my buddy was at the driving range and the guy next to him toes one off the barricade, goes backwards, hits a pipe, hits the ceiling, off the wall, takes a bounce and lands in another guys 1/2 drank beer glass for a hole in one!

#1  -  when i was on my high school golf team, I was playing a practice round with the principal and the coach.   I hit a shot on a par 4 that had a chute through the trees.  I blocked my shot to the right, it hit a tree and bounced way left.  Hit another tree and shot over our heads, behind us.  Hit a tree behind us (it was a dense bunch of trees the tee was carved from) and rolled through my principal's feet between us.

#2 -  played with a friend of mine at a nice course in Northern NJ.  We got teamed with a man and his son-in-law, Frank.  Frank did not know much about etiquette or the golf swing.  He almost hit my buddy and I while we were standing parallel 20 yards to the left of him (he shot it sideways and behind him...don't know how to do that).   He also blamed everything on the course for why his "shots" weren't working that day.  Ground was too hard, holes weren't laid out right, greens were bad...etc...

Anyway, going down #16 he drove into a bunch of high grass between plateaus on the fairway.  He gave us a nice dissertation on how badly the hole was laid out and that the PGA would never allow this.  He hacked three times to get his ball out, and ended up picking it up and throwing it towards the green.   His father-in-law turned to us and said "Jesus Christ, it's like playing golf with my daughter."  Then he shook his head and walked away.

Next hole, Frankie almost aced a par 3, but then three putted.  He literally hit 2 feet to the right of the hole and it rolled 30 feet past.  After he missed his par putt he claimed that the greens were in such poor shape that he should have made birdie.  His father-in-law rolled his eyes behind Frank's head and muttered something.   I hope they never played together again....

This was only funny after the victim was laughing when we made it to her.

Playing 18 at a pretty nice course in Palm Coast, FL. It was a slow day, so the (very hot) cart girl had been by three times already, and her and my buddy, one of my regular playing partners, seemed to hit it off. We were teeing off on I think 16, a slight dogleg left par 5, and we saw her coming up the cart path. Since we were on the tee box, she stopped along the outer edge of the dogleg under a tree to let us hit. I hit an absolute bomb, and since we have a standing bet for longest drive on par 5s, I guess he felt like he needed to put a little extra into his tee shot. He hit it, and pushed it right. I lost it through the sun, so I shaded my eyes and looked down the right edge.

A few seconds later, the cart girl fell out of her cart.

We hightailed it to her, and it had ended up going off her knee on the fly. Already had a beautiful welt coming up, but she was actually laughing, and said, "Now you have to get my number. If I have medical bills, you're getting them."

So, everything worked out in the end lol

I'm not going left or right of those trees, ok? I'm going over those trees...with a little draw.

    • Give it time. if Hatton misses another shot he might launch his club & hit someone .
    • That’s a pre Sunday leaderboard I can like.
    • The best was Tommy Gainey in the prostitution sting a few years ago. Now that was funny.
    • Played Musgrove Mill GC today. 72.3/155. First round in 4 weeks and shot 44-39. 2 triple bogies on the front and horseshoed 4 putts today. Overall, 10 fairways, 8 GIR and 31 putts.  Set a goal today to par the 3 toughest holes (4, 18 and 9) and birdie 10 or 12 (which I have never birdied). Parred 4, 9 and birdied 10. Crushed my drive on 18 and had 139 left, but in casual water. Dropped back a little ways and took an extra club. Hit my 8-iron well but it came up short. Bunker shot from wet sand left me an 18’ for my goal. Read the break well but perhaps an inch too much break, and a touch heavy on the speed. Ball circled the hole 270* and tapped in for a bogey. Handicap dropped 0.1.
    • Day 143: 5/18/24 Practiced prior to round today. All aspects of the game.
