It is time to pick your favorites in and around the game of golf. This list includes everything from your favorite golfer to your favorite beverage on the course. I think it will be interesting to see the community lists and how opinions vary on a particular "favorite." Only one rule - you can only have one answer for each item. (I also think a "most hated" list would be fun too.)

Just copy the list and insert your own answers. Who or what is your favorite:
