Three very pious Jews dressed in long black coats with beards were playing golf.
A guy named Mulhaney wanted to play golf and this was the only threesome in which he could play. So, he joins the Rabbis and plays 18 holes.
At the end of the 18 holes, his score was 104. The Rabbis had shot 69, 70 and 72.
So, he asks the Rabbis, "How is it you guys shoot such good golf?"
The lead Rabbi says, "When you lead a religious life, join and attend the right synagogue, you are rewarded."
Mulhany, a true lover of golf, thinks, "What have I got to lose?" He finds a synagogue near his home, converts to Judaism, joins the synagogue, regularly attends services and leads a holy life.
About a year later, he again plays golf with the three Rabbis. He shoots a 104 and they shoot a 69, 70 and 71. He says to them, "OK, I converted, joined a synagogue, live a religious life and I still shoot a 104. What's the deal?"
"What synagogue did you join?" asks the lead Rabbi.
"Beth Shalom," he replies.
The Rabbi retorted, "Schmuck, that one is for tennis!"
