So, you have broken your putter mid-round

Two things in response to the thread:

1. I once left my putter at the house by mistake.  Anything 10 ft. and in, I bladed a SW.  Anything outside of 10 ft or so, I used my driver from the chest like a long putter and was surprisingly decent.

2. I once "lost" a putter during a round.  My buddy had left his at the house in his office and I had an Odyssey White Hot #7 in my truck, so I gave it him to use for the round.  Long story short, my buddy gets really pi$$ed when he's playing poorly and was putting horribly all day.

Around the 12th or 13th hole, he missed another short putt and sent my putter flying.  Ultimately, it got stuck in a tree.  Myself and our other two friends are laughing at him pretty good.  So he goes to the cart for his wedge and tosses it up a couple times until he finally knocks my putter loose and down to the ground.

But on the toss that knocked my putter down, his wedge gets stuck in the tree.  By this points, we're all belly laughing.  So not wanting to get another club stuck in the tree, my buddy grabs a rock to toss up at his wedge to knock it loose.  Three or four attempts in, the rock comes down landing squarely on the shaft of my putter a couple inches below the grip -- snapped it clean.  In the midst of our laughter, no one bothered to pick up the borrowed putter that was initially stuck in the tree.

At that point, we all just left and went onto the final few holes.  My buddy lost his Clevelend CG wedge and I lost a putter.  Techincally, I still have it, but haven't replaced the shaft.  It was worth the laughs though.

If only you hadn't been laughing so hard, you'd have noticed the unicorns. They were waiting to fly your group over the rainbow. You could have used some of the leprechaun gold to buy new putters in the proshop.
