(golf, slang, humorous, derogatory) The situation when a player is spraying the golf ball all over the golf course in different directions.

I play army golf; right, left, right, left from one side of the course to the other. More than I would like, I hit the ball into shrubs or trees rather than into the generous mowed areas of grass.
Origin: The term stems from the army marching cadence: left-right-left. In other words, a golfer hits one shot to the left, the next to the right, and very few of them straight. Origin information sourced from Wiktionary contributors (CC BY-SA 4.0).
