i landed the ball on 2nd shot in a ditch-like path filled with lava rocks going across the fairway from one side to the other. i had no shot. so here i go to drop the ball behind the obstacle instead of in front. the width of the ditch/ rocks was only like 5-8 feet with no water. so i drop about 5 feet back, i line up and take my shot thinking no problem to clear. ball hits rock, deflects back to my mouth, rips my right lower lip and breaks my front top right tooth in half. i now have a porcelain tooth replacement.

On a 134 downhill par 3 at my home course, there is a tree where the limbs block the view and the shot into the left side of the green. My threesome teed off on this hole and I saw the weirdest thing!

One of my playing partners hit to the left pin location and stepped to the right to see his ball location. He kept stepping over then after the ball missed to the left he headed to the cart. Just a couple steps later, he looks down. To our surprise the tee marker was impaled in his leg just above the ankle between his two lower leg bones (tibia and fibia maybe?). The 4-6" inch spike had completely punctured his leg. Apparently, his stepped on the tee marker watching his shot and some how it rolled up as his klutzy butt tripped, and buried itself to the hilt in his leg. My other partner removed his Haynes tee from underneath his polo shirt and we made a makeshift bandage. Dude finished the round and played no worse than usual. Well, he plays pretty poorly anyway.

DynamicDave your accident needs to be in a Adam Sandler movie. Nothing like that, one of the first times I was out golfing a couple of years ago these guys pull up and want us to play through. Being the young, eager idiot I was then I tried to destroy my 2nd shot from the fairway with my three wood - at that time the green was about 30 yards outside of my range but hey - they didn't know that.

Anyway, I slice it pretty quickly, it hits the trunk of a tree and literally bounces back inbetween my feet. I couldn't do it again if I tried a million times.

I snapped my Taylor Made Burner driver once by accident with my pitching wedge... don't ask please lol

Things I Am Good at in Golf

- Hitting it in the drink
- Finding the rough with my drive
- Staying in the bunker- Hitting grassburners all the way to the hole- Three putting- Posting over par on 18 in only 9 holes- Swinging and missing with an iron

Played 8 rounds in 4 days with a pair of golf shoes that were one size too small. By the 7th round I could barely walk, had blisters and callouses pretty much on every toe and all up and down the sides of my feet. Possibly the most pain I've been in starting that 7th round.
