Howdy ya’ll, this is Ken Billy again. I just wanna share with ya’ll the dangers of poison ivy out on them disc golf courses.

I was a playin’ disc golf the other day and all the sudden I got’s this case of the hershey squirts that was so bad I couldn’t wait till I got to the jon out by the pavilion. So I did what every other country boy would do, I high-tailed it off into the woods ‘round the back of a big ‘ol oak tree and took care o’ business there. Well I wasn’t payin’ much attention to what I was a doing and I grabbed some leaves to wipe and guess what...they were poison ivy. Now I have to do everything standin’ up. Sittin’s too painful.

After seein’ the doc ‘bout this I ain’t real sure what to do with this medicine he gave me ‘cause I couldn’t understand what he was a tellin’ me. I ain’t never seen anyone giggle so much in my life as that dumb doctor. Anywho, I’ll be a gettin’ outta here and ya’ll watch out fer that poison ivy. It ain’t no fun.

You would think a country boy would know what Posion Ivy is and would not have even been squating in a patch of it.

Or Ken Billy ain't to bright, but then we all know the answer to that.

Any home remedies?

I've tried rubbing alcohol, hot showers, diluted bleach, prescription steroid cream, oatmeal baths, epson salt......you name it, i've tried it.

I know the best remedy is to stay in the fairway, in which i do MOST of the time.....but i have a really bad case this time. :confused:

Parkntwoputt recommended Zanfel. "Zanfel works great for getting rid of it. At $40 for 2oz tube it seems outrageous, but I have had mine for over a year, and you just use a pea sized amount and rub it in with water on the patch of poison ivy scabs on your legs, and the next morning, POOF! It's gone. You can get it at drug stores like CVS and Walgreens."

I'll definitely look into that. Thanks.

More ideas?
