A golf excuse for aiming at next week’s hole
The punchline imagines that your shot was accurate on a different schedule. Instead of explaining why the ball missed today’s target, it quietly moves the target into next week. That makes the line a course-condition alibi with an absurdly helpful calendar attached. It works as a compact reversal: a miss becomes advance preparation, and the course has simply failed to catch up with the plan.
When to use the joke
Try it after finishing on the wrong part of the green, especially when your playing partners can see exactly where you were meant to aim. Pointing out the imaginary future target is enough to set up the joke. The supplied line is short enough to share without a lengthy account of the entire hole.
