golfing & buttercups

There were these two best friends out playing golf one beautiful day.
After hitting their tee shots, both noticed that neither was even
close to the fairway. One friend hit it way left, the other way right.
They decided that since the shots were so bad, they'd just meet up at
the hole.
So the first guy went off and looked and looked and finally found his
ball sitting down deep in a field of beautiful Buttercups.
He promptly pulled out his 7 iron and started whacking away.
Buttercups were flying everywhere, but the ball wouldn't come out.
Well, finally Mother Nature got mad.
She came up from the ground and said to the man, "I've created this
beautiful field of Buttercups and you have no respect for them at all,
now they are ruined. I'm going to have to punish you. Since these are
Buttercups, your punishment is that you cannot have butter for a year."
The man started to laugh and went back to whacking at the Buttercups.
Mother Nature said, "Hey, this is no laughing matter. What do you find
so funny?"
The man looked up and said, "My buddy is over on the other side in
the Pussywillows."
