I couldn't agree more. Giving the most unmartial of games such a warlike and gruesome origin is a stroke of comic genius. The obvious implication is that the traditional golfing outfit of ludicrous patterned sweaters, chequered plus-fours and a jaunty bag of a hat are, in fact, descended from those brightly coloured clothes so beloved of hobbits.
