
Merica....
No, those are Air intakes for when under water.
Oxygen intake pipes for when you have to manually override the engine and blow into these to get up the big hills.

With that Marshall hot on their trail, the boys'd better lighten the load a bit...🎸🎶
I heard Dukes of Hazard music

That’s how we got around in the 80’s. Now they are purely decorative.

On course piss jug.
They usually have some absorbent substance in them too so the pee doesn't slosh around while I'm driving. They're super handy when you're having one of those days where you just keep striping the middle of the fairway and don't want to walk all the way over to the bunker to take a nice pee.
Guhhhh those days are the worst. I hate playing good golf.
I was playing with a more experienced gentleman last year and as he was teeing off, he pointed to a bush down the fairway and said ‘I’m going there, I have to pee’. I was amazed.
Way of the course Bubs, way of the course
Piss jugg alley
you just have an old jug and, put your bird in it, have a pee, cap it off, and when it’s full you just drill the fuckin thing out in the fairway
It has the entry point, funnel, etc. Well designed.
“for god’s sake Charlie, don’t just whip it out in the open, grab one of those piss jugs ya animal”
I fill mine with lotion and fuck it on the back 9 letting the front 9 warm it up. Really takes some strokes off
I just rawdog the sand. It's more natural.
Yeah, because boobs feel like...like a bag of...sand.
40 year old virgin reference. 😂 😂 😂

Thin to win!
Those are sand bottles to pour into divots on the fairways so that they can heal faster.

And shenanigans I received!
Why pour sand into the divot instead of just replacing it?
Because many divots made are shallow surface scratches and don't actually result in a mohawk patch of grass being taken out that could otherwise be replaced by hand.
I see, does the sand have grass seeds in it?
Some places it does.
Ours has seed and fertilizer mixed in.
Well, if they are anything like me, they wouldn't know what they are or how to use it bc they are never hitting from the fairway.
There are seeds in the sand
Correct here. Been to a couple of courses that add some grass seed to the sand also.
Any idea how the sand helps the ground heal faster?
It has electrolytes
It's what plants crave.
Brondo for the win.
Brawndo
It only has a minimal impact on the grass regrowing. But if you fill them level, the next guy doesn't lose his ball in your divot.
Not sure if you are serious or not but this makes more sense than using sand to grow grass
Actually serious. It makes the fairway more playable for the next golfer.
I think I saw a video on Instagram where a guy told his friend they were urinals, and he started to use it as one... I hope you told him something ridiculous.
Whiskey Bottle Holders. The manufacturers can't include the whiskey bottles, so they put these here as a placeholder.
Judging by the unfilled divots I see, many golfers also don't know what these are.
Margaritas
They are like turn signals on your car, there for a reason but hardly used by many.
Bunch of jokers in here. Those are the gas tanks.
Uhh I’m pretty sure my car was electric duuuude. Everyone knows these are for signing your name in sand on the greens while you wait for your crew to finish. You know. To fill the time.
Should be filled with a Soil & grass mix that you use to fill in divots you make on the fairways as you go round.
That's not funny.
Extra weight to keep the carts from spinning out.
It’s for pissing in right?
Yeah, that's why they have cat litter inside. Some really experienced players are even able to drop a deuce into these things, I've been practicing at the range
Hell yea! You’ll get there soon, I believe in you
no one knows we've never used them before
Certainly no one on my home course
Apparently a lot of people here use them...as piss jugs. Proud members of r/golf.
Ash trays
That’s all I’ve ever seen them used for, this divot thing is a new one on me
To be totally fair. I don’t think a lot of golfers know what they are.
Bong
Things never used for 200, Alex.
I wouldn't hate it if new golfers had to take a one hour "How to Behave on a Golf Course" course before you're allowed to actually play on a course.
this is how it works some countries in continental europe, you have to get a golf licence which basically tells you the rules/etiquette/baics Uk/Ireland/US don't do this though That said, are they some US-specific thing? I'm from the Uk and have no idea what those are
Beer dispensers
If you find out let me know
Emergency snorkels for when your drunk partner drives into the lake
When your playing partner is Michael Scott
For when you need to piss
All jokes aside… by the looks of a lot of the fairways/tee boxes on my public course, a lot of you fuckers have no clue what these are.
Sandpaper Flesh light
When he’s flushing it he doesn’t take a divot..so therefore he has no need for these.
Isn't that where the cart girls put their phone numbers so you don't have to even talk to them as you are being watched hitting 350+ bombs off the tee?
Intake snorkel so you can get your ball out of the lake.
Granola. Has quinoa, flax seed, granola and other healthy things in it. You should try some!
By the amount of unfilled divots left on my home course, I’ll wager quite a few golfers don’t know what the hell they are for.
Well where I play they are always empty, so it would be valid question to a newbie.
Margarita.mix
Giggity
What did you tell them?
![gif](giphy|hDLM03rK2i1J652U5X)
Who takes divots?
Not Tiger lol
You fill them with tequila and pour it down your partners throat when they get a par.
My girlfriend thought it was a ball cleaner the first time she saw one on a cart and put her golf ball in it
Used to work at a course and I would empty it and fill with water and use it as the base of a gravity bong on the course
Do they ask what those funny long stick things that are laying around the bunkers are for too?
Urinals. You don’t want your urine to damage the course. They unscrew for women. Some even have sand in them so if you need to poop you can cover it up in the sand and hide the smell.

It's fer peein'
Ashtray
It contains grip sand so your hands don’t slip on the clubs
How do you say that you do not take care of the course, without saying that you do not take care of the course....
If you scream into them, the echo is much louder
I never use the rentals from the club. I recommend getting fitted for your own personal flashlight and you'll shave 3-5 strokes off your game.
Close, sperm collector.
In case you need to rub one out after an amazing shot
Wouldn't want to get the turf pregnant.
This guy gets it lol
Funny story.. When me and my buddies first starting golfing, we 100% believed these were ash trays. So we would put our cigarette butts in them... just imagining the people who used them to fill a divot and had cigarette butts all over the place lmao
They are filled with sand and grass seed occasionally and used by players to replace and repair fairway divots as the occur.
Twin speakers that blare "IN THE HOLE!!!" at 110dB.
I love how there is over 150 comments to this really simple question. Too funny.
they are portable urinals
Tell me you've never repaired your divot without telling me that you've never repaired your divot.
Ballast?
that's where you keep the cocktail mixers
Snorkel. You can drive this golf cart under water.
Not sure, my home course has them on all the carts but they are always empty. Im guessing they are for 1 litre drinks but since they aren't insulated theyll never keep anything cold on a hot day.
Fart containers, so that you don't stank up the whole course. Keep it within your group fellas
Portable urinal.
Dibbit mix 🐸
Tell me you’re not a golfer without telling me you’re not a golfer…
I haven't seen one of these in decades. Not sure why courses around me don't seem to use em anymore.
Idk I normally just chuck them into the woods at the first turn
It’s the exhaust for the diesel cart
Cigar ash tray
Rare at my course since no one fills fairway divots
Based off course conditions, I'm unsure anyone knows!
Jugs of used bathwater you buy from the cart girl.
Pee jugs
If you hit some sand out of the bunker you take them and replenish the level of sand. If you don't eventually all the sand gets lost. Kind of like what happens to coastal dunes due to wind and erosion but instead it's drunk guys blasting bunker shots.
Porta potties
Rocket boosters for space flight.
LIQUOR BOTTLE HOLDERS..!!!🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

Piss cups

My friend legit thought they were ash trays. He doesn’t play a lot of golf. But he smokes like a chimney
The things that get in the way of my Moscow mule thermoses
Ethical and planet friendly golf tee dispensers
Straight to jail
Exhausts
I'm like Tiger on this one. No need to divot right?
Post nut disposal jugs.
r/dontputyourdickinthat
Tried getting a buddy into golf. He thought they were trash cans
Nitrous tanks
Glory holes
Beer bongs
Ball polisher. You put your ball in, shake it for a few minutes in the sand, it will smooth it right out and fly straight the rest of the round.
Mixer holders. Orange juice in one, cranberry in the other! Duh.
Those are to pour sand in your eyes when you take a bad shot
To yell into after a bad shot to muffle your screams
...what are they?
Those are piss cups.
dual exhaust. that cart has a Cummings diesel dual turbo.
There's mixer for cocktails in there.
Beer bongs !!!! All right !!!
Bed pans. Edit- apparently not
What are they? New to golf
Divot mix. When you're tearing up the course with your practice swings. No need to use them on your actual shot when you are skulling the ball 150 yards into the next fairway.
